Richard Gill is a comedy enthusiast and fan. He has been watching comedians on stage for almost 50 years, having seen his first show as a seven year old in 1974. He witnessed the growth of alternative comedy through the late 1970s and 1980s, the storytelling and pun masters through the 1990s into the 2000s, and has witnessed many of the great comedy stars of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Richard writes a blog based on his experience as an audience member. He does not see himself as a reviewer, rather as someone who is passionate about comedy who wants to share this passion with others. Alongside his blogs, he began recording podcasts with comedians in 2020.
