Episode 84
Monday, 3 November, 2025
This week on the Open Mic Comedy Podcast, Marc Cox sits down with musical comedian Jonny to chat about how he first got into comedy and what he has learned along the way. From gigs at open mics to braving the chaos of the Edinburgh Fringe, Jonny shares the highs, the lows, and the moments that made him wonder why he ever picked up a microphone in the first place.They talk about what it takes to actually connect with an audience, why “progression nights” matter for new acts trying to level up, and the pressure to keep pushing your material forward. Jonny also reveals his favourite gig stories, his most painful flops, and what he hopes the future holds for his comedy career. To wrap things up, he gives a delightfully silly reading of a joke he found in a book, perfectly capturing the fun and playful vibe of the show.LINKS:Open Mic Comedy Pod: https://www.instagram.com/openmiccomedypodJonny Brace: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/boybehindthebeardcomedy/————————Music: https://www.purple-planet.com
