He's made a list, checked it twice, and now he's ready for action. Motorcyclists, lateral thinking, nitrous oxide, feather head-dresses – is there nothing this man won't gently mock, having first really thought about it at length to avoid offending anyone?

It's 2017 and life looks very different. Finding himself up-rooted from his adoptive city and press-ganged into a pastoral existence by a fiendishly cunning girl, Stu considers the big questions:

·        How much should one spend on an ear-thermometer?
·        Is everywhere West of Leigh Delamere basically Fairyland?
·        How much compromise is too much?

It's not like he's had a baby or anything. Well, not until around the 35th minute. But there's still plenty there to enjoy if you hate/are disinterested in/loathe kids.

Host of the bewilderingly popular “Comedian's Comedian” podcast, with over 6 million downloads worldwide, and described by one listener as “an assault on the magic of comedy...”

“It's incredible Goldsmith doesn't have his own TV show by now” say The List. Well, gather round for a performative experience which will be similar to watching telly in a room full of people, but unfettered by expensive cameras, professional direction or adequate lighting...

No confetti-cannons, video-screens or artistically-suspect nudity. The “consistent fringe must-see” (Broadway Baby)
brings you stripped-back, gimmick-free* stand-up about life and how not to not cope with it.
