Gianmarco Soresi and Russell Brand record a London episode covering Soresi’s upcoming UK tour and his family’s history in Northern Ireland, including his great-grandfather’s ice cream shop destroyed during the Troubles. They discuss the cultural nuances of Irish neutrality, the parallels between Irish and American civil rights movements, and the complexities of post-Brexit identity. The conversation also touches on recent comedy controversies, the impact of the pandemic on live performance, and the challenges of navigating offensive humor across different cultural lines.
