Smile FM Ryan O'Connor Breakfast Show

Ryan sits down with comedian Stuart Taylor

Loading player...
After a very successful run earlier this year that had audiences giggling, guffawing, and relating in all the right places, Stuart is back with his award-winning comedy show Odd Man Out.

In the show Stuart unpacks life as a suburban comedian in his 40s. From his awkward teenage years as a magic-obsessed misfit (spoiler: the audience disappeared) to battling the middle-age amidst the gym bros and yoga moms, he’s been awkward at every stage of life and shares it all with heartfelt hilarity.
Odd Man Out runs from this Thursday till Saturday with a matinee on Saturday.
