Andy Shaw
co-founder, Comedy Unleashed

Andy Shaw is the co-founder and organiser of London’s free-speech comedy club, Comedy Unleashed. The Times described it as ‘the comedy night that takes the PC out of the stand-up elite’. The club has hosted 100s of comedians who challenge conventional thinking and it has gained a reputation for hosting comics that have been cancelled or banned.

Andy also writes spoofs for the Spectator magazine, including ‘A Handy Guide to Vaccine Passports’ and ‘The new CofE: Church of Extinction’. He hosts the occasional Spectator podcast, ‘That’s Life.
