There’s something in our mountain water that’s driving a groundswell in comedic talent
throughout the Basin. Never have more people wanted to make others laugh in our little slice
of the hinterland. In this episode, you’ll hear our own host on stage and in character, and we
visit a raucous amateur comedy night in Nelson, where the scene is exploding. We also
interview Golden’s Ricky Diamonds, whose comedic crooning keeps his audiences
laughing—and groaning—and we check in with social-media giggle disruptor Katie Burrell and
her take on this decidedly difficult but hilarious profession.
