MP3•Главная эпизода

Scott Blanks has never got on stage to tell a joke in his life. But he has done more to nurture and develop comedians and the NZ comedy scene than anybody else.

Scott is a trained accountant who, in 1997, established NZs first comedy club- The Classic on Queen Street.

28 years later the Classic is still there and so is Scott. And both are thriving!

This is a small part of the incredible Scott Blanks story.

We talk the inception of The Classic, which in a previous life was an adult movie theatre.

Some deeply personal stories of love, loss, and resilience. Including the heartbreaking story of him and his wife Bridget’s daughter, Kate.

His first impressions on household names like Dai Henwood, Rose Matafeo, Guy Williams, Ursula Carlson and Rhys Darby.

Also, so many incredible lessons in here for aspiring comedians! Including how long it really takes to go from amateur to professional. And so much more.

Scott is a man who has devoted his life to promoting and championing others, so it was cool to have the opportunity to get to learn a bit about this great New Zealander who has done so much for so many.
