About this episode

Comedian Andrew Mensah joins us with tales of playing Padel with Wayne Rooney, the economics of Air Force One trainers and why there’s nothing better than sitting down for a game of Articulate.

There’s also a fascinating insight into the way British society interfaces with its cultural landscape; Andrew’s account of how he managed to move from the gang culture of his childhood to become well-loved fixture on the comedy circuit is the kind of thing you don’t hear often.

Andrew is always gigging around the UK. You can keep up to date with everything at andrewmensahcomedy.com

Andrew hosts his hugely popular weekly comedy podcast ‘We Saw That’ alongside Gbemi Oladipo. They record live shows at the Top Secret Comedy Club in London then that becomes the podcast.
