Tom Stade is one of Canada’s finest comedy exports, co-writing Frankie Boyle’s ‘Tramadol Nights’ and storming hundreds of international tour dates since he moved to the UK with his wife and kids in 2003.

Another one of CCC’s favourite Canadians is larger than life stand up Craig Campbell. Craig has guested on the live radio feature several times since it’s launch in 2009 and always arrives with at least two backpacks full of banter. He talks to Sam Skitt from a comedy festival in the snowy mountains of Canada, full of beans and ready for some ‘extreme’ high energy story telling.

Multi award winning comedian and activist Mark Thomas decided to go rambling in the middle east and walked the entire length of the Israeli Separation Barrier crossing over to both sides of the divide with open eyes and ears. In his latest show ‘Extreme Rambling’ he describes his 750 km adventure including stories of his stoning, six arrests and his hummus overload. CCC’s Sam Skitt asks him how he balances comedy with politics and how he feels Britain’s youth are dealing with their ever-changing economic climate.
