Rhys Thomas Returns!

About this episode

Rhys Thomas returns to discuss various topics including comedy and personal scars.

Our guest this week is the returning fan favourite, the comedian, director, writer and actor - Rhys Thomas. His last appearance on the podcast was one of the highlights of last year and yet we’d barely scraped the surface. So we had to have him back! We talk rabies, piranhas, ghosts and more in this sprawling medley of scars. For over 30 years, Rhys has been making, and starring in, some of the UK’s most inventive comedy, picking up BAFTA, Emmy and Royal Television Awards along the way. He’s appeared in shows such as The Fast Show, Sirens and Star Stories and he’s also the creator of Dodger, The Kemps and the character Brian Pern, along with countless others.
