      Does it have to be either-or? Most people can decern between criticism that comes from good faith and wanting to improve, and criticism that comes from spitefulness and the politics of revenge. Kumar is clearly in the latter category.

    I love Nish's work; he is always my favorite guest on The Bugle, and his performance on Taskmaster was absolutely classic. His comedy comes from a place of conviction, and that's admirable. I hope he takes those bread rolls and turns them into delicious, delicious sandwiches.

    Thanks for the interview-it's really interesting to hear about Nish's pov in a more serious format.
    After reading the BBC report about how the BBC had a hiring policy that excluded the formal hiring of people linked to left-wing parties during the 70s (and later... and this policy legacy and problems for true diversity and equality in the production teams etc) I am always really curious about how some of these programmes get made and the experiences of the people who make them (especially after David Olusoga spoke out abouthis experiences).
    I hope that things keep improving. In television and in general.
    Things are changing - unfortunately the blow back (as evidenced in the comments) is part of it.
    Deeply appreciate the work of both Nish and Krishna GM. Thanks for the insights.

    Telling how the only event he remembers from 2017 was when some "Nazis walked about" and not the terror attack at Westminster Bridge that killed four innocent people, the Manchester Arena booming where 22, mostly young girls, were murdered, Borough Market attacks where 8 were killed and 48 were injured, and the Parson Green bombing. Not to forget the endless terror attacks that took place in Europe. It must have slipped his memory.

      when did he say that Charlottesville was the only event that took place in 2017? He just said it happened (which it did). Would be an interesting new moral rule to put into place that when mentioning one bad thing that happened someone has to mention an extensive list of all other bad things that happened that year

      The difference is that the terrorists you mention were challenged by society as a whole. There was no acceptance for them on either side of the political spectrum. Conservatives however were fine with Nazis marching through the streets. Just like you prove with your comment.

    All performers - musicians, comedians, actors - are interconnected with the audience. I think a good performance is a conversation and conversations cannot be objective in the same way a journalist narrates facts and events. Comedy is a work of art and that is something that the artist creates. Aristotle reflected on the purpose of theatre and theatrical schools in the Society and how humans, being complex social creatures, should reflect on the Society for their own personal benefit and for the benefit of the Society.
