We’ve had some pondering to do about the fragility of life recently, but don’t worry, skinny national treasure Mark Watson has it covered.
At 41, he’s halfway through his days on earth, according to the life expectancy calculator app he paid £1.49 for. That life is in the best shape a living memory… but one problem remains, and it really is a huge one.
Spiritual enquiry meets high-octane observational comedy as the ‘Taskmaster’ survivor, multi-award-winner and “No More Jockeys” cult leader attempts to cram a couple of years of pathological overthinking into an evening of stand-up. Maybe we’ll even solve the huge problem. Doubt it, though.

Welcome to the inaugural New Mersey Poets’ Blast! evening (upstairs) at Jimmy’s. Blast! is music, Spoken Word and comedy – and features some of Merseyside’s most talented performers.
For Blast #1 they have spoken word from the brilliant Lumenaate and the amazing Wordy Lirpa. Lumenaate’s urban poetry is an absolute delight, and Wordy’s inaugural poetry and music evening Outspoken was one of Liverpool’s cultural highlights of December.
There will be laughs aplenty (he assures us) from the mysterious Barry Comedy, and after the Blast Pop Culture Quiz Spot the Bastard (answer number 7 is ‘Michael Gove’), there will be comedy and spoken word from Saint Vespaluus.
Saint headlined downstairs at Jimmy’s in October, and is a regular on the Liverpool Spoken Word scene. His poems and tales take in gender fluidity and how language abuse controls society, but there’s also lots of references to 80s electro pop stars, Scouse dads morphing into pirates and how the good old days were actually sh*t. Really sh*t!
