In this episode, we dive into the witty world of Mark Rivlin, a master of puns and one-liner jokes. Mark takes us on a delightful journey through his comedy career, starting with his early influences and love for collecting vinyl comedy albums. He shares how his passion for wordplay shaped his comedic style and recounts the story of his first gig—an experience that didn't quite hit the spot but ultimately helped him find his comedic persona.
Mark emphasises the invaluable lessons learned from bombing on stage and the camaraderie that thrives among comedians. He gives a shout-out to some rising stars in the industry and delves into his unique approach to crafting jokes, underscoring the significance of audience reaction.
The conversation also ventures into the realm of potentially offensive jokes and the varied reactions they provoke. Adding another layer to his multifaceted life, Mark discusses his role as a cricket umpire and his book 'Secret Umps,’ which offers an insightful look into the world of recreational cricket and the challenges umpires face.
Listeners will hear about the trials and tribulations of umpiring, dealing with on-field behaviour and abuse, and why Mark prefers the traditional test matches over shorter formats. The episode also touches on monetising comedy writing and the vital importance of supporting fellow comedians.
Join us for a fascinating and laughter-filled conversation with Mark Rivlin, where comedy and cricket intersect in the most entertaining ways.
