I would love to go for a pint or two with Simon, every interview I see with him just shows him to be a witty, well read, introspective and thoroughly interesting person.
I'm 71 and I recently connected all the dots. My grandfather, who lived an hour East of the city and passed right before I was born, was a Chicago Gangster. No one ever questioned the old Packard in the back of the woods with bullet holes. My teen parents inherited a house from him. It was 2 hours farther away, down a quarter mile road, in a cornfield. NO one would choose to build a house there....unless you didn't want to be found. It had a noisy ghost.
@@icarusjumped2719 They moved the house up to the main road after I started school because I had to walk that. It was down the road from the state mental hospital and we would have "visitors". It later became a prison where mike tyson "visited".
Agree so much about motherhood. I went back to work about 7 months after having my first baby and hated it, felt guilty all the time. This now seems to be reversed and women feel guilty staying at home. When i was having my 2nd child of 3, I decided I would give up work while the children were small. There was no help with nursery fees in those days so my salary was basically just covering childcare anyway. Since research shows that children do better when they are cared for my their mother for at least the first year, I wish there was an option for women to access the funding for childcare if looking after their own children for a few years. That time goes in a flash and is very precious.
I've been fortunate enough to see Simon live, albeit only once so far. He's a phenomenal comedian, and I wish he came up North (Manchester) far more often. Check out his Oxford address. The guy is a titan.
Going back to the 00's I saw Simon Evans several times at the Comedy Store in Leicester Square, and can honestly say that this fella was always a pleasure to listen to, not to mention laugh out loud funny.
If you want more Simon Evans, may I recommend his radio programme "Simon Evans goes to Market"? (If you haven't heard it already!) Informative and hilarious!
I found myself wondering throughout this interview why it was so much more compelling than other media that's crossed my laptop this morning. At the end, he talks about "constantly exposing himself" through improv. I think that must be a big part of it.
I was devastated to find out my biological dad wasn’t my dad. No one told me growing up. Had a horrible sense something was ‘wrong’. Guessed later in life. No one has been able to help me fill in the details and help me find my biological dad. Lots of stories I’m hearing about people falling into cults are from people with similar issues. Leaves a serious unconscious vulnerability in people. I’m glad it’s starting to be spoken about.
I am sorry for the pain you went through. Can you please elaborate? How did this hurt you or play out for you? Was it the deception or the lack of biological connection with the father? I am a young woman. Many of my friends want so bad to be mothers that they consider impregnating themselves with donor sperm. I am always the conservative party mood killer, telling them how they should consider the emotional and practical effects for a child, not to know their biological father. I would not do that, even if I had all the resources to raise a child without the father. I just want my child to be loved by their two parents. They rip me apart with liberal arguments. I tell them, do what you want, but prioritize the well being of your child. How do you feel about this question?
@@anapontopina86 she was a single pregnant Irish woman - shame of that probably pushed her to get married. He knew. No deception there. I was never told though. I’m terrified for all these surrogacy babies because it DOES have an impact and lots of them won’t be allowed to explore their feelings because the parents have been entirely selfish. The irony is, I’m a single woman and haven’t been able to have children. Desperately upset and considered the sperm donation but I couldn’t do it to the child. We know the consequences for children not having fathers now, even if people try to shut that debate down. Unless surrogate parents become wise in how to support and love these children they are setting them up for serious vulnerabilities.
@@tg4796 thanks for sharing! I guess every situation is different but I suppose many who say that everything is good are trying to cope somehow. Your voice is important, to show that adults should behave as adults... that children should always be the priority
@@tg4796 I know a Lesbian couple who had two babies by surrogacy. I believe the man is allowed to father 5 children.{he got paid £5,000 for each sperm donation].He bears no responsibility, but the children are allowed to know who he is? when they are older.[not sure how that works]. The couple in question are lovely people and obviously wanted to have that family life, but I to have wondered about the effect on the children and their 'identity' when they are older. I thought it is a selfish act on the parent's part because it was all about their fulfillment, although i genuinely like them.I wonder at the man donating his sperm, he didn't know what sort of people they were ,he just wanted the £5,000
I was fortunate to see Simon's 'The Work of the Devil', both before and after the pandemic, and was keenly aware (and delighted) at the differences I noted. Both times it was a facinating, shocking, and emotional trip, laden with humour and call-backs - a Simon Evans speciality in every show I've seen - that I look forward to seeing again if the DVD is ever released. Delighted to see there is a new show - 'Have we Met?' - but no dates that I can attend, yet.
Ah, I always loved the " Indian Chap" joke! Always so astounded at how devastatingly intelligent and insightful stand up comedians are - obviously including Konstantin and Anton. Sometimes conceals the empathy and depth of their understanding of humanity. Big fan of Simon from way back, and latterly of triggernometry (about 4 years ago). Thank you.
I stayed at home for our first three children, but did enter the work force after the birth of our forth son. Although I was happy to work, it was exhausting juggling my energy between my job, home, husband, children and myself. The largest worry was if he was in good care. I don't know if fathers concern themselves as much about the kind of child care their children are under, but moms do worry about it. Find a good caregiver, pay her very well, and moms then can work in peace.
Or don't put so much financial pressure on families and then we won't feel the need to go back out until the kids are older and in school. Part time work should also be more prevalent. That would be ideal. Us mothers are just running ourselves into the ground doing 'it all'. Now with (peri)menopause kicking in to a large portion of the work force, its aging us quicker than it used to. And its showing cannot keep up with the men... we need to accept that.
It made you who you are today and I'd bet money you're more resilient than most people Let the hate go and you'll thrive. I had 2 of them raising me lol took me years to "appreciate" how I turned out ...yes cynical, distrustful, insecure etc haha but I am also resilient, can read people very well, and very independent , especially from 'the masses'. I guarantee you have traits most people you know, don't.
I’ve still never met, nor do I know if he’s still alive, my biological father. He was born in Poland in about 1934 or 35, and as you can probably guess, was unfortunately caught up in the Soviet side of the early part of WWII. Unlike the more well know horrors of Poles and Jews and everyone in between getting transported to the well known concentration camps in Poland etc, my father and his family were taken deep into Siberia in similarly unimaginable conditions, to even more unpleasant destinations. I’m no expert on the finer political machinations that transpired, but the Soviets changed their minds when they realised just how far old Adolf was going, and set them free. From what scant info I’ve gleaned, from Siberia my father ended up in a displaced persons camp in Tengeru, Tanzania, where the family lived for a few years, until being brought to England in the early 50s, where they moved about in various displaced Polish hostels and camps, before finally settling in Devon in the 60s. I was born in 1975, and when I came along, according to my late mum, he bottled it (I don’t judge him at all for that by the way!) and had it on his toes. I grew up knowing bits and bobs about him from mum, but it’s not until you mature and live and experience the true gamut of the human condition, that you understand the gravity and history of your own little life. I adore Simon Evans, and have only watched a few minutes of the video, but I already know this is going to be a good watch. All the best, and apologies for the long, waffling comment!
Fascinating story. Your dad would obviously have had ptsd. In a time when it wasn't even acknowledged... hard on you and your mam still. Most men, rightly or wrongly, believe their families would be better off without their presence. But you're so right, only when we become full adults can we truly understand our parents and others. Then we can soften our attitudes and views towards them.
I mean no disrespect, but for those of us who are not English, could you explain to us what the idioms, "He bottled it and had it on his toes" means? I couldn't find it anywhere on the internet.
@@miketalley5476 None taken! Bottled it basically means, He got scared, or, he chickened out, and to have it on his toes means, to run away, or to disappear very quickly, something like that!
Reading your story reminded me of my weird heritage. I am Polish. My paternal grandpa was born 1912 and in WW2 he was arrested and tortured for being in the underground resistance. Inprisoned in old concentration camps in Austria -Dahau Matthausen and Gusen. After war he married my grandma, who was a kid of a widdow, that out of fear got volksdeutsch status (basicaly germanised, last name changed etc). Pops had huge ptsd he was very untrustful, had problems with saying loving words or hugging etc. Only way he knew to show love was by gits. But they had a good marriage, these two one that was a victim of the german machine and one that seeked refuge in becoming germanized. He passed in 1978, after being taunted by militia got a heart attack. My grandma never remarried even she was in her 44 at the time. Not even going to start on my maternal side ;) Cheers from Poland
Simon has such an engaging personality, it’s always a pleasure to listen to him. And what a cultural hinterland - how many standups could casually refer to works by Camille Paglia, Thomas Kuhn and the fine Scottish poet Don Paterson just twenty minutes into the interview. He’s obviously had an interesting and not altogether happy life before turning to comedy. Excellent guest FF and KK, as was Dawkins the other week. May I make a few other suggestions? Too late for Christopher Hitchens alas, but Marina Hyde would be a corker (for all sorts of reasons, down boy down), Thomas Pikkety, maybe a bit hard to get hold of these days but if you don’t ask you don’t get, and parliamentary sketch writer Simon Carr from the Independent because he’d be wickedly funny.
I think the biggest crime against women of the "you can have it all" philosophy is that it belittles motherhood, it makes it a sort of hobby, when in fact it is very hard, and very important.
Interesting about the concept of Ashkanazi traits...(I also am 50% Ashkanazi genes). I lind of agree that there are genetic traits linked to ethnicity but its also a dangerous road to go down....
After hearing about the low testosterone epidemic (and the gay frogs from toxins) and having symptoms of fatigue, low libido, and slothfulness and having just turned 40, I decided to get my levels tested. It was a whopping 1010 ng/dl or in the ~99th percentile. The only masculine thing about me is my affinity for intense workouts. Otherwise I’m a slightly effeminate sloth.
Those doctors who sired dozens should have considered whether they really deserved such excessive genetic representation. If you're going to breed people like horses, at least have some standards.
The new economy would be a return to more eyes per acre in agriculture. Many of us wish we could be farmers. unfortunately, it wasn’t economically feasible. We need more natural intelligence on the landscape to turn the world into an agricultural park. Good for humans and wildlife. Let the robots make the machines and deliver the goods.
Nature and nurture (and the individual) will likely never be fully understood (and more so as/if 'science' increasingly becomes self-serving) where you ultimately and probably end up reading as much (and what you want to) into it, where your individuality is actually the choice that you CAN make and have/make a sense of self-determination from.....despite the rest of the mix and all of its grey probability whether ultimately real, imagined or somewhere in between when it comes to self identity or identity as assigned by others.
So many inquantifiable hereditary factors that we will never be able to research, but that likely have huge impact on the person. We can't really research genes as far as areas like instinct are involved, only theorize.
Religion is true, or it is not, you can't fake faith for another purpose. I hear this interesting man talking about the "superstitious" part of religion, which -- according to him - is " not important. Wrong. And there is so much more about God which he does not know, and also something which he could know by simply looking into the life of those people called saints - particularly those saints whom the secular culture labeled as superstitious, without knowing them in the least.
Growing tired of having my chain yanked by these guys. Whoever advised them that this business model (the same model used by old fashioned TV stations) was going to work should not be listened to. I found Triggernometry appealing when they were hungrier and less manipulative of their audience. Unsubscribed.
@@mr7wi not sure I understand you? 'Subtle'? I don't take Trig seriously - it's all quite 'light.' Is that what you mean? So much more interesting stuff out there - in fact, there's too much good stuff to choose from. I switch off rather than on, disappear into old films and documentaries. Far more calming and informative on different levels. Anything in particular you'd like them to do?

Superb episode. Thanks.
The best interviews are created when the guest is not constantly interupted. Take note BBC Radio and TV.
Family reunions will be lit.. One of us! One of us! One of us!
His 'The Work Of The Devil' show was an absolute work of art. A glorious show.

Nature and nurture (and the individual) will likely never be fully understood (and more so as/if 'science' increasingly becomes self-serving) where you ultimately and probably end up reading as much (and what you want to) into it, where your individuality is actually the choice that you CAN make and have/make a sense of self-determination from.....despite the rest of the mix and all of its grey probability whether ultimately real, imagined or somewhere in between when it comes to self identity or identity as assigned by others.
