In this episode of the Open Mic Comedy Podcast, Marc sits down with Neil Ben—a seasoned comedian and prop master—for a fun and insightful chat about his comedy journey. Neil shares how he went from writing sketches for kids’ TV to performing stand-up, and why getting instant feedback from an audience is so important to him.
Neil talks about the highs and lows of the open mic scene, the art of directing yourself on stage, and how his comedy has evolved to include clever visual puns and quick one-liners. There’s also a lot of talk about feedback—giving it, taking it, and using it to grow as a comedian. We discuss the background in writing, directing for some of the biggest channels in TV around the world.
Neil also opens up about the challenges disabled comedians face, like accessibility issues in venues, and shares his dream of creating TV stories that feature strong disabled characters. It’s a great conversation about the power of comedy to entertain, connect, and to make a difference.
