Matt sits down with comedian and actor Janine Harouni. Janine has been making waves in the comedy scene both in the UK and the US with her sharp wit and fearless storytelling. From her critically acclaimed stand-up specials to her rising presence on social media, Janine brings a fresh and candid perspective to the stage. During our conversation, Janine shares her journey from West End actor to stand-up comedian, and how a life-changing car accident led her to re-evaluate her path. She opens up about moving back home with her parents, who hold vastly different political views, and how this experience became the catalyst for her first stand-up special. We delve into the challenges and healing power of using humor to navigate personal and familial complexities. Janine also discusses the evolution of narrative comedy, the influence of her late director and collaborator Adam Brace, and the nuances of performing across different cultures. We explore how social media has impacted the world of comedy, her approach to handling online comments, and how her life experiences as a new mother continue to shape her material and outlook on comedy. Janine offers an insightful and heartfelt look at using humor to bridge divides and connect with audiences on a deeper level.
