Marcel Lucont, Vix Leyton, Daman Bamrah and Ola Labib!

Vive le France! Or vive les France? Or la France? We're not sure, but we know who is - brilliant stand up comedian Marcel Lucont! Who chats about his 'best of' show at the Leicester Comedy Festival. Comedy Arcade's Vix Leyton spends four hours on a train to Leicester only to jump on a Zoom with us instead. And 'Wrap Game' comedians Ola Labib and Daman Bamrah go back-2-back to see how much they know (or don't know) about each other! Listen to the show live from 9pm tonight live from Europe's biggest comedy festival or subscribe to the podcast in the JACK Radio Player app.
