Comedian Phil Reid Discusses Social Media, Nerves and Mistakes of Comedy

This week on the Engaging Marketeer podcast, I'm speaking to comedian, entertainer, pantomime actor and much more, Phil Reid. Phil has been in the stand-up comedy and entertainment industry for well over a decade and has always been interested in making people laugh, whether it be his classmates, audiences full of people or just his dad! In this episode, Phil and I discuss his initial upbringing in comedy, what made him want to pursue the difficult vocation of stand-up, his appreciation of other comedians and the shape of his career today given his versatility as a cruise ship performer and pantomime actor. Phil performs in venues all over country, so if you're interested in stand-up, you may be lucky enough to see him live near you soon enough.
