Mo Gilligan: I Don’t Want To Take My Life For Granted
from Mad, Sad and Bad with Paloma Faith
I’ve always LOVED Mo Gilligan (even though he’s from South London and I’m from East, who famously don’t get on!). You might know him from his huge stand-up specials, one of his amazing podcasts or from The Masked Singer, and it was such a pleasure having him on my sofa.We talk all about the madness of stand-up and the never-ending search for the funny in everyday life, from working in retail back in the day (like me 🙌) to booking surprise private jets for his friends. Mo was so honest about how much he’s been affected by getting hate messages online, becoming a dad and how he deals with conflict.His outlook on life is so unflappable and so refreshingly positive. BIG UP MO!You can catch him live on his ‘The Mo You Know’ world tour throughout 2026.
