About this episode

S02 E16 Jon Savage's Whats Your Poison podcast:

Trevor Gumbi is a monolith of stand up comedy in South Africa. He made it bigger than most people can dream of and then blew his career down the toilet in a haze of partying and drugs and a very public divorce. In this episode, Trevor Gumbi tells you stories of failing, of interventions and of pme one of the most remarkable recoveries you've ever heard - in all it's brutal glory. I hope you enjoy this inspirational chat with one of my favourite comedians on planet earth!
