What happens when comedy royalty sets an actual countdown timer before an interview begins? You end up with a conversation that sweeps across centuries, species, and continents.
In this delightful chat Wil sits down with the legendary Bill Bailey. Together, they explore the chaotic origins of Vaudeville in 15th-century France, the wild experience of buying a angry Eurasian eagle owl out of a Chinese restaurant, and how a brilliantly terrible heckle forced Bill to discover his true voice as a solo storyteller.
They also dig into the profound impact of parenthood, remaining endlessly curious in a "post-truth" world, the secret to surviving long-haul tours, awkward encounters with Sir Paul McCartney, and why performing live remains one of the ultimate human remedies for toil.
