ANDY ZALTZMAN
THE ZALTGEIST

With the 3rd millenium almost 2.5% complete, Andy Zaltzman, one of the UK's leading satirical comedians, assesses the state of Planet Earth and its most famous and controversial species - the human race.
 
In the biggest stand-up tour of his career, Andy will attempt to concoct vaguely plausible answers to perennial questions such as What?, Who?, Where?, and above all Why?
 
As chair of The News Quiz since 2020, Andy has brought his inventive brand of satirical comedy to BBC Radio 4's long-running flagship topical comedy show, earning the show multiple awards, critical acclaim and a growing listenership.
 
Andy has hosted The Bugle, one of the world's longest-running and best-loved comedy podcasts, since 2007 and is unquestionably amongst the very best of the one-person list of Satirical Stand-Up Comedians who are also Professional Cricket Statisticians. 
 
He has toured in the USA, India and Australia, wrote a book about the 2008 economic crisis and will be appearing in series 18 of Taskmaster in Autumn 2024.
 
"Andy Zaltzman has revitalised the News Quiz...fizzes with a vitality and sense of fun that's rare in such topical comedy warhorses" Steve Bennett, Chortle
