DALISO CHAPONDA 
TOPICAL STORM

Daliso Chaponda has been writing jokes about the news for over a decade on Have I Got News For You, Radio 4' News Quiz, and Australia's Good News Week. In fact, he's seen the news from both sides, having been in the tabloids himself.

However, recently, the news has been so absurd, chaotic and overwhelming that it more or less mocks itself. Where do we go from here?
 
Topical Storm is Daliso's response - a show not about THE news but about news itself. 
 
“Full of sharp one-liners and well crafted gags... a real talent” Metro
