Guy Montgomery: NZ Comedy & Podcast Pioneer, 10 Years of TWIOAT, The Guy Mont-Spelling Bee

Guy Montgomery is one of New Zealand’s best and most popular comedians who has been a fixture on Kiwi screens for over a decade.  He’s been on Taskmaster, 7 Days, Celebrity Treasure Island and Have you Been Paying attention, while simultaneously selling out standup shows across Australia and New Zealand.  Last year, his new show: Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont-Spelling Bee premiered on Three to rave reviews and his new standup show took out the coveted Fred Award at the NZ comedy festival for best new show.  In his spare time, he also created NZ’s most popular podcast called The Worst Idea of All Time – which has had over 10 million downloads.  In this episode we talk about the time he slept in a New York sewer for a week, his most outrageous bets, why he had a stand-off with my father-in-law at a recent comedy show, his rise through the NZ comedy ranks, reflections on the life of a step-dad and much, much more.  Guy has reached the summit of NZ comedy and it’s easy to see why. He’s quick, he’s fun and silly but he’s also a deep thinker with a wicked work ethic and desire to keep growing. This was such a fun one.  Listen on iheart or wherever you get your podcasts from, or watch the video on Youtube.   If you’d like to hire one of our guests to speak at your function or event, flick us a message by going to B2Bspeakers.co.nz.  This episode was brought to you from the Export Beer garden studio.
