Happy Valentine’s Day gang! 🫶

We know today can be a bit cheesy (and very chocolatey), but it also feels like a good excuse to say something important: we really appreciate you!

This community, the chats, the jokes, the opinions, the showing up - means more to us than you’ll ever know. So consider this a big and very sincere hug from all of us at NextUp.

Hope you’re having a lovely day, however you’re spending it! Can't wait to see you all in the livestream later. 😍

Hannah you Queen!

Drum roll please…🥁

So Hannah shared an idea in the community chat yesterday and we loved it so much that we actually went away and made it real!

We’re doing a two-night livestream watch-along called My Funny Valentine, and it’s basically a curated montage of our favourite comedy moments about love, divorce, dating disasters, failed relationships and the joy (and chaos) of being single.

It’s made from on-demand clips, but we’ll be streaming it together so we can all hang out in the chat in real time and have a laugh.

Both nights start at 7pm GMT!

Also worth knowing: Saturday and Sunday are completely different montages, so coming to both isn’t just re-watching the same thing twice. Featured comedians will be announced soon...

You asked, we delivered! ❤️

New Show Alert! 🚨

After an award-nominated, sell-out Edinburgh Fringe debut, the young and gifted comic, Tadiwa Mahlunge, returns with another 'accomplished, infectiously funny' (Skinny Mag) hour. With more fevered tales of how this political refugee is trying to get out of the corporate rat race without losing his flat, or worse, himself. 'Fearless' (Daniel Kaluuya) ‘Impressive’ (Guardian) ‘Prodigious’ (Kiri Pritchard-McLean’) ‘The circuit might have created another Jimmy Carr.’ (Chortle)

Enjoy! Tell us what you think too! ❣️

Ooooh! I love this. I'll check with the team but it might be possible to 'livestream' current shows on the platform. 😍
