See you in the livestream chat! Don't forget the snacks.

Omg hey everyone!

Yes, I know - it’s technically my first post of the year on here. Please keep the “haven’t seen you since last year” jokes brief and move on. 😉

Hoping you all rang in 2026 in one piece! Won’t lie I still have a slight headache, but that’s on me…

Anyway! I’ve got some seriously good news to kick things off: three brand new shows dropped on NextUp today. Yes, you read that right. All recorded at the last Edinburgh Fringe. All finally yours to enjoy. 🎉

First up we have the much-anticipated debut show about suffering (and smiling) from stand-up Ayoade Bamgboye. Swings and Roundabouts is about going nowhere fast, being too British to stop apologising, and too Nigerian to stop shouting. Watch it here! 

Then we have Molly McGuinness’ Slob is about what it means to be…well, a slob. To Molly, life didn't get any better than a good buffet and belting out Meatloaf down the pub karaoke. But when the Salford-born libertine was unexpectedly laid out by a life-threatening illness, Molly was forced to slob out whether she liked it or not. Watch it here! 

And last but not least, Andrew O’Neill takes to the screen in his show, Escape. To quote the Telegraph’s 5 star review, ‘No show at this year's Fringe has made me laugh harder...a dizzyingly eclectic set.’ Watch it here!

Enjoy, NextUppers - and welcome to 2026! Can’t wait to spend it laughing with you. 😎

Hehe! Merry Crimbo you awesome people! 🎄
