- Comedian Andy Zaltzman entertains with podcasting through the ages from Jesus Christ to Andy Zaltzman.
Andy has firmly established himself in the vanguard of British comedy with his unique brand of political satire. In spring 2012, Andy performed a run of sold out shows in New York where he also recorded two sets on John Oliver's New York Stand Up Show for Comedy Central. Alongside John Oliver, Andy co-wrote and hosted two series of the BBC Radio 4 show Political Animal, based on their satirical live stand-up show. Andy continues to host and curate Political Animal, with ongoing live performances featuring special guest stand-ups, including a sell-out London run at the Soho Theatre in Spring 2012. Together, John Oliver and Andy have co-written and presented The Bugle, an ongoing series of satirical podcasts which produced over 178 episodes in association with The Times, before becoming independently run in January 2012. Andy has written and hosted Andy Zaltzman's History of the Third Millennium, Series 1 of 100 and has made regular appearances on topical panel quiz show The News Quiz and The Now Show for BBC Radio 4. His diverse TV and Radio features have earned him Time Out's recognition as "The best political comedian in the business."
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event.

The audience were confused because they were expecting a pretentious TED talk but what they got was a mountain of hilarious bullish*t from the legend that is Andy Zaltzman.
He is pretentious. In a Jewish atheist comedian kind of way. Just because you find him funny doesn't mean he is. He is the definition of pretentious upper class suburban white humour.
He’s a self loathing pun machine gone haywire. I get what you’re saying but i think you are reading him wrong.
the audience didn't realise they were in the presence of the man who holds the record for the longest pun run in the history of written or spoken word. The man is a legend, arguably even more so
Which specific pun run was that?
Andy Zaltzman is a gift to humanity.
A rocket historian, quality. Zaltzman is a genius.
I'm a simple man, you see. I see Andy Zaltzman, I click.
That's what we need at TEDx in NZ, top class comedians ...
at least you could hear the buglers in the room ^^
I LOVE ANDY SO MUCH!
Terrible audience. Legendary Andy Zaltzman.
A brilliant comedy genius
That Kipling joke was brilliant! What's wrong with this lifeless crowd?!
Gonzo_Python I didn't get it. The bat signal looks like it spells 'if'?
***** "If" is the title of a poem by Rudyard Kipling. Projecting the word onto the night sky will cause it to increase in size. Therefore, you'll end up with "a big if". :)
Gonzo_Python aha! Too good. Cheers man!
I'm going to see him live tonight. Can't wait
Exactly what I was looking for, thanks!
I actually love how people don't laugh at the subtle jokes, but he continues to keep them subtle. He's one of the few comedians /humans who does not pander to people not getting stuff by dumbing down.
Shit audience. And at Oxbridge. We're fucked as a country.
Jimmy Biggs my guess is that it was at the 'bridge' part they are dour fukkers from my experience of the tabs and the locals
Hello Buglers
I liked it, but the audience was weak.
I love this man!
14:02 . Leave it to Andy to over run his time. There's no email section today, unfortunately.
To bad there were no buglers among the audience.
"No email section today because John has to... f**k right off to Bermuda"
Premium bullshit mountain Andy! Maybe a bit too high-brow for your audience.
Andy Z always funny my type of humour . So is Alexei sayle. Some people just don't get It
These people must be so confused.
Absolutely shocking crowd. No appreciation for this legend - I don’t think they got half his jokes.
Awful audience
God bless you atheist prince of pun.
Two of the Three Stooges is missing.
Substitute Mohomoed for Jesus ...and the Old Bill would have been down on him like a ton of bricks
ruclips.net/video/lqXWyaBNIfs/видео.htmlm56s - you can clearly hear the sound of Fred Spofforth from "Fred and Grace" as part of 2 men out :)
Dreadful crowd. Andy is way too quick for them
'WHO IS THIS GUY? I CAME HERE TO LEARN ABOUT PODCASTS'
JESUS LOVES YOU. HE RALLY DOES.
Jesus does rally?
You are making mockery of the one that gave you the gift of life. He is God himself. Please be careful what you say, He is calling on you in mercy.
Doesn't matter, he forgives!
Mercy has horrible service. He should try AT&T!
Lol grow up
