Joe Lycett on Provoking Politicians, Sexuality & Harry Styles Lawsuit

The Pieces with Bimini

Tuesday, 22 October 2024 - 44 minutes

One of the UK’s most popular comedians, Joe Lycett has consistently used his platform not just to make people laugh (although he is very funny), but to bring attention to worthy causes.

His viral stunts have included ‘shredding money’ on a live stream in criticism of Qatar’s sponsorship of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, changing his name to Hugo Boss in response to a legal dispute, and launching his own ‘fake’ podcast to bring awareness to water pollution.

In this episode of The Pieces, Bimini and Joe Lycett talk about childhood eccentricities, corporate ethics… and prison life? Plus Joe shares the inside story of his letter to Nigel Farage, his journey with his sexuality and why he’s now turned his hand to art.
