Vlad is a Macedonian comedian who came to the UK to steal jobs (from the Romanians). And that’s one of his jokes that I am trying to make as my own.

If you try to look him up by his name (at least on Ecosia as I use it more than Google), the results will come up with Lenin. And of course that sparked a full funny conversation (it’s important that you don’t take it seriously, in fact, every time the tone of the conversation got serious, Vlad was counting so that we don’t step the mark and transform this into a TED talk).

We spoke about other subjects too (not necessarily in this order) like Borat 2; camping; Dylan Moran; what does Vlad like in the UK and what he misses from back home (by the way, only realized after editing that the sarma is the same as Moldovan/Romanina sarmale); we talked about stereotypes; why I don’t have any friends; what happened when Vlad drank pălinca, how did Vlad get into comedy and how he got the gig at the BBC Stand Up for Live Comedy (Margate) (that involves meeting producers who worked with people like Phoebe Waller-Bridge) and many other cool stuff that will make your day if you listen to this episode.

You can find Vlad on his website (not launched just yet, but you can talk to a very funny and friendly robot meanwhile), on Twitter (@VladTheComedian), on Facebook (Vlad Ilich) and on his Instagram (@vlad_illich).

Please also remember that Vlad promised me a place in his future sitcom :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
