Before. During. After.

Today's guest is the brilliant Ben Clover, a wonderful comic who now helps other comics with their shows- which means he's very much tuned in to the BDA vibe. Ben and Sam discuss the power of proper preparation, how that prep gives you freedom to ad lib and why listening back to yourself is rarely as bad as you think.  

What is Before. During. After.?

Before. During. After. is a Smirk Experience podcast about performance; from the inside.

Every week Sam Carrington will sit down with a professional comedian. He'll find out what they do in preparation for a show, what they concentrate on while they're performing and what they focus on when it's done, all to maximise their performance.

Because great performances don't just happen, they're built.
