Your host for the evening is a former chemistry teacher turned stand-up comedian and artist. Now liberated from the curriculum (and the classroom dad jokes), he brings his knack for engaging even the most disengaged to the stage, serving up playful material with a cerebral twist.
Matt Hobs has been performing on the comedy circuit since 2012. A proud Bristolian, scientist and silly sausage. Drawing on his background as a scientist, Matt explains science and scientific principles. He makes complicated concepts simple, understandable and hilarious.
Scottish comedian Lynsey Smart is a former psychiatric genetics researcher turned stand-up, known for her delightfully chaotic energy and flair for the ridiculous. She weaves stories with sharp wit making her a standout voice in the South West’s thriving, nerd-friendly comedy scene.
Sophie is a stand-up comedian, writer, and presenter with a passion for science and has plenty to say about everything else, too. Known for blending sharp comedy with curious facts, she’s your go-to guide for the weird and wonderful, including the surprising sex lives of animals.
Lloyd draws on his science background to craft original premises that take unexpected, surreal turns. His unique comedic style is a refreshing presence on the Bristol circuit, offering audiences a new appreciation for life’s everyday oddities.
