Great way to start a full fringe day..great host moving effectively through interesting topics and not too heavy.

At 9:30 am, a great way to start your fringe festival day. On 14th Harun Musho apostrophe D proved to be an able generous host and as a result I look forward to seeing his show Harun Musho'd reads bad political memoirs (so you don't have to.) A Political Brreakfast showcases different comedians each morning and their casual, occasionally funny, often insightful comments give you a steer on whether or not you might want to see their shows. I took the flyers; that's the rest of my day sorted!

This show is everything thats wrong the fringe - Panel uninformed, unprepared and painfully unfunny

Funny and interactive, the casual manner of the show put you quickly at ease. With a diverse panel, the discussion takes a brief look at global politics but without strong polarising views. A good show for those with a basic knowledge of politics looking for a laugh at the news of today. (Also enjoyable as a younger member of the audience (age 16)).

With Chris O'Neil it’s not just their material that shines—have a stage presence that is simply magnetic. Their confidence and charisma are undeniable, and they command the floor with a natural ease that only the best in the business can achieve. Watching them work a room is like watching a master at their craft; every gesture, every pause, every look is perfectly calculated to maximize the impact of their jokes.

This was one of the funniest things we’ve seen this year. And ‘dick-free humour’ , as one of the panellists said. Yay! Humour for grown-ups.

This was described as Question Time meets Have I got news for you only it lacked political knowledge and it wasn't funny (despite the panel's attempt to convince us otherwise by laughing very loudly at their own 'jokes').
