Jay Islaam (Comedian & Broadcaster)

Multi-award-winning comedian, broadcaster and journalist. Jay Islaam has written for the likes of The Guardian, Huffington Post and Birmingham Mail about UK arts and culture, and presents a weekly radio show on the subject too. He's one of the most provocative new acts on the British comedy scene, and has carved a niche for himself as a popular podcaster with his "Comedy Cannon" show, which has attracted some very big-name guests and attracted almost 300,000 downloads in the last 18 months. Thanks to his background in broadcasting and marketing he's brutally realistic about the entertainment industry, and what it takes to achieve commercial success as an artist.
