Suffering From Imposter Syndrome? Well, Troy Hawke Has The BEST Advice | The Russell Howard Hour 

He's from the Greeters Guild. Worth checking out.

@@ReadySteadyExcel thanks!

sus

The only thing more dangerous than a politician who doesn't achieve anything is a politician who achieves something.

Comedy is dead. I'm not a conservative but one thing I do agree with is that wokism has totally ruined comedy. This wasn't funny. Comedians are terrified of offending and being cancelled nowadays by the twitter outrage brigade.

He has a RU-vid channel - ru-vid.comvideos

@@lauralishes1 Have you not seen Ricky Gervais or Jimmy Carr? They're not afraid. Troy Hawke is a different type of comedian, founder member of the Greeters Guide.

@@pinocleen Thanks, I'm already a subscriber 😊

@@lauralishes1 Oh, go away, repeating your opinion doesn't make it any more powerful.

Genuinly don’t know what that word means

@@lauralishes1 this guy not being funny isnt related to the general belief that comedy is "too woke"

@@lauralishes1 That's just your opinion. I disagree. We both have valid opinions. Get over it.

​@@AJ-fo2pl perhaps you have to be a shameless narcissist to make it in the Tory party

That's interesting to hear. In a public school we're taught to always doubt ourselves and that the [authority figure] always knows more or is better than you in some undefined way. Self belief and confidence is seen as shameful and arrogant. So public schools are full of kids with no self confidence (because puberty) being reinforced that they should always doubt themselves and praise authority, so they never grow up into strong adults. We were told that it doesn't matter what we do because the world will never change and how much can one person change the world. And when individuals that did change the world were brought up, it was always Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin. Always in the negative. Never Tesla, Einstein, Mozart, or Augustus. We were taught helplessness and shame. It explains a lot that privately educated people are seen as arrogant and self serving. Although I'm not sure many of them have the ability to self-reflect, that seems to be connected to intelligence rather than schooling.

"Imposter syndrome perhaps is self examining without self belief". Jesus, did you just fix me? That was bananas insightful.

@@maryntalysenazjwa6096 aww that's sweet of you. Glad my words from 9 months ago that I've completely forgotten about helped someone :) you deserve to believe in yourself! And I hope your self examining leads to becoming the best person you can possibly be :)

I have seen him a few times as compere at our local comedy club. I enjoyed his stuff.

If you'd like to see more of Troy, he has his own RU-vid where he uploads content of him standing outside various buisnesses and pretends to be an employee from "The greeters guild". He compliments shoppers coming and going and is a lovely human being in the process. He also does quite a few stand up shows! Never seen him on stage myself (appart from this instance) but I'm sure he's a good laugh

He has a funny Tiktok channel too he's so funny

@@lpsftw8572 he seems like a genuinely funny bloke, what’s his RU-vid called?

I thought this was a Ted Talk with jokes and the jokes were just the delivery vehicle.

Milo McCabe (Troy Hawke) is a qualified Psychotherapist. He studied at Liverpool University and uses his knowledge in his comedy.

Equivalent of your Home Depot.

@@lauralishes1 why are you copy pasting the same sad reply on multiple comments? You don’t need to step in every time someone expresses their enjoyment just to say you don’t find it funny. If that’s the case, just don’t watch and don’t comment. I thought the act was good, it was a bit different and it made me laugh!

@@lauralishes1 Oh, I completely agree - the current state of British comedy especially is saddening, I mean look at the decline of Frankie Boyle. They're definitely afraid to challenge the status quo for fear of not "succeeding" but I don't think this set was pandering any which way, just some funny stuff + some modern commentary which was quite fair

@@samueljones1262 a lot of people these days feel like they have to win .... Something. They don't like the set so we must agree or they're wrong or some nonsense 😂

@@samueljones1262 Exactly!

Scammer and a bot. Dont follow anything they send.

You're joking right? Comedy is dead. I'm not a conservative but one thing I do agree with is that wokism has totally ruined comedy. This wasn't funny. Comedians are terrified of offending and being cancelled nowadays by the twitter outrage brigade.

@@lauralishes1 Just because you don't think something is funny, that doesn't make it true. Haven't you ever heard of people having differing opinions?

@@lauralishes1 Did you hear the audience laughing? It's not that the comedians aren't funny, it's that you personally don't find them funny.

@@mcjs8640 have you ever noticed when people say theyre not a conservative. What follows is mean nothing sentences and buzzwords.

@@lauralishes1 tell that to every comedy club on the circuit that he regularly takes the roof off of. He smashes it in front of every type of audience whether its working class Liverpool or a London TV audience like this. Also, I bet your blinkered view of comedy is only what you bother to see on TV. There's a thriving circuit of comics in Britain that for the most part push the artform and plenty that are faaaaaar from terrified of offending people. You've clearly never seen people like Freddie Quinne, Fin Taylor, Simon Wozniak, Adam Rowe, Jamie Hutchinson, Kane Brown etc. Saying that, whenever I see a comment like yours I do always wonder what is it you really like hearing jokes about and what words that offend 'the twitter outrage brigade' do you especially miss hearing comics say?

couldnt agree more

Mate he's been touring and doing the circuit for years. I saw him do an hour show early this year and it was brilliantly crafted from start to finish. He murders in front of any crowd, especially in the north and especially Liverpool. Search for his clips from Hot Water Comedy Club where he regularly takes the roof off. He was ready years ago.

Rustle 🤣

@@yasirkadhim2940 he's moving out of comedy to concentrate on his microwave burgers

Dyslexic sorry

@@Akenomyoshi just ribbin ya geezer all good 😂💜

@@Akenomyoshi No hard feelings I just found it funny. I like your positive energy, no need to apologise :)

I have seen him at our local comedy club. Very funny.

Imposter syndrome is just a humble brag - “I have an amazing job but I don’t want you to dislike me or think I’m arrogant because of it.” You never hear some 20 year old freshly trained bricklayer or plasterer saying he has imposter syndrome, do you?
