'Anti-woke' comics land a management deal
Comedy agency Blue Book Artist Management has signed up ‘anti-woke’ comedians Konstantin Kisin and Francis Foster.
The stand-ups host the podcast and YouTube channel Triggernometry, which takes aim at what they see as a ‘cancel culture’.
Launched in February 2018, they now average more than 3 million monthly views on YouTube. A recent episode with professor and culture warrior Jordan Peterson attracted more than 280,000 views alone.
Kisin hit the headlines in 2018 when he went public with his decision not to sign a ‘safe-space’ agreement to treat topics such as racism and homophobia in a respectful way before performing at SOAS Students' Union in London.
Blue Book’s roster also includes Micky Flanagan, Zoe Lyons, Daliso Chaponda and Mat Richardson.
