Pulp Kitchen: A Film Podcast

This week we're joined by comedian, actor and presenter Jack Whitehall.

We talk about his journey from stand-up comedy before the rise of social media, to becoming one of Britain's biggest comedy stars. Jack discusses hosting SNL UK, what it was really like working alongside The Rock, and how his career has evolved across stand-up, television, film and presenting.

We also chat about audition disasters, navigating Hollywood, and the changing landscape of comedy.

Jack is currently starring in Virginia Woolf's Night & Day, in cinemas now, and will be heading back on tour in 2027. Find tickets and links below.
