Did you miss him? Me too! Retired from comedy, here's what comes next...

Daniel Friedman is a Joburg-based writer and performer.

From 2010 to 2020 he performed under the alias Deep Fried Man, receiving a Comics Choice Award, a Standard Bank Ovation Award and 2 International Emmy nominations as a writer and cast member of the television show Late Nite News with Loyiso Gola.

Before this, he self-released two albums as a singer-songwriter. He has also worked as a journalist, columnist and scriptwriter.

In this week's episode, Daniel talks about retiring from comedy, making kids music, writing serious songs, collaborations, low self-esteem, robots taking over the world and mostly it's a LOT of music talk. In fact, if you were looking for some new music suggestions, this would be the episode to listen to!
