About this listen

A hilarious and honest collection of stories, thoughts, and tales of a life in comedy from the award-winning comic Adam Hills.

Adam Hills is one the UK's best loved comedians. For 30 years he has been performing stand-up, hosting TV shows and winning the hearts of a nation.

Taking us from the early days of the Sydney Stand Up scene to hosting his own radio show, touring the world and eventually landing on British TV, Best Foot Forward is a story of a life in comedy. Along the way Adam shares some childhood tales and a few backstage blunders and encounters some fairly famous faces - the likes of Whoopi Goldberg, Billy Connolly, and that guy who sang The Macarena. Yes, him.

This is an utterly hilarious and honest collection of stories about Adam's ups and downs in the world of comedy. It's a lesson in following your heart, being positive and discovering that what makes you different also makes you unique.

Adam’s narration expands topics and delights listeners with his famed singing skills and accents. This happy and positive story won’t unveil any mystery or intrigue; it’ll make you smile stupidly as you skip through Adams comedy career.

Well worth a punt

Gives a little more than the book

I really enjoy Adam Hills as a comedian and the Last Leg show. It was really interesting to hear the back story to his appearance fronting the Last Leg all during the Paralympics in 2012. The grit and determination to stick with his chosen life of a comedian. And the slog leading to the breaks that put him on TV eventually in the UK. But there has to be the talent and the quick whit in the first place. A very entertaining listen 👍

The story of determination.

great being narrated by Adam himself, and he did all the voices of the characters and made mini comments about the narration.

Humourous
