In this new series, Daliso is in a more philosophical mood. We find him working through his thoughts, feelings, and opinions by sharing his stories with a live audience in his hometown of Manchester.

Episode 3 - 'comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable'

After experiencing the threat of arrest for a joke he once made about Malawi, and as he sometimes gets in trouble for talking about certain topics, this week Daliso is contemplating attitudes towards censorship and freedom of speech, and he's trying to work out where he stands. He gives examples of the kind of things that have caused controversies in the past and asks the audience what they think.
