DOMINIC MAXWELL - THE TIMES
JOE JACOBS - Joe s back like he left his car keys. Why? To swiftly shank away your negative thoughts. Mixing sardonic stand-up with live rap, reach a zen mood guaranteed to offend prudes. Repeat these positive mantras. ‘I have purpose’, ‘Happiness is one drug deal away’, and ‘I will buy many tickets to Joe Jacobs’ show ASAP’. Namaste bumbaclarts. As seen/heard on BBC3, Channel 4, BBC Radio 4, BBC 6 Music & Radio 1XTRA and here on YouTube from the Comedy Store.
