S3 Ep 1. Creating a career niche with Matt Forde (TV impressionist and comedian; host of The Political Party podcast)

Welcome to season 3! We're kicking off with none other than Matt Forde – stand-up comedian, television impressionist and satirist. He's the voice of Donald Trump, Keir Starmer and Boris Johnson on Spitting Image, and has interviewed senior politicians and former Prime Ministers on his podcast, The Political Party. He's also the author of widely acclaimed book Politically Homeless. Before creating a full-time career in comedy and media, he was an organiser for the Labour Party.

We were excited to delve into Matt's career and explore questions like:
- What can we learn from how Matt created his own niche of comedy, politics and football?
- What do you do when the reality of your dream job doesn’t live up to expectations?
- How can people who don’t have family or friend connections get into industries like politics or the arts?

Note: We recorded this episode long before Boris Johnson's resignation – hence some of the references in the show!
