Comedian Andy Zaltzman entertains with podcasting through the ages from Jesus Christ to Andy Zaltzman.

Andy has firmly established himself in the vanguard of British comedy with his unique brand of political satire. In spring 2012, Andy performed a run of sold out shows in New York where he also recorded two sets on John Oliver's New York Stand Up Show for Comedy Central. Alongside John Oliver, Andy co-wrote and hosted two series of the BBC Radio 4 show Political Animal, based on their satirical live stand-up show. Andy continues to host and curate Political Animal, with ongoing live performances featuring special guest stand-ups, including a sell-out London run at the Soho Theatre in Spring 2012. Together, John Oliver and Andy have co-written and presented The Bugle, an ongoing series of satirical podcasts which produced over 178 episodes in association with The Times, before becoming independently run in January 2012. Andy has written and hosted Andy Zaltzman's History of the Third Millennium, Series 1 of 100 and has made regular appearances on topical panel quiz show The News Quiz and The Now Show for BBC Radio 4. His diverse TV and Radio features have earned him Time Out's recognition as "The best political comedian in the business."

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
