Guy Montgomery is an award-winning stand-up comedian and improviser from New Zealand who, in spite of his best efforts, is still tragically best known as one half of the international smash podcast the Worst Idea of All Time. A stand-up comedian in the style of everyone you like, his surreal style of bemoaning the everyday has fast won him praise and awards in his native New Zealand and as far west of New Zealand as Australia. It's hard to believe but Guy Montgomery hasn't always been perfect. While most people are gracious and empathetic from birth, this has not been Guy's path. White, straight, and from Christchurch, New Zealand it's been an existence lived in the fog of privilege, and in spite of frantically trying to outgrow his ignorance, there aren't many minorities Guy hasn't denigrated on the road to basic human decency. Embrace this rare opportunity to hear from someone unlearning the various blind spots that made him part of the problem before we were talking about it.
