About

"Life can't just be the humdrum, the mundane and the routine before the inevitable slide of disease, decay and death. Why can't we sneak in a bit of awesome, a tad of amazing and maybe a smidge of wonderful?" A forest canopy opening onto a huge vista would be enchanting for some but Ian's ancestors wondered the desert for forty years, they've been outdoors enough.

Others get their fix from the spiritual but Ian's been harbouring a grudge against God since his mother stopped him going to Arsenal after his Barmitzvah. Forty-nine years ago. 'God will be watching' she said. Well, at least he got to see the game. The point is, life could be so much better so Ian's on the lookout. Come and join him on the hunt.

Ian Stone is a hugely experienced broadcaster, podcaster and writer and a brilliantly funny comedian. He performs at major comedy festivals and venues globally. His popular posts and reels on social media have quickly earned him a following of over 60k across BlueSky, Instagram, TikTok and Facebook, amassing millions of views.

Aside from stand-up comedy, Ian co-hosted the award-winning Rock 'N' Roll Football show on Absolute Radio for five years with Ian Wright. He currently presents a very popular (50k downloads per episode), twice-weekly Arsenal podcast, Handbrake Off, for The Athletic. A live version of the podcast recently sold out Leicester Square Theatre in London. Ian is also a regular contributor on Times Radio. His book To Be Someone was published in 2020 and has received nearly 500 four- and five-star reviews on Amazon.
