Ep. 567 - Jake Bhardwaj - comedy creator, writer, actor, producer and self-appointed professional comedy quizmaster

Jake Bhardwaj is a comedy creator, writer, actor and producer, as well as a self-appointed professional comedy quizmaster. After nearly a decade producing major entertainment shows including The Last Leg, Late Night Lycett, The Big Fat Quiz of the Year and Romesh Ranganathan’s Parents’ Evening, he has gained recognition online for his viral comedy sketches and as the creator of Not Another Quiz Night. Following a sell-out, five-star-reviewed run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the high-energy chaos of his live show Not Another Quiz Night returns to the Clapham Grand in April 2026 and will be back at the Edinburgh Fringe for the full month, at 11.20pm at the Assembly Underground. Jake has also recently become the sidekick to Joe Marler on the podcast Joe Marler Will See You Now, ad launched The Pub Quiz Podcast with Liam Shaw, where they, alongside a comedy guest, tackle real pub quizzes from across the UK.

Jake Bhardwaj is our guest in episode 567 of My Time Capsule and chats to Michael Fenton Stevens about the five things he'd like to put in a time capsule; four he’d like to preserve and one he’d like to bury and never have to think about again .
