Jack Traynor:
Ranked number 4 in the world in the Roast Battle League, Jack Traynor is one of the sharpest new voices in comedy. Named Roast Battle MVP in 2024 and runner-up at Hot Water Comedy Club’s New Comedian of the Year, Jack’s blend of surreal observations and razor-sharp put-downs make him a real crowd-pleaser.
Stephen Buchanan:
