In GBA 92 we get better acquainted with Ben Target. He talks about being enigmatic, stand up comedy, creativity, family history, observing from the outside and more. \n\nhttp://vimeo.com/49831059\n\nThe conversation takes place upstairs in a central London pub as a comedy gig (a London showing of Lou Sanders http://lousanders.com/ Edinburgh show) is set up around us and features cameos from Lou and others. Ben Target is a really brilliant "upcoming" comedian and so this is the perfect setting to capture a conversation with him.\n\nBen will be performing at the first Stand Up Tragedy of 2013 on Friday 18th January at the Hackney Attic. It will be a great show:\n\nhttp://www.standuptragedy.co.uk/\n\nhttp://www.standuptragedy.co.uk/show-1-18th-january-2013/\n\nhttp://www.picturehouses.co.uk/cinema/Hackney_Picturehouse/film/Stand_Up_Tragedy/\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/232685033529087/\n\n\nBen Plugs:\n\nhttp://plebtalks.com/\n\n2013 - Discover Ben Target: Upcoming gigs including one with Nick Sun on 25th Jan: http://www.chortle.co.uk/comics/b/33760/ben_target\n\nhttp://bentarget.com/\n\nhttp://twitter.com/BenTarget\n\n\n\nMentioned:\n\nJohn Kearns: http://www.thatjohnkearns.co.uk/\n\nStand Up Tragedy: http://www.standuptragedy.co.uk/\n\nLou Sanders: http://lousanders.com/\n\nWTF with Marc Maron: http://www.wtfpod.com/\n\nTangentially Speaking episode that talks about Flamenco: http://feralaudio.com/3-tao-ruspoli/\n\nStewart Lee: http://www.stewartlee.co.uk/\n\nDemeteri Martin: http://www.demetrimartin.com/\n\nNick Sun: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Sun\n\nKim Noble: http://www.mrkimnoble.com\n\nAndy Kaufman: http://andykaufman.jvlnet.com/core.htm\n\nGeorge Carlin: http://www.georgecarlin.com/\n\nMilton Jones: http://www.miltonjones.com/\n\nTony Law: http://www.mrtonylaw.com/\n\n\n\n\nYou can hear Getting Better Acquainted on Stitcher SmartRadio, Stitcher allows you to listen to your favourite shows directly from your iPhone, Android Phone, Kindle Fire and beyond.\n\nOn-demand and on the go!\n\nDon\u2019t have Stitcher?
