Upload with Nina Das Gupta

Available for over a year

The hilarious Pottz has raced to over 100,000 followers with his retail-themed skits. He says a walk in the Malvern Hills gave him the confidence to start posting again. Tattoo artist Brad Potter started creating tattoo-themed skits during lockdown: The end of the pandemic and resumption of the day-job put a halt to his online work. Fast forward to a dog walk around his Worcestershire hometown and he found inspiration in a podcast, which gave him just the kick he needed. He's quickly picked up a six-figure following across various platforms, leading to being recognised in places such as his local fast food restaurant!
