Accidental Influencer

The year was 1996, and the screeching sound of a dial-up internet modem filled 16yr old Stage Door Johnny’s home.

Enter the extraordinary world of internet fame, from dodgy sponsorship deals and online beef to celebrity encounters and interviews with the international press, all while stuck in a flat in the West Midlands. Plus, discover just how desperately uncomfortable the term “influencer” makes Stage Door Johnny feel. Join him for a light-hearted exploration of the digital age's impact on identity and success, and of course some of the skits that you know and love. Don’t forget to like and subscribe
