McGann is one of the new wave of comics who seems to have made a breakthrough on instagram over lockdown. And he’s been gaining significant traction of late. One recent sketch of his, ‘A man has a bleak epiphany sending a voicenote to a radio show’ is utterly perfection in one minute and 25 seconds. What seems like a pointless novelty input quickly curdles, spiralling into reflection and regret. It truly is a masterclass in pointed black humour with its everyman relatability regarding the slow trap of life. Rest assured he brings the lolz to a live setting.
