Matt Hobs: 100% Badgers (Comedy)
## Matt Hobs: 100% Badgers (Comedy)
100% Badgers is a sell-out 2025 Edinburgh Fringe stand-up comedy show where Matt Hobs talks about how the worlds of humans and badgers collide.
The show takes us on Hobs’ journey from a passing interest in badgers, to an obsession that leads to him standing in a field looking at a caged, frightened badger caught up in the misinformation of the bovine TB debate.
We’ll learn about the European badger and its dachshund nemesis, the presidential American badger, the world-famous internet sensation that is the honey badger and many more.
_“His storytelling is gripping, his facts are fascinating, and his punchlines are perfectly timed.” ★★★★.5, Edinburgh Reviews._
