Milo Edwards

Milo Leonard Edwards (born February 1993 in Harlow, Essex) is an English stand-up comedian, podcaster and comedy writer. He attended Hills Road Sixth Form College in Cambridge and studied Classics at Peterhouse, University of Cambridge, where he was a member of the Footlights. In 2015 he moved to Russia, performing in Russian on the shows Open Microphone and StandUp for the TV channel TNT, before returning to base himself in London from 2018.

Edwards draws heavily on his experience abroad and on political and cultural themes. His 2019 Edinburgh Fringe show Pindos, about his years as a comedian in Russia, received strong reviews and was released as a YouTube special in 2023. His second Fringe hour, Voicemail (2022), won Best Poster at the festival and was nominated for Best Show at the Leicester Comedy Festival, later touring the UK and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival before its own YouTube release in 2024. Subsequent shows include Sentimental (2023) and How Revolting! Sorry to Offend (2024).

He co-hosts the podcasts Trashfuture, Masters of Our Domain and Glue Factory. As a writer he has contributed to television programmes including Late Night Mash, Mock the Week and The News Quiz, and to publications such as Private Eye and The New Statesman. Chortle has described him as "one of the UK's smartest, most vital stand-ups".
