Maybe it's because I listen to a lot of standup, but Jo Kay is hardly "unheralded". He's done a number of Netflix specials (the modern equivalent the old 1hr HBO special), has done some TV and VO and has a few film credits to his name, including fronting the file "Easter Sunday" last year. He was also romantically linked to Chelsea Handler for about a year.
