Taskmaster star Desiree Burch is the right voice for these very wrong times.
Desiree brings a childlike wonder and crone-like wit to the middle-aged experiences of losing sleep, relevance, knee cartilage, youth, and illusions in a comedy hour that relishes the rage and abandon that comes once you become invisible. Always authentic, curious, and gleefully irascible, Desiree Burch is the right voice for these very wrong times.
As seen on Live at the Apollo, Taskmaster, Travelman, The Last Leg, The Mash Report, and as the wisecracking narrator of Netflix’s Too Hot to Handle.
