When George Lewis became a dad, older comedians told him not to mention it onstage. Instead, he leaned all the way in — and built a thriving career out of the chaos of parenting. Now 37, the British comic has gone viral for his “Two Toddlers Chatting” sketches, where kids talk like bewildered adults and question their parents’ strange behavior. The low-budget clips, filmed in his kitchen between school runs, tap into the hilarious absurdity of modern parenthood.
With millions of views and sold-out shows, Lewis has struck a chord with fellow parents — especially mums — who find comfort in knowing they’re not alone. He’s part of a growing wave of millennial comedians making relatable, real-life family content the new mainstream. The more mundane the moment, the better the joke, Lewis says, and his life with three young kids is full of material. As his daughter scribbles marker like lipstick or his toddler demands snacks mid-recording, it’s all potential gold. And he’s got the Notes app to prove it.
