The Publisher Writes
From one of today’s hottest young comedians, a transgressive and hilarious deep dive into his favorite subject: relationships.
Daniel Sloss’s stand-up comedy engages, enrages, offends, unsettles, educates, comforts, and gets audiences roaring with laughter – all at the same time. In his ground-breaking specials, seen on Netflix and HBO, he has brilliantly tackled everything from male toxicity and friendship to love, romance, and marriage – and claims (with the data to back it up) that his on-stage laser-like dissection of relationships has single-handedly caused around 300 divorces and 120,000 breakups.
Now, in his first book, he picks up where his specials left off, and goes after every conceivable kind of relationship—with one’s country (Sloss’s is Scotland); with America; with lovers, ex-lovers, ex-lovers who you hate, ex-lovers who hate you; with parents; with best friends (male and female), not-best friends; with children; with siblings; and even with the global pandemic and our own mortality. In Everyone You Hate Is Going to Die, every human connection gets the brutally funny (and unfailingly incisive) Sloss treatment as he illuminates the ways in which all of our relationships are fragile and ridiculous and awful—but also valuable and meaningful and important.
About the Author
DANIEL SLOSS finds About the Author sections wanky and outdated. He would just like you to watch his fucking comedy specials. The publisher, on the other hand, would like you to know that Daniel Sloss is an internationally acclaimed, award-winning Scottish comedian and writer. He has created 11 solo shows, toured them in theatres, music venues and arenas across 50 countries to rave reviews, and his specials, including X on HBO as well as DARK and Jigsaw on Netflix, can be seen on a total of 190 countries.
Despite the relationship and marital mayhem he has caused, Daniel still believes in love.
Daniel is thirty and lives in Scotland, his “forever home”.

It`s always the people you least expect
Great day had by all, but mainly me, at the aul Waugh wedding. Scottish weddings remain undefeated. Indians are the only other culture that has any claim to the title.
God, I`ve aged.
Thanks to everyone who came to the new material night on Wednesday and the staff at Monkey Barrel. Mostly didn`t suck, so gonna coast on that high and forget to do any more work on the bits until the Fringe.
You can buy tickets to that Work In Progress now at my website.
My Fringe Work In Progress is now on sale on my website. Not doing the full run, but a fair bit of it.
This picture is from Hot Water Comedy club, which is not my fringe venue. It`s just the only recent photo I had of me doing comedy and I`m using it to promote said comedy.
There are lots of amazing shows on at the Fringe but it`s important to remember that a lot of comedians are bastards and my enemies, so it`s time to pick a side and I suggest it`s mine. The Fringe is dying and it`s Edinburgh Council and the Big 4s fault. Come see me while you can.

I`ve had 8 months off stage and have loved every God damn second of doing absolutely nothing. It was bliss. Every single one of you who said "oh you`ll miss it after a month. You`ll be pining for it" can suck my incredibly fertile dick. I could`ve stayed away for a decade.
But my wife and children are bored of me now. They no longer get to complain that I`m never home. I haven`t heard the word "part time" or "negligent father" since May. So it`s time to get back to it.
I`ll be working up new material around Scotland over the next few months. It`ll be shit and I`ll hate myself for allowing the cobwebs to grow. That`s where art grows - in the pits of self-loathing.
Anyway, genuinely lovely to return to comedy at the club and show that birthed me. I will always love The Stand and it`s staff.
