Bringing it home strong with Dr Catherine Franssen our resident neuroscientist in Part 3 of our discussion understanding the brain in relation to stand up comedy. Today we are exploring the different neurodiversity and disorders that so many of our previous guests have been diagnosed with, from ADHD to bipolar disorder to dyslexia. Our goal was to explain and decode these conditions and what ended up happening – beautifully – was we celebrated the ways they help stand up comedians be who they are and be great at making people laugh and how more interesting our lives are because of all these differences. I hope this episode inspires you to embrace the things your brain does that make you different and unique – no matter what those kids or that teacher once said – sorry they were wrong!
