Brian Simpson (Live @ SXSW)

The Comedian's Comedian Podcast

Brian Simpson is a stand-up comic hailing from Austin, TX, where this was in fact recorded as part of SXSW!

With a background as a foster child and Marine Corps veteran, Brian brings a rare blend of life experiences to his comedy, offering a refreshingly unique perspective. He's earned a spot on Variety's Top Comics to Watch in 2023 and you might recognise Brian from Comedy Central's Lights Out with David Spade, or his debut Netflix special, Brian Simpson: Live from the Mothership!

We discuss how ADHD affects Brian’s comedy, reflecting on mentor advice and learning to embrace discomfort along with the therapeutic value and healing potential of comedy.

Please note: this episode deals with the topic of suicide.
