stand-up is horses for courses but why is it do you think that people that stand up seems to be the thing. I saw a very brilliant very established comic become unstuck on stage which is my new favorite way to say dial in their ass. If you don't do well it's shame game over and it's like being a tightrope walker that falls off. Even when you have 20 years experience there's still a risk of dying right.
This week on the Penguin Podcast, we bring you a special episode: Shaparak Khorsandi in conversation with Isy Suttie live from Lattitude Festival.
Shaparak joined us to discuss her latest book, Scatter Brain: How I finally got off the ADHD rollercoaster and became the owner of a very tidy sock drawer.
The two also discuss the subtle distinctions between shame and embarrassment, memories of climbing a pear tree, the life-changing power of an ADHD diagnosis, and how being on I’m A Celebrity gave her a spiritual experience.
