Mackay (also known as Wee Mackay) is a Scottish Actor, Comedian and Tik Tok Sensation with over 100,000 followers.

He jumped on the podcast to share how he pivoted his acting career online during lockdown which projected delayed gratification and further success. Some of his sketch show work has been commissioned by the BBC and he has been touring the country with his birth child born out of the Edinburgh Fringe "Weegies Think Ae That".

Gregor opens up and shares his thoughts on why comedy is subjective and why you should not adapt your narrative to crowd please.

Gregor shares:

His route to entry through an acting degree and why this no longer the hallmark route

How to adapt to online criticism and use it for content

How to twist real life situations into hyperbolic caffeinated jokes and sketches.

How to break into the industry and how to fundamentally just start by creating content from your bedroom
