Hello!

Today I speak to Fergus Neal. Fergus is a comedian, writer & the co-host of his podcast On it Off It with Louis Phillip, and he’s just about to tour his latest show Boy, across Australia. 

In this conversation, Fergus talks about his creative rituals, and how he’s managed anxiety and panic attacks since his early twenties. He reflects on his journey into comedy, how he feels about commenting on topical political issues online, about the concept behind Boy, and why he’s chosen to highlight modern masculinity, and the manosphere through comedy.
