Talk Is Jericho

Heroes, Heels & Wheels – The Unique Comedy of You’re My Hero


Listen Later

Sean Towgood is the creator, writer, co-Executive Producer and star of the hit CBC Gem comedy, You’re My Hero, which is based on his real-life experiences and adventures as a

20-something with cerebral palsy navigating life in a wheelchair. Sean and co-EP and showrunner, Kevin Wallis, talk about looking at Sean’s real-life moments that inspired the series through a comedic lens, why it’s important to tell this story from that viewpoint, and how they balance the more serious topics with levity. They explain what it took to get the series off the ground, how they adapt filming given Sean’s challenges with cerebral palsy, and their hopes for season 3 (Hey Netflix! We’re talking to you!) Plus, hear the whole story about how Chris Jericho

landed the role of “Chuck,” the “heel” deadbeat dad, in season 2!
