How does our next guest get 10 MILLION views every year with one video?

Josh Sundquist has been telling his one legged story his whole life - from comedy shows to internet clips Josh finally this year released his very own TV show 'Best Foot Forward' (Now on Apple TV+). Josh talks about identity in the media industry, the influence of disabled actors and the importance of conveying messages through representation instead of a established able bodied star.

Honest truths come out about the pressure of clicks and likes online, losing the joy in playing dress ups and what you do when you’ve achieved your dream job. Dylan and Angus navigate Josh’s psyche as they discuss:

• Going viral every year for a joke with misguided intentions.

• How being a pinnacle of internet entertainment can affect your mental health

• The creative hijinks from Josh’s life that inspired his tv show

• And the truth about disability acceptance within the media industry
