Marc Isaac on gender not having to be front and centre

In this episode, I sit with Comedian Marc Isaac (they/them).

 

Content Warning: Marc also works in the medical field and speaks on the important and hard work of doing research into mental health care and suicide rates among transgender people.

 

We discuss The Loch Ness Monster’s shy side, Marc’s solo festival show The Kilted Queer, making comedy for the people we want it to be for, Marc’s identity throughout school feeling safe and preferring to live in a chosen fantasy world, the importance of representation and diversity in the medical field and how the story isn’t over yet!
