Bethany Black makes a powerfully funny connection with her fanbase, and has been wielding it to great effect over the course of her heavily-shielded pandemic experience.We explore the effect on her work of her concurrent diagnoses with autism, ADHD and agoraphobia, and discuss how her fanbase consists of people just like her, rather than the cool kids she was trying to impress.We also cover painting her herself into a corner with stand-up; how some promoters book to their own taste without realising; not being famous enough for The Chase; and what she’s already anticipating tolerating in her sixties…No extras for this episode but you can still hit www.comedianscomedian.com/insiders for all the extras from every episode that has them, including the exclusive Insiders Q&A with James Acaster!Follow Bethany Black:Follow @beffernieblackFollow her and subscribe to: http://twitch.tv/beffernieblackBuy her stand-up special: http://gofasterstripe.com/unwinnable Tip her through http://ko-fi.com/bethanyblackEverything Stu's up to:Stu’s “Virtual Office Party” is now available as the perfect solution to remote-working office parties, sales conferences, motivational and wellbeing events.“It was an absolutely hysterical and wonderful evening, for both those partaking and everyone watching online!”- Maria Kuzak (Fundraising Manager at CALM)The games and interactive element were hilarious and extremely well executed! 10/10 from us, you created a real buzz in our business, thank you." - Ben Gott, (SVP at Merkle)For more info on how this unique concept can bring your staff together while working apart, go to www.virtualofficeparty.co.ukStu also offers remote talks to business on what the distilled wisdom of over 350 comics can teach you about resilience, especially in times of pandemic.“The most inspiring talk I’ve had in years!” (LEGO staff member)Find out more at www.comedyinsights.comThis podcast is @ComComPod on twitter and instagramwww.comedianscomedian.comSee Stuart live on tour - www.stuartgoldsmith.com/comedy Hosted on Acast.
