Fern Brady with Katy Wix: Strong Female Character

Fern Brady with Katy Wix: Strong Female Character article image
Captioned

Comedian Fern Brady launches her game-changing memoir on sexism and neurodiversity, Strong Female Character, in conversation with Katy Wix.

'If you've ever been on a night out where you got blackout drunk and have laughed the next day as your friends tell you all the stupid stuff you said, that's what being autistic feels like for me: one long blackout night of drinking, except there's no socially sanctioned excuse for your gaffes and no one is laughing.'

In Strong Female Character, Fern Brady discusses everything from her Catholic upbringing, to homelessness, to her late diagnosis of autism and much more.

Brady's caustic wit, exceptional writing and electric stagecraft has made her one of the UK's hottest comedy stars, as seen on Live from the BBC, Live from the Comedy Store, The Russell Howard Hour and Live at the Apollo.
