074: Julia Wilson - Combative comedy

It's fair to say that Julia Wilson is not afraid of conflict - both verbal and physical. Prior to her 17 year career as a stand-up comedian, Julia was a truckie, a bouncer and bodyguard. More recently, she's also got into NFL, American Football, and in a big way too! She's quite possibly the toughest woman in comedy. In this School of Hard Knock Knocks podcast episode, Julia talks about her tough persona, being 'punchy-as-fuck' in her comedy routine, some rules of thumb as a female stand-up comedian, and not giving a shit about what other people think - which, according to Julia, is the reason for her success. And if you're thinking about trying stand-up comedy yourself, you might be pleased to know that we are beginning to announce course dates for Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney throughout 2019. That's right, the School of Hard Knock Knocks is quickly becoming Australia-wide. So whether you're a comedian of the future, or a bucket list ticker, you've got more opportunities to get up on stage. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
