Merrill Merrill On the Wall with special guest Merill Davis

Actor, comedian, writer, Merrill Davis (Merill Means Well, Gay Haircut) joins the family for a deep and laughter-filled conversation about growing up with ADHD, anxiety, and how trauma shapes comedy. We also get Merrill's take on her favorite comedians, some anxious fictional characters, and recommendations for what we should be watching. Be sure to check out Merrill at the Lyric Hyperion this Saturday May 28 where she'll be hosting Witch Hunt, as well as throughout August at the Edinburgh Fringe festival performing her one-woman show, Merrill Means Well.  Links:  IG: https://www.instagram.com/merrillmerrillonthewall/?hl=en  Twitter: https://twitter.com/merrilldavis  Tickets for Witch Hunt, May 28 at the Lyric Hyperion: https://www.lyrichyperion.com/events/witch-hunt-1  Edinburgh Fringe: https://www.edfringe.com/  Sign up for the Friday Night Movie Newsletter for giveaways, curated episode playlists from the hosts and guests (including our mom), and at MOST one email per month (and probably fewer).  Closed captions for this episode are available via the player on the official Friday Night Movie homepage, the Podbean app and website, and YouTube.  The Friday Night Movie Family supports the following organizations: HIAS, NAACP Legal Defense Fund | Equal Justice Initiative | Asian American Journalists Association.
