Tragedy + Time = Comedy | Alex Hooper - 876

This one’s a wild ride, fam. I’m catching up with comedian Alex Hooper, who’s back on Roll With The Punches for round two, three fleeting years after our first chat. Let me tell you, Alex has lived about 80 lifetimes since then, so buckle up. From battling stage 3 Hodgkin's Lymphoma and almost dying from Sepsis, to navigating infertility struggles, a miscarriage, and losing his dad - all within a few chaotic months... Alex’s story is raw, real, and (somehow) hilariously honest. He shares how he kept his mindset afloat through the darkest times, his transformative experience with ayahuasca in Peru, and the lessons he’s learned about facing life’s toughest punches with love, humor, and a hefty dose of perspective. We also get into his new podcast, Hopefully Kidding (a brilliantly named series on infertility and hope), his upcoming comedy special, and why he refuses to let life (or anyone else) dim his light. If you’re craving a reminder of how to find strength, connection, and even laughter amidst life’s messiest moments, this is your episode. Tune in, laugh, cry, and get ready to feel deeply inspired.   JOIN TRWT https://bit.ly/trwt2025  SPONSORED BY TESTART FAMILY LAWYERS Website: testartfamilylawyers.com.au ALEX HOOPER Website: hoopercomedy.com TIFFANEE COOK Linktree: linktr.ee/rollwiththepunches/ Website: tiffcook.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tiffaneecook/ Facebook: facebook.com/rollwiththepunchespodcast/ Instagram: instagram.com/rollwiththepunches_podcast/ Instagram: instagram.com/tiffaneeandco      See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
