Sobriety is my panacea.ā
Comedy legend John Thomson opens up about his ADHāDā diagnosis ā and how it finally helped him make sense of the patterns, pitfalls and self-sabotaging behaviours that shadowed both his career and personal life.
Exploring the powerful link between the trauma of being adopted at just six-weeks-old and the hard-won clarity heās found through 20 years of sobriety, self-awareness and stability, John is candid, compelling and characteristically quick-witted throughout.

šØ EXCLUSIVE! šØ
For the first time ever, comedy legend John Thomson opens up about his ADHāDā diagnosis ā and why our podcast was the place he finally felt safe enough to talk about it.
Nothing was off limits.
John spoke candidly about:
⢠being adopted
⢠the trauma of press intrusion
⢠hitting 20 years sober this year
⢠and the reality of living with ADHāDā.
He also unknowingly delivered the perfect ADHāDā drink trifecta! If you know, you know š
Raw, honest, hilarious and genuinely moving in equal measure. Absolute top man.

I found this invitation, by the brilliant Stanley Chow. It was a charity night to raise money for Imeldaās hospice.
The night was a huge success even the late Ricky Hatton did some stand up.
I will really miss Mani , every time we met we roared with laughter.
Always sending me the best comedy memes, a life saver in the pandemic.
Iāll miss him dearly, but Iāll miss our shared laughter even more.
Rest easy now . ā¤ļø
