For most people, the idea of performing standup in front of hundreds of people would be a nightmare, especially if they struggle with anxiety. But for Gianmarco, the stage has become a sanctuary where he can openly express and even find humor in his anxious thoughts and feelings.
"One thing I think is nice about comedy is like, I can use that anxiety and live on that anxiety on stage and it can be funny. I can make the anxiety funny and I don't have to hide it,"(41:43)
Throughout the episode, Gianmarco opens up about his sometimes dysfunctional family and how they've inspired his comedic material. He also discusses his experiences with therapy and antidepressants, the pressures of living up to traditional expectations of masculinity, and the strategies he uses to manage his anxiety today.
Tune in to this insightful and humorous episode to learn more about Gianmarco's unique perspective on mental health, comedy, and the power of embracing one's authentic self on stage.
