This week the boays are joined by comedian, best-selling author and star of Taskmaster Fern Brady.  Fern discusses Scottish identity, Catholicism, and how her parents reacted to the revelations in her tell-all autobiography Strong Female Character.   She also reveals what going to Edinburgh Uni taught her about classism, the less-than-glamourous realities of working as a stripper, and how her autism diagnosis has reframed the perspective on her upbringing.  Plus, there's chat of stand-up, Taskmaster, and Steve learns the story of "The Emperor's New Clothes".A video version of this podcast is available on YouTube, where you can subscribe for all future episodes: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxeugCQL5zyVhd7pCEAi9GAFern's book Strong Female Character is out now: https://linktr.ee/strongfemalecharacter We're now on Patreon!  Sign up for exclusive access for as little as £3 per month:  https://www.patreon.com/somelaughTickets for all three of the boays' Edinburgh Fringe shows in August are ON SALE NOW!Stuart: https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/stuart-mcpherson-love-that-for-meMarc: https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/marc-jennings-away-from-hereSteve: https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/stephen-buchanan-charicatureYou can follow Some Laugh on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok - and please remember to leave a 5 star review!Support the show
