025: Ben McCarthy – What do you want to do when you grow up?

Not many teenagers know what they want to be in life. And if they
do, they most certainly don't declare to the world they want to
be a stand-up comedian. But to the horror of his high school
careers counsellor, that's exactly what Ben McCarthy did. With a
little bit of serendipity, and a single focus to get up on stage,
Ben, now aged 21, has already performed at the Melbourne
International Comedy Festival (MICF) and completed a comedy tour
of Australia.


In this School of Hard Knock Knocks podcast episode you'll learn
why Ben embraces bombing on stage, how he writes new material,
and how random chances turned into an Australia wide tour. His
story, while very fresh, is inspirational.
