In his intimate and highly anticipated debut hour, Rich Hardisty (Channel 4, Netflix, BBC) takes us on a journey through the highs and lows of his unusual life. Expect anecdotes and observations about meltdowns, missing dads and mania, all from his warm, inquisitive, childlike perspective. Rich tries to convey what mental illness looks and feels like, celebrating the beauty and silliness of it all. He shows us the interesting, hilarious and sometimes shocking things his brain is capable of doing (whether he wants it to or not). Raw, open and honest but most importantly... funny!

"It's kind of a rite of passage. It's also an incredible opportunity to be seen by an international crowd. It's like a comedy tradeshow, I guess. Which makes it sound corporate? But I guess it is. If you do a good show up there...it can change your life!"

In a nutshell, it's about my SILLY life and my SILLY brain and why I am the way I am, and the things I've gone through and what I've learned from those experiences that have helped me that I think might be of some value.
