Russell Kane is someone I have SO much respect for! I’m so grateful for his honesty in this conversation, from discussing sexual literacy to dealing with the loss of his dad.
After winning his first comedy award in 2004, his career grew very quickly. He was forced to learn the ropes in the public eye and is open about his regrets. We also spoke about his Nan, who encouraged him to go to university and how she walked in on him… enjoying some alone time 😬
This was such a fascinating conversation, especially hearing Russell’s willingness to openly reflect on his own decisions and mistakes. I loved chatting to Russell and I hope you enjoy this episode!
