On today's episode I have special guest Luke Poulton who some of you may know as @veganluke across social media. Luke is (as his username suggests) vegan, he is 30 years old and is an Autistic stand-up comedian who was awarded Essex Comedian of the Year in 2019. At the time of recording Luke has over 60,000 followers on TikTok which is insane and I'm going to be asking him more about his brilliant videos in this episode!
We chat about:
Luke's Autism diagnosis and support within education
His university experience, what he studied and accommodations for autistic people at university
What life was like after uni, and his experiences working as a postman, in a supermarket and at a law firm
How Luke got into comedy and the stand-up scene
Luke's TikTok page - when and why he started it and managing with it's amazing growth!
Luke's (fascinating) special interests
How he copes with daily life and through the pandemic
In this episode we mentioned:
The tiktok video with the handshake
explore.org for the live animal cameras!
