Jay Saunders

How do you rediscover pleasure after 23 years of military service, medical discharge and complex PTSD? Obviously, you make things worse by becoming a stand-up comedian. Jay turns trauma into titters, pain into performance, self-loathing into laughter. With honesty and sharp humour, he explores mental health, recovery and the absurdity of healing while holding a microphone.

Joined by his partner (not his pet), Hawke, Jay delivers a funny, moving, hopeful journey proving life is worth living, whatever pain or disability you carry. Laughter is the medicine, come get your dose and support a wounded veteran's recovery
