590 - ADAM PEARSON - Breaking The Barriers Of Facial Disfigurement, Starring Alongside Scarlet Johansson In Hollywood, & Working On ‘The Undateables’!

This week’s Happy Hour guest is the effortlessly cool Adam Pearson. An actor, presenter, and disability rights campaigner, there’s really not much Adam ISN’T bloody brilliant at. Fresh from the bright lights of Hollywood and into the ironically brighter lights of the ridiculously yellow Happy Hour studio, Adam comes equipped with his sharp wit, seamless charisma and even a present for Jaack and Stevie! Are we just being nice about Adam because he is one of the only Happy Hour guests to come baring gifts? Honestly no. Adam is one of the loveliest blokes to ever grace our studio, and this episode is destined to fit right onto the shelf labelled “instant Happy Hour classics”. Being born with neurofibromatosis - a condition that causes tumours to grow all over his body - life was inevitably hard for a young Adam, as he fought with bullies in the vicious battlefield of the school classroom. We ask Adam questions you’re too afraid to ask someone with a facial disfigurement, and he shares how he deals with having a twin brother who does not suffer with the same symptoms, and tells us how parents should react when their curious children ask questions about someone with a visible difference. Stereotypes, stigma and preconceptions have all had to roll over and concede a big fat L to Adam who seems to just smash everything he turns his hand to. From working in television on much loved British shows such as ‘The Undateables’ and ‘Beauty And The Beast’, to breaking into Hollywood with jaw dropping performances in films like ‘Under The Skin’ and ‘A Different Man’. If one thing is clear in this episode… it’s that Adam was born simply to be a star. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
