Comedian Annie Lowe talks about how comedy saved her life, transitioning, and her NEW special out now! Tom asks what's it like to transition, come out, and be the best version of yourself all while pursuing a career in comedy. Annie talks about starting a dialogue with people who you might not usually speak to and how it's always better when we find what we have in common instead of what sets us apart. #transgender #trans #comedy #comedian #podcast #lgbtq
