When Allan Sidley approaches the stage to perform comedy, he can feel the adrenaline rush and energy as he connects with his audience.

Overcoming stage fright and writer’s block, Sidley, an expert punster, and comedian is a true inspiration to all of us who have faced difficulties in our life journeys.

Allan Sidley, whose father died when he was nine months old, did not have many classic childhood experiences that most people treasure. But he grew up with a supportive loving single mom, a confident demeanor, and a strong belief that we can not only survive, but thrive. He has proven that confidence, and resilience, can see us through our most difficult times and beyond. Allan joins Mark Alyn for a look at humor during and after the pandemic.
