Today I had a chat with award winning comedian & scientist Robyn Perkins who uses science to explain her shortcomings. We chatted about Robyn's story so far, how she uses science in comedy & her experience of climbing Kilimanjaro.Robyn Perkins effortlessly combines scientific research with personal stories from her ridiculous life (yes, she really did lose half of her pants on her first night on Kilimanjaro). And when life doesn't go to plan, Robyn uses her scientific background to explain why, whether it be a question of love and morality, decision-making or, now, competition and confidence, “blending science, comedy and a little hint of philosophy into an excellent show” (Scots Reviewer).Honing her comic skills on the British, US and now Australian comedy scene, the “exceptionally charismatic” (Voice Magazine) Robyn has tackled some of life's biggest and most emotionally charged topics on stage, and brought them right back to the audience with personal, relatable and hilarious real-life anecdotes. This has brought her international success, winning Sydney Fringe's Comedy Award in 2019 and was a weekly winner of the comedy award at Perth FRINGE WORLD in 2020.

Robyn Perkins is a jack of all trades at her previous lives from a landscape designer to a marine biologist to a comedian. We tried to predict what is going to happen in this unfortunate and crazy time. Robyn has a lot of jokes about science, how her previous life as a scientist influence her writing style while I ranted against “nerd” jokes in the mainstream TV show. She shared a drinking game, her trip to Komodo island and the usage of bidet. I think I may have disgust her with fun facts how flies and maggots is good for the medical world.

Every week comedian Yael Gavish talks with a comedian that has at some point been asked “Where Are You REALLY From?” Whether it's due to an accent, skin color, the outfit they are wearing or various other factors. Each conversation explores personal stories about travels, family life, cultural experiences and funny stories that have happened along the way. This week I've met Robyn Perkins who was born in New Hampshire but live now in London. We talked about #Boston, about comedy in the world and why is London so much better than New England.

Robyn Perkins is an American comic based in London who does one-woman stand up shows about relationships and dating which use neuroscience to explain the things we do in the world of romance. Robyn also went to Harvard University (like the actual Harvard, in America and everything), studying landscape architecture, and worked in the field for years before becoming a comedian. She rubbed shoulders with some of the biggest names in that world, none of whom I am even slightly aware of, and worked on some huge projects including the Olympic Village for the Rio di Janeiro Olympic Games in 2016. I've always wondered what it'd be like to go to the most prestigious university in the world, so we had a chat about it. Also at the end of this episode I put in a bonus recording of a roast battle with my friend Milo Edwards from a few days ago. Settle in, this is a long one.
