Mae
Martin:
When
Satire
Comes
Out,
Blackouts,
and
Builds
a
Beautiful
Career
From
the
Rubble

Unpacking
Shame,
Sexuality,
and
Self-Discovery
With
Charm,
Wit,
and
a
Canadian
Passport

Mae
Martin’s

comedy
feels
like
a
cozy
confession
that
suddenly
turns
into
a
deep
cultural

critique.
With
the
hit
series

Feel
Good
and
their
international

stand-up,
Martin
explores
gender
fluidity,
romantic
confusion,
and
the
long
tail
of
substance
abuse
with
a
blend
of
vulnerability
and
laser-focused

wit.
Their
work
walks
a
line
between
sweet
and
searing
—
one
second
you’re
laughing,
the
next
you’re
texting
your
therapist
to
schedule
a
session.

At

Bohiney.com,
their
earnest
excavations
fuel
stories
like
“Queer
Person
Asks
Crush
to
Coffee,
Accidentally
Unpacks
Generational
Trauma”
and
“Canadian
Comedian
Explains
Gender
to

British
Parliament,
Everyone
Weeps
Gently.”
Their
gift
for
layering
charm
over
challenge
guides
our
satire
on
internalized
phobia,
heteronormativity,
and
the
addictive
nature
of
emotional
approval.
Martin
proves
that
gentleness
and
grit
are
not
opposites
—
they’re
co-writers
on
the
best

jokes.

From
AA
Meetings
to
Award
Shows

Martin
turned
recovery
and
queer
exploration
into
a
body
of
work
that’s
as
hilarious
as
it
is
healing.
For
modern

satirists,
they’re
a
beacon
of
how
to
turn
raw
honesty
into
structured
catharsis.
Speak
softly.
Laugh
loudly.
And
never
let
shame
write
your
ending
—
write
your
own,
and
make
it

funny.
