Thank you WTTG and Tony.

“An Afternoon with Comedian Brett Leake ’82.”Recorded February 10, 2008 and posted May, 2008 with permission. The entire interview can be found at YouTube.
I’m an “entertainment with a message” speaker: the entertainment is stand-up comedy squeaky clean ‘above the belt’ and ‘between the ears’ the message, pulled from my experience living with muscular dystrophy and presented in short light anecdotes, is life is lived fullest not in spite of the problems but because of them.
I love my work, enjoy being around others who love theirs, and sharing with those who don’t a few ways they can, too. I weave into the entertainment recent findings in emotional intelligence research; why humor is essential in our lives, how one can develop a humor lens, and the notion that if we attend to a few core needs we and our colleagues can communicate more effectively, feel less of a divide between work and home, and find what suffices.
Thanks to Eric Pesola of The William and Mary Alumni Association for his great work shooting, editing and creating the video. Capable, dedicated, and funny, he’s a credit to the campus. I enjoyed my visit with him very much.
