Insane In The Men Brain

Trevor Lock was born in the past in England but now lives in the present all over the world. After being quite naughty at school he studied philosophy at University College London and then disappointed his parents by appearing on cult TV and radio shows in the UK including TMWRNJ, the BAFTA nominated British Comedy Award winning Star Stories and the Russell Brand podcast. He saw the light, abandoned mainstream mass media for the magic and connection of his live comedy events that are a cross between stand up comedy and group therapy. He also coaches communication skills to anyone who'll listen and runs the social experiment Reality Games where people from across the world are set experimental tasks and share their experiences with each other.
