Robin Tran has been performing standup comedy for the past 11 years, but it is only in the last eight that she has been performing under the name Robin. Before her transition in 2015, she presented as male and used the name Robert.

During the pandemic, she gained a sizeable and loyal following via TikTok, and in 2021 she was featured as one of the “New Faces” of the year by the influential Just for Laughs festival. In the last couple of years, she’s enjoyed some very prominent appearances on various TV and streaming platforms, including “Comedy Central Roast” and Comedy Central Stand-Up Featuring.” Last year she also appeared on the Netflix show “That’s My Time With David Letterman.”

In this episode, Robin describes how she’s managed to cultivate and grow her career despite an industry that at first didn’t know what to do with her and explains why, when all is said and done, she may always remain “a pro-wrestling bad guy. “
