Mandy has used her platform for over 3 decades to not just to make jokes, but also to champion the big issues. Asked why someone as accomplished and commanding as Nolan has never got the national cut through she deserves. Nolan blames herself ‘I dropped out and moved to Byron Bay when I was 23. Before it was cool. Then I had 5 kids. Three husbands. Then I got old. As a woman, that's not great for business.’

She has taught over 2000 people stand up comedy, including Emmy winning Hannah Gadsby, her Women Like Us touring buddy and former RAW finalist Ellen Briggs and this year’s RAW winner Alexandra Hudson. During the Covid lockdown years Mandy helped establish the Byron Bay Comedy Festival, now in its 4th year, actively mentoring festival directors and assisting with programming.
