Before landing on “Everything Must Go” as the title of her first stand-up special, Hannah Einbinder considered a moniker more closely connected to her atypical outlook: “The Neurodivergent Hour.”
Diagnosed with ADHD as a child, the 28-year-old “Hacks” star has long wielded comedy as a tool for combating what, until recently, she would describe as “intense self-loathing.” While Einbinder has happily progressed in the self-esteem department, her special — filmed last month at El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles ahead of a mid-June release on Max — was forged over many years of stepping onstage to escape her swirling doubts and insecurities.
