We all know that MS is a misunderstood disease that shows up differently for each of us. Each week an episode will be released that'll share the highs and lows of this unpredictable disease. My hope is that these episodes will shed some light for those who are newly diagnosed and those of us who have been living with it for years. Each week we will chat with someone who has been effected by Multiple Sclerosis, whether that be someone who lives with it, a family member, spouse, nurse or friend.

Paddy Macrae: Why Irreverent Put Authentic Disability Representation on Screen
<p>In this episode of MS Understood, I chat with Paddy Macrae, writer and creator of the Netflix series Irreverent. We dive into why he made the powerful choice to include a character living with multiple sclerosis in the show — and how her story challenges the usual way disability is portrayed on screen.</p><p>Paddy shares his thoughts on the importance of diverse casting, what it means to represent a “true Australia,” and how thoughtful storytelling can shift perceptions in all the best ways.</p><p>Whether you live with MS, work in media, or just love great TV that reflects real life, this episode is one you won’t want to miss.</p><p>And if you haven’t already watched Irreverent, add it to your list — it’s full of heart, humour, and genuine representation.</p>
