Josh Sundquist has been telling his one legged story his whole life - from comedy shows to internet clips Josh finally this year released his very own TV show 'Best Foot Forward' (Now on Apple TV+). Josh talks about identity in the media industry, the influence of disabled actors and the importance of conveying messages through representation instead of a established able bodied star.
