In this interesting interview, Izzard talks about being a transvestite, an atheist, and a humanist. (Thanks to Kylie Sturgess at Token Skeptic for the link.)
Izzard is one of my favorite comedians. I love his stream-of-consciousness style and the seemingly random jumps he makes from one topic to another (but which are of course carefully practiced) and his dialogues with himself. He is also a big fan of science.
Here is a clip that shows some of those qualities.
