Carmen Mackey sits down with Funny Women matron Jo Brand to chat about the comedy industry and how it’s changed throughout the years. With the Funny Women Awards 2022 open for registration, they go into the role of competitions in a career in comedy. Mental health is at the forefront of everyone’s minds after the long pandemic, and it’s no surprise the conversation also dips into it. All of it sprinkled with funny anecdotes from the iconic Jo Brand.
