Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee and host of the cult-hit podcast, They Like to Watch, Sara Barron has a new show that's fierce, savage and other adjectives from RuPaul's Drag Race. The clock is ticking, and the questions aren't cute anymore: is it your fault you're so angry? How old is too old to blame your mum? Why are you meaner to her, than to anyone else? And why is she so angry?! Oh. A regular on television, Sara's credits include Live at the Apollo (BBC Two), Would I Lie to You? (BBC One), and Richard Osman's House of Games (BBC Two). She is co-creator of the hit podcast FireCrotch and Normcore: They Like to Watch, which won a Silver Award at the 2023 British Podcasting Awards. Featured guests on the podcast include Daisy May Cooper, Russell T. Davies, Self-Esteem, Jesse Armstrong, and Charlie Brooker. Sara has appeared on The News Quiz, The Now Show, and Woman’s Hour (BBC Radio 4), and has published two essay collections with Random House, People Are Unappealing and The Harm in Asking. “Rendered gut-achingly speechless” ★★★★★ (Dave Esson, The Daily Express). “Beautifully crafted, no-nonsense stand-up… Highly recommended” ★★★★(Stephen Armstrong, The Sunday Times).

  • John Robertson Returns!!

    01:47:28|
    I have a kinship with this man that I don't have with many other people. He is my Tyler Durdan, he is who I wish I'd allowed myself to be more like if I had't been so worried about societies rules and so it was a joy to have him back on the show. I hope you get as much joy from listening as much as I had recording it. This is the full, unedited version including our extra chat about John's top five favourite albums that is usually reserved for our Patreons, just to give you a taste of what you're missing over on our Patreon
