With the Edinburgh Fringe up and running (for many it's been going since January or earlier with Work In Progress shows), I heard from a number of performers about their preparations and also tips for making the most of the Fringe experience.

If you're performing at the Fringe and you'd be interested in being on the podcast during August get in touch.

Girlhood

"You can't interview a ghost on this show. But you can have a woman who has swallowed her whole forearm"

I spoke to Lorna Rose Treen and Jonathan Oldfield about a range of subjects including their Radio 4 show Time of The Week which you can currently catch up with on BBC Sounds.

We also chat about their experiences with character comedy, drama and improvisation as well as discussing their experiences at the Edinburgh Fringe and Lorna’s experiences of winning Dave’s ‘Best Joke of the Fringe’ last year and the ensuing reaction to that news where it was described in the Sun as the Death of Comedy.

Rosie is a musician who's played Glastonbury, a Comedian who has taken multiple shows to the Edinburgh Fringe, as well as a British Podcast Award nominated podcaster for her Podcast 'The Breakup Monologues' as well as the author of 'Is Monogamy Dead?' and 'The Breakup Monologues'.

We discuss her experiences in these areas, the high and low points of each (both financial and emotional) and her future plans as a Fiction writer.

This episode is with Ian Adkins and Laura Rouxel of 800lb Gorilla a comedy media company who produce, distribute, and market stand-up comedy video specials and audio albums around the world.

We talk in particular about the work of 800lb Gorilla in the UK, filming and promoting specials for comedians such as Stuart Goldsmith, Fern Brady, Christopher Macarthur-Boyd, Ivo Graham and many more.

We talk about their relationship with artists, promoting UK acts in America and Australia, the importance of social media and finding the right clip or chunk of a show for the right platform.
