Rosie Jones (Comedian with Cerebral Palsy)| #122

“Hello I'm Rosie, I'm disabled, I'm here, I'm proud of it listen to us make us in the conversation because we are not ever going to go away!”.On this episode of ListenABLE, Angus O'Loughlin is joined by the unstoppable Rosie Jones — comedian, writer, actor, and all-round legend. With her razor-sharp wit and deliciously dark humour, Rosie doesn’t just take up space in the comedy world — she owns it. She spills on everything from growing up with cerebral palsy to tackling the stand-up circuit with jokes that hit harder than a British winter. Along the way, we get into her comedy and writing credits (Sex Education, thank you very much), her kids’ books that actually get it right when it comes to disability (The Amazing ED Eckhart series), and why being trolled online won’t stop her from saying exactly what she thinks. Rosie’s not here to be your inspiration — she’s here to make you laugh, and maybe rethink a few things. This episode is a mix of sharp observations, real talk about ableism, and plenty of “did she just say that?” moments. It’s bold, smart, and totally Rosie. Want to support Rosie?

The right bank of Bordeaux is home to smaller, artisan producers. Saint-Émilion boasts over 2,000 years of continuous winemaking history.
