    'A Nebulous Place' w/ Zara Gladman

    'A Nebulous Place' w/ Zara Gladman

    A conversation I had with musican, comedian and viral sensation Zara Gladman who has since sold out two nights at Oran Mor as part of teh Glasgow Comedy Festival. This was recorded in late August 2023 the day before we were both interviewed at the Edinburgh fringe, by Darren McGarvey at The Stand. Since then , Zara's profile has skyrocketed with one of her characters 'West End Maw' probably becoming one of the most famous skits but there is many, many other sides to Zara as we discuss everything from her Lady Gaga parody to her Tik Tok fame as well as discussing A.I, Barbie and meeting Gerard Butler in Partick. She will be doing the 'Zara Gladman & Friends' show again by popular demand on June 13th 2024 at Oran Mor.  Tickets here: https://tinyurl.com/yvu39fxj
    This is one of four classic interviews from 2023 that I never had the chance to upload so once these are released then Season 4 begins for 2024.

    'Pollok, Prison & Parliament' w/ Rosie Kane

    'Pollok, Prison & Parliament' w/ Rosie Kane

    I think my first memory of Rosie was her having my 'My oath is to the people' written on her hand as she made her first appearance in parliament. She also made headlines by going to Cornton Vale prison for refusing to pay a fine she received for her anti-nuclear protest outside parliament. Other controversies included protesting G8 on the floors of parliament, Going to Cuba and nearly getting a winch of Fidel Castro, Being a member of the Pollok Free State and the infamous Tommy Sheridan- News of the World scandal but these days she performs a dramatic and funny one woman show mixing comedy and storytelling called 'A Work in Protest' Ticket`s for You Call That Radio's GRATITUDE & ATTITUDE show here: https://www.skiddle.com/whats-on/Glas...
