Today’s episode features the exceptionally creative goddess that is comedy writer-performer ROSALIE MINNITT. If you go to her website and scroll to the bottom of the homepage you will laugh at just how Crushed-Coded it is.
She’s doing Edinburgh with her show Clementine 2 and without having seen it I’m already OBSESSED. Appropriately enough. She’s at The Pleasance at 15:35 from the 5th-30th August – tickets here:
