The Two Shot Podcast

Happy weekend. Hope you've had one of those good weekend brekkies. We missed our usual Thursday slot but we thought we'd stick this un out fresh off the press. It's a lovely and long overdue catchup with Lancashire legend Julie Hesmondhalgh. Julie's written a new book about acting and it's brilliant. If you want to have a nosy then check out the excerpt that Craig mentions in the Guardian here. Craig and Julie sat down for a chat about what they've been up to since the last TSP chat...

Podcast listeners, which we're sure a lot of you are, may have heard him on his new podcast Restless Natives with his mate Gordon Smart. Essential listening. Anyway, here you are.

What's up pals. It's TSP back in your lug holes. We've got a lovely episode for you this week. It's a chat with the brilliant stand-up comedian Nick Helm. Craig went to see Nick on the Brighton night of this What Have We Become tour last week and thought a TSP chat to Nick sounded like a good idea. Nick and Craig discuss audience participation and engagement, the comedy school year, meds, anxiety and depression, openness and loads, loads more. Frankly, it's pretty inspirational...
