Gilded BalloonProfessional company

60 minutesOrchard
Neurotic comics Hal Cruttenden and Ronni Ancona have launched a podcast ten years too late, where they seek advice from celebrity friends about how to deal with stress. They do this while therapeutically completing a jigsaw (clearly a brilliant idea for an audio format) while riling their Gen Z producer who hates them, as well as their sponsors suing them for brand misuse. Past guests include Jo Brand, Omid Djalili, and Sally Phillips - now, at the Fringe, this hilarious chaos is going live for two shows only. Unpredictable, unhinged and not to be missed.
