EP64 | Laughs, Life and Lady Parts | Lauren Pattison | Local Heroes Podcast

This week Chris and Dan are joined by comedian Lauren Pattison, one of the sharpest stand-up voices to come out of the North East in the last decade.

From doing her first gigs at 18 in Newcastle to becoming an Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee and touring internationally, Lauren talks honestly about the strange reality of growing up through comedy, while everyone else was off travelling, she was doing gigs in Derby and trying to survive the Fringe. We get into where her humour came from, growing up in a family where making each other laugh was second nature, discovering Billy Connolly and Only Fools and Horses young, and realising later in life that maybe she was just the funny one all along.

Lauren tells us her industry stories from the Fringe, viral twitter wars, touring life, panel shows, Last One Laughing, Ross Noble, Sam Campbell and why comedians are often still laughing hardest at the dumbest things imaginable.

But like all good conversations, it also spirals beautifully off track.

We do a deep dive on controversial jacket potato methods, emotional support sausage rolls, dogs judging ex-boyfriend and why hot-and-cold puddings might be one of humanity’s greatest achievements.

Funny, chaotic, brutally honest, and very, very Northern.
