SIM Ep 450 Chops 188: Sian Harries is Frothing

We can all agree there has been too much news this year, right? So, our final Chops of 2020 is all about froth, as Hannah chats to screenwriter Sian Harries, co-host (with her husband Rhod Gilbert) of the podcast, The Froth. They talk about the joys of figuratively chatting shit, why this so often turns into literally chatting shit, why Four Seasons Total Landscaping is 2020's funniest joke, how Wales has fared during the pandemic and who - WHO? - is missing their signed photo of Judi Dench. Tuck in! This podcast was recorded in mid-November Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
