Season 5 : Episode 9

It's the last episode of the current season and what a season it's been! Thank you for being here with us. We'd love to see you at one of our LIVE SHOWS in the Autumn. Ooh exciting! Details of our live gigs are in our latest newsletter - SIGN UP to get it straight in your inbox. You can book tickets for our performance at the Cheerful Earful Podcast Festival HERE!

Season 5, Episode 9 has one hell of a set list. The headliner is FELIX MACKENZIE-BARROW from the band, DIVORCE. You may well have heard Divorce championed on BBC 6 Music, or playing live on Jo Whiley's BBC Radio 2 show, or introduced by Clara Amfo & Lauren Laverne on BBC 2 at GLASTONBURY. Or seen them support Mumford & Sons; Everything Everything; Bombay Bicycle Club or The Vaccines. Basically, they're smashing it!

Formed in 2021, Divorce have quickly carved out a name for themselves with their sharp, emotionally intelligent songwriting and unmistakable sound. We talk to Felix about the joy of songwriting, how he started out as an actor, what life is really like on tour, and how he’s learned to face his fears and move through them. Also what it's like to perform in front of thousands of people. Felix is open, thoughtful and funny and it was a delight to chat to him IN PERSON! Yes, our first interview in the actual same room as our guest, and indeed, as each other.

With two new block-rocking comedy sketches, and a band-related chat that will have you wishing you still had a walkman and those little foam covered headphones, it's a supersonic send off for Season 5.

Name that soap theme tune...dum-tee-dum-tee-dum-tee-dum!

This week's guest LUCY SPEED plays talented farm manager, Stella Pryor in BBC Radio 4's THE ARCHERS - the world's longest running (and best - not biased at all here 😉) soap.

Lucy's career spans theatre, television, film and radio, and began when she was just a child. Lucy has played a multitude of roles across so many genres including DS Stevie Moss in The Bill and Bec Baker—Peter Kay’s wife—in his BBC sitcom Cradle to the Grave as well as countless other fantastic characters in a career that demonstrates her great versatility.

She brings a blend of warmth, wit, and emotional intelligence to every role she plays, and—as you’ll hear—she’s deeply thoughtful about the human experience behind the craft.

In this conversation, Lucy opens up about what it was like working with the legendary Julie Walters, how being an empath has shaped her both personally and professionally, and her hopes for leaving a legacy that changes the way we understand and respond to bullying in everyday life.

This ep also features two soap-related sketches for your entertainment, and a soapy chat which includes what might be the next iconic characters to prop up the bar in The Bull in Ambridge!
