Sara Barron (Part One)

This week Emily and Ray take a North London stroll with the brilliant comedian Sara Barron, joined by her exuberant Bedlington Whippet puppy, Wednesday.

Sara chats to Emily about her fascinating life, from a teenage appearance on The Jerry Springer Show, to dating a clown, to her years working as a waitress and the many strange encounters that came with it. They also talk about how she found her way into stand-up, inspired in part by meeting her husband, broadcaster Geoff Lloyd, with whom she now co-hosts the joyful TV podcast They Like to Watch.

Sara also shares more about her latest project, the podcast MotherSl_ts with comedian Jessie Cave, which you can watch on YouTube and see live at the Top Secret Comedy Club. Tickets are available at https://thetopsecretcomedyclub.co.uk.

It’s a funny, (slightly) chaotic and heartwarming walk, with Wednesday bringing Ibiza-hen-do-level puppy energy and Ray doing his best to keep up. Emily and Ray absolutely loved their time with Sara, and it’s easy to see why she’s one of the most engaging voices in comedy today.
