Look! It’s Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast about unrequited love.
Today’s episode features friend of the show, incredible writer and broadcaster Julia Raeside.
Julia has come back to the podcast to talk about her brilliant new novel Don’t Make Me Laugh (working title Sausage Factory). We discuss the science and horrors of fancying funny people, as we’re both suckers for it. They’re not all terrible. Is our conclusion. But also: BE CAREFUL.
Thanks for downloading and supporting the podcast. It remains a sexy joy.

Make sure you go back and listen to all the old episodes – they are all my babies (bit much?) and I’m really super proud of how funny and lovely they all are. Don’t make me pick.
