Welcome to Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast about unrequited love.
This SPECIAL THIRD ANNIVERSARY episode features my inimitable sisters, Carol Cabourn-Smith and Beth Sines (nee Cabourn-Smith).
Not to be too sentimental but the truth is they are incredibly important to me and I think this episode illustrates our closeness. It’s funny talking to people I know so well, neither of whom do any performing but are naturally honest and hugely entertaining. I hope it all makes sense! It’s a slice of life (only without the booze that usually occurs in family get-togethers. Probably for the best).
Thanks for downloading and supporting. It’s a scary time at the moment and having a creative and loving community is amazingly comforting. I hope it is for you. It’s all about feeling less alone in our madness.
