Show Notes
Our guest for this episode is the brilliant Sheyi Martins-Allen. You might know her for her political rants on Instagram, her hilarious agony aunting, or her strong views on adapting Pride and Prejudice for the small screen.
She is also a fantastic singer - she tells us how her recent show went, and about her plans for the future. We find out how she became friendly with Dolly Alderton, how she deals with Trump supporters in her DMs, and why her Dad is struggling with the behaviour of Brooklyn Beckham.
Plus: we discuss the use of humour to talk about politics, and teach Sheyi a new and unpleasant word. We finish with some Confessions involving a series of unfortunate incidents at the Stratford Upon Avon Literary festival, and school run politics.
Do go and check out Sheyi's Instagram account, we love it - @sheyimartinsallen
