Episode 58: Volume for Pathos with Jay Lafferty

This week the boays are joined by comedian Jay Lafferty.  Jay reveals how her drama school background helped her in the world of stand-up, recalls what it was like being a female stand-up on the Scottish circuit in the early-2000s, and discusses why she's taken up pole dancing as part of her show at this year's Edinburgh Festival.  Plus, they discuss some of the eccentric(/mental) characters from the old days of the comedy circuit, gigs in dodgy East End pubs and Jay's joke making the front page of The New York Times.<br/><br/>A video version of this podcast is available on YouTube, where you can subscribe for all future episodes: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxeugCQL5zyVhd7pCEAi9GA<br/><br/>Jay's Edinburgh show "Bahookie" is on at the Gilded Balloon from 2-28th August.  Tickets here: https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/jay-lafferty-bahookie<br/><br/>We're now on Patreon!  Sign up for exclusive access for as little as £3 per month:<br/>https://www.patreon.com/somelaugh<br/><br/>Tickets for all three of the boays' Edinburgh Fringe shows in August and various work-in-progress shows are ON SALE NOW!<br/>Marc: www.marcjenningscomedy.com/gigs<br/>Stu: https://linktr.ee/StuartMcP<br/>Steve: https://linktr.ee/stephenbuchanan<br/><br/>You can follow Some Laugh on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok - and please remember to leave a 5 star review!Support the show
