About This Podcast

Take a 10-15 minute break from the world's madness with a quick catch up call from actor, comedian and writer, Jo Burke. Jo is a born and bred Londoner, who works from home and her creative space, Custard HQ, in Folkestone. She will be getting random stuff off her chest, on a weekly basis, using her own voice and thoughts. NB: This is not a comedy podcast. That's not to say it might not make you laugh sometimes but it's much more a personal journal/mental health check in. Oh and occasionally she may invite one of the characters she creates for her shows and sketches to share their world view too. Although she will be talking at you she will be delighted to receive your input or any random thoughts you have too. You may also like her first podcast 'Real Folk with Jo Burke' (also FREE) where you can hear Jo chat with some amazing and inspiring real folk about their life stories. Her books are available via www.custardhq.com
