Frogcast @ the Fringe: Janey Godley
Again I lure a comic to th heights of the Tron Penthouse, where I meet a Fringe legend: Janey Godley; comedian, author, actress, playwright, ex-pub landlord in the East End of Glasgow, and the woman who gave Jerry Sadowitz his first ever gig.
Described as:
“Scotland’s funniest woman… the Godmother of Scottish Comedy” (The Scotsman)
“The most outspoken female stand-up in Britain” (Daily Telegraph)
Over the hour we discuss comedy, the Fringe, her own fascinating personal history, her mother daughter podcast, her book “Handstands In The Dark” and much more besides. She was one of the most interesting, open and lovely people I’ve ever met at the Fringe, and this is a woman who has had a gun held to her head and laughed.
