Ed & Lauren: Ep03: Tasty Pastries & Cannibalistic Cacti

Kench
Contains strong language and scenes of a sexual nature.

Available for over a year

Comedians Ed Night and Lauren Pattison chill out at Ed’s flat in the heart of Edinburgh after a night out that has left the pair a bit fragile. Ed’s flatmates and fellow comics Rosco McLelland & Chris MacArthur Boyd swing by for a chat about cannibalistic cacti and what to do if your flatmate kills the power at your gig. Ed & Lauren also talk about their dislike of people sneaking vegetables into their food and what the hell comedians actually do during the day at the Edinburgh Fringe. Over six episodes Ed and Lauren are taking part in the whirlwind that is Edinburgh Fringe festival and bringing a brutally frank and funny look at what it takes to make people laugh for a living. Expect falafel challenges, hungover walks and soul-searching late-night chats with their comedy mates as they wonder what they’ve let themselves in for. This is a Whistledown production for BBC Radio 1.
