Shownotes
An interview podcast giving the inside scoop of what happens in comedy scenes across the globe and dedicated to speaking to the mavericks in the comedy world. We have a spectacular guest for the show, Helen Prior.
Helen is a former art historian, and comedian with Ukrainian and Russian ancestry. She transformed herself from a cancer victim into a victorious survivor, where she relishes life and has embarked on many adventures. She has now got into comedy as it is a great substitute for everything what she thinks women of her age are missing in life – attention, love and a new career. She is a very forthright, straight-shooter and some say controversial, here is an overview of what we discussed:
