Mad, Isn't It?
Richard talks to stand up comedian Emma Doran about her fantastic and funny memoir about teenage pregnancy “Mad, Isn't It?”. They chat about the difficulty of being on Last One Laughing, deciding to take up stand up during a maternity leave, how it's rare to hear the story of teenage pregnancy from the perspective of someone who has actually experienced it, why it was necessary to be completely honest about her teenage years, the positive outcomes from something that seemed like a disaster at the time and the hopefully changing attitudes to this regular and fairly predictable event! Plus gaining an audience from social media and some excellent book recommends!
