In the first ever 'Life After Jazz Hands' Special, we sit down with guests Amy Pemberton, Philip Coyle and Tasha Sheridan. We discuss the experience of the being part of the Podcast. From what they have learnt about themselves, what they have learnt from and about others, plus what has happened just in the 6 Months alone since recording began. We listen to some of the most poignant moments from people's episodes so far, and how their stories resonate with all of us. Expect plenty of laughs, some naughtiness and lots of love.
