Radio
In 2018, I started a weekly slot on the afternoon show on BBC Radio Oxford, where I previewed the best live comedy across Oxfordshire. Each week, I would invite a touring comedian onto Lilley Mitchell's afternoon show, and we would conduct an interview with them.
In 2019, BBC Radio Oxford invited me to host The BBC Radio Oxford Residency, with a comedy show called The Laugh Lounge. On this show, I interviewed comedians from the UK comedy scene, and would play a few original games to give the comedians a platform to make our radio audience laugh!
I was lucky enough to be asked to host a second show - another original format called The Dinner Party, in which I would ask guests to describe their dream dinner parties - who they would invite, what music they would play, and what their menu would be.
I love sitting in front of a microphone, having a chat with funny, creative, interesting people. I try to create a relaxed and fun atmosphere in the studio, and aim to find a balance between preparing questions in advance and going wherever the conversation takes us.

Podcasts
I presented and produced podcasts in association with the multi award-winning comedy production company, Jericho Comedy.
In each episode of The Dinner Party, I asked guests to describe their dream dinner parties - the venue, the menu and the guest list. The conversations were often funny and always fascinating! The podcast was nominated for Best Podcast at the 2021 Leicester Comedy Festival.
And the Jericho Comedy Podcast featured conversation, fun and games with some of our favourite regular performers.
