Kicking off Series 5 in style as Alex chats to writer and performer John Kearns about the story behind ‘Ball & Boe', how his solo act has been perceived by audiences, and leaving everything to chance.

John also creates a character on the spot based solely on the made-up name given to him by Alex in our regular section ‘Chain(ge) of Character’. This episode was recorded 1st July 2025.
