Aisling Bea: I'm Not Passive Aggressive, I'm Irish

Aisling Bea is a comedian, actress, and the BATFA winning writer of This Way Up; she's witty, honest, and extremely talented, so of course, I was very excited to have her pop by for a chat...

Aisling and I discuss identity post-motherhood, Catholic guilt and the wild politics of leaving a WhatsApp group. Aisling also shares the story of the unlikely friendship she struck up with a neighbour during the pandemic, and why she'll never forgive herself for not being there in his final days.

We also talk about the impact Sinead O'Connor's death left on Aisling and the importance of standing up for what is right and having a community to support you.

This conversation was everything I hoped it would be, deep, authentic, and absolutely hilarious!
