0:04.1

Hello and welcome to episode.

0:19.3

Now I am actually off this week. I'm off this week. The missus demanded it. I'll be working. I haven't had proper time off for a long time. So it's a free line whip from the misses. But I didn't want to let you guys down. And specifically, obviously, podcast listeners, but I have patrons. This is the whole point about having a patron that keeps the podcast weekly and ad free. I've got clients, babe, got clients. So I don't have some of the usual

wanted to speak to rachel for a while obviously my my co-host uh co-h fucking i'm not even a co-star

1:08.4

of the mash report she's the big star i pop up the. But obviously, she was a huge breakout star of that show. So in the conversation, we talk about her experience of being on the show, what it was like for those clips to go viral. And bear in mind, you've got to remember that those were more. I mean, we're talking like millions. And we'll speak about it in the interview. And the impact that that had on her career, you know, both good and bad in terms of the kind of trolling you get, but she's very positive about stuff. We get an insight into, you know, Rachel's politics, something she actually, a lot of people might think that, you know, she's a raging lefty and stuff, but I think the truth as it comes out is a bit more moderate than that and

1:45.2

if you are here because you're a rachel paris fan uh welcome to the show this is called what most

1:49.3

2:37.1

2:43.8

Lisa ramsie blythe i mean if i would just if i was trying to come up with a posh character

2:50.5

in in a drama people can say that that's too much, Jeff. And it's also, I think it's Liza, Liza Ramsey Blythe.
