well as loads of other links to catch it on audio.

very pretty. So, Hello and welcome to the show I'm Stuart Goldsmith and today I'm talking to

Athena Koblenu. She is a fantastic comic, very passionate political comic intent on making people laugh even when they disagree with her.

We're going to talk about joining the comedy circuit from a successful career in the public sector and will also cover why

she doesn't debate on Facebook we'll talk about affinity bias and assimilation and

graft actual proper solid hard work she knows a thing or two about that. Big fan of

Athena really really exciting episode. You can catch her podcast keeping Athena

company and you can find that at Athena

Kuglenny.com slash Podcast or wherever you get your

podcast you know where you get podcast we'll get it there and you can follow her

at Athena Koblenu that's k-u-g-b-lenU on Twitter and Instagram and probably more besides.

That was an incredibly limber introduction, so let's get on with it.

I'm excited about this one.

Here's Athena. Athena, how can I help you on your quest to destroy the patriarchy, white supremacy

and demonic head demonic structures?

Oh wow, that's, you have done your research you give me a platform.

There we go that's a start.
