Welcome to Pub Chats & A Pint, a podcast series sponsored by Harp where we sit down with interesting local people in a Belfast pub.

Today we are in The Orpheus Bar in the Cathedral Quarter and are joined by comedian, actor and social media star Abbie Parkinson.

In this episode we talk about:

• The mad TikTok journey that led to her stardom
• Dreaming of becoming a world-famous actor from a young age
• Moving from Fermanagh to Chicago
• Dealing with the rejection involved in pursuing acting
• The shadow side of social media
• Going to Country To Country with her ma to see Luke Combs
• Cycling across Cuba under the Cuban curse
• And how her faith keeps her rooted
