A comedy podcast about things that are actually sad. Alice Fraser brings you a series of three solo stand-up shows, that explore the boundary between comedy and tragedy. You’ll meet her family, her foes and the extremely strange community she grew up in. Each show is in two acts, it will make more sense if you choose Act 1 first.

Do you remember CrossBread? For a brief time, the Australian hip-hop act lit up the Christian music scene brighter than the star of Bethlehem but burnt out faster than Sodom and Gomorrah. CrossBread is a new comedy series starring Megan Washington, Chris Ryan, John Waters, Kate McLennan, Aaron Chen and Sami Shah with original music from Megan Washington.

PRESENTS CrossBread — A new musical comedy

Comedian Judith Lucy is totally overwhelmed by the state of the world and her own life. The family she grew up in is dead, she's a lot closer to dying than she wants to be and now after a particularly bad break-up, she's single again. 

So, great news Australia! Judith Lucy is going to solve her problems, and yours, over the course of a mere eight episodes, simply by chatting to some experts and having some vaguely humiliating experiences so you don't have to.

You'll laugh, you'll cry and you'll be absolutely thrilled that you are not Judith Lucy. Episode 1 out on March 6th.

PRESENTS — Judith Lucy - Overwhelmed and Dying
