Postcards from the Edge episodes

  • Eve
    In our second lockdown episode Ayda catches up with rapper, actress, talk show host and all round superwoman Eve to chat about lockdown life, UK vs LA weather (how very British) and what it's like be American women married to Englishmen from Stoke. Could this be the most random coincidence of the series maybe? Enjoy!

  • Gary Barlow
    In our first lockdown episode, Ayda calls up her fave member of Take That (sorry Rob!) the wonderful Gary Barlow for a catch up on how things are going in the 'new normal'. Among other things, they discuss American boybands vs British ones, who in Take That got the most fan mail and how difficult it is to find a chainmail thong. All will be explained. Enjoy.

  • Olly Murs
    In this very first episode of Postcards from the Edge, Ayda and Gwen sit down with singer, songwriter and TV presenter Olly Murs for a good old-fashioned British chinwag. Among other things, they discuss Olly's passion for fitness, hiding Big Macs from your other half and Gwen's killer legs (sorry Ayda). Enjoy.

  • Postcards from the Edge - Trailer

    They speak the same language (well, sort of), so why do the Americans and the British do pretty much everything differently? In her new podcast “Postcards From The Edge”, Ayda Williams, an American in Britain, tries to make some sense of this endlessly baffling and frequently absurd cultural divide. (Is there really no limit to the ways British people are weird and illogical? And why do they keep saying “sorry”, especially as they’re rarely sorry for the stuff they should be?) Each week Ayda sits down with a noted British person to explore these differences and grapple for common ground, periodically aided and abetted by her very definitely American mother Gwen and her very definitely British first husband Robbie Williams.
