In this episode we are talking the shit day jobs we have to work inbetween acting work. We discuss the Eastenders actress being shamed in the press for earning a living, we discuss Tom & Ellen's day jobs, the most popular flexible jobs for creatives & the word that everyone hates... Taxes! Alongside all this we have 2 brand new comedy sketches and of course the audition stories of the week!

So we have reached episode 3 of Pure Graft. Because Tom & Ellen are both northern, poor, working class actors they will be talking about how expensive it is to forge a career in the arts. They talk actor starter packs, drama school audition fees, how to help each other out and much more. Alongside that we have 3 sketches this week and of course your audition stories of the week!

This week we discuss the dreaded topic of agents. We begin with our "Break up sketch" then we talk finding agents, the graft we put in to get an agent, alongside our own experiences. Then we move onto the segment why we all tune in, yes, it's funny audition stories of the week. We have multiple stories ranging from pitchforks to swinging your coat around your head.
