Get your festive gear on, grab a drink and hunker down for a jam packed Christmas episode including listener stories, some VIA ("very important animal") introductions and a generous helping of classic 98% chat from Alexa and Katie.

We are very excited to be back on the mic, with many new episodes in the bank and/or scheduled to record for a brand new series starting in the New Year! But for now, please enjoy a festive check in on relatable, realistic and humorous acconts from #actorslife.

Huge thanks to our listener guests...
