This week, Georgie is joined by Magician (an actual Magician!), Comedian and Actor Ali Cook. Georgie couldn't resist asking Ali a million questions about his best tricks and whether magic is real (essential to know). Ali and Georgie also chat about Ali's work in stand-up and his latest role playing DCI Simmons in the upcoming crime thriller series, 'Ragdoll', coming to Alibi TV on 6th December. Georgie finds out what Ali's favourite film to watch at Christmas is, too (and reveals hers).

Georgie is joined by the brilliant Actor and Writer Tom Stourton ('Stath Lets Flats', 'Siblings', 'Horrible Histories') this week on the podcast. Tom chats about his early days in the industry including the YouTube series 'High Renaissance Man' which he co-created and starred in and which Georgie used to watch and love. Georgie also asks Tom about making the upcoming feature film 'All My Friends Hate Me' (look out for it - it's so good) and, of course, what he is watching on TV.

This week on the pod, Georgie sits down with Writer Mustafa Kaymak and Director Scott Aharoni who recently worked on creating the brilliant short film 'Leylak' which is eligible to be considered for a 2022 Academy Award. Georgie asks what it was like making a film about a pandemic, in a pandemic and she chats to Mustafa and Scott about what they are enjoying on television at the moment. Spoiler alert...she's SO happy she can discuss 'You' on Netflix with someone!

Georgie talks about what she has watched on television recently (and what shows to look out for) and then she’s joined by her friend, the brilliant Eleanor-Rose Fusaro, to talk about what they have been watching in cinemas recently (and what film they both abbbbbsolutely loved).
