S1E3 Is love funny? With Rosie Wilby

Location: Norman Park

Bromley

Guest: Rosie Wilby

Welcome to Park Date!

On this episode of Park Date, Rosie Wilby and Rosie's dog Dolly chat with me about break-ups, monogamy, marriage, and model aeroplanes. Plus we spy horses and hear the sound of something like a village fete but which I later realised was actually the noise of the crowd at Bromley FC.

Rosie Wilby is an award-winning comedian, author and podcaster who has appeared many times on BBC Radio 4 programmes including Woman's Hour, Saturday Live and Four Thought. Her first book Is Monogamy Dead? was longlisted for the Polari First Book Prize and followed a trilogy of solo shows investigating the psychology of love and relationships. Her new book The Breakup Monologues is based on her acclaimed podcast of the same name and is published globally by Bloomsbury. She is on Twitter @rosiewilby and Instagram @breakupmonologues

Do listen to Rosie's podcast The Break Up Monologues and buy the book too.

As ever a huge thank you to Lucia Scazzocchio, Luke Jones (do listen to his brilliant podcast https://southgirlproductionmusic.com/category/podcast-production/), Rosie (https://www.instagram.com/breakupmonologues/?hl=en) and Mae-Li Evans for encouragement, production support and advice. There would be no podcast without these people. THANKS GUYS.

Special thanks to the ever wise and supportive Elena Ourani, who might enjoy this one too. Cheers Elena!

Park Date is about mixing the silly with the serious so do listen out for the original comedy we're slotting in between and after the interviews (which are hopefully pretty funny themselves).

Do review, subscribe and like. What is ur favourite tree? Is it the oak? The larch? The parch? Namecheck as many trees as possible in your reviews and make them as surreal as possible - I have a very nice prize to give out to the writer of the funniest review at the end of Season 1.
