014 Breakups, comedy and ethical relationships, with Rosie Wilby

Welcome to today's episode. In this episode, I chat to Rosie Wilby about connection and disconnection of relationships. Rosie is an award-winning comedian who has appeared many times on BBC Radio 4. Her first book Is Monogamy Dead? followed her trilogy of shows investigating the psychology of love. Rosie also presents The Breakup Monologues podcast, which provides the inspiration for her new book of the same name.  You can pre-order the book here: https://uk.bookshop.org/a/4562/9781472982308 or from other bookstores of course! Our chat includes: How Rosie became interested in exploring ethical and compassionate relationships through comedy How being a gay woman has informed her life, and driven her to speak about inclusion Comedy as a form of healing, through telling stories and helping people feel less lonely Rosie's Edinburgh show, Is Monogamy Dead and how people weren't quite ready for deeper conversations around monogamous and polyamorous relationships. The impact of the pandemic on breakups.
