Q&A

Sun, 05 Mar 2023 21:20:18 GMT

After the live performance of 'Melody's Story Hour' at the London Podcast Festival we had a fun Q&A with the audience about Petrified - how it came about, unusual recording methods and why, for one of us, nothing is scarier than eggs.


To mark the end of series 3 we wanted to share that Q&A with you. The discussion was moderated by Petrified producer Liam Geraghty who is joined by cast members Michelle McMahon and Margaret McAuliffe as well as writer/director Peter Dunne.
