All Made Up

EP84 - Clementine Bogg-Hargroves - Driving Over Christmas (Christmas Special)For Gertrude, Christmas isn’t a time for joy—it’s a relentless reminder of everything she’s lost. Six years ago, her wife and two children were tragically killed. The killer Father Christmas and his sleigh. Ever since that night, Gertrude has devoted her career as a lawyer to proving Santa’s guilt in the crime. The problem? No one believes her. But this Christmas, a miracle arrives in the form of Alan, a scruffy, suspicious elf who turns up at her door with an extraordinary claim: he has dashcam footage that could finally prove Father Christmas is guilty. Seizing the chance for justice, Gertrude teams up with Alan and embarks on a perilous journey to the North Pole to uncover the truth. What begins as a simple quest for evidence spirals into chaos as Gertrude finds herself in a world of bar brawls, seductive women, and highly questionable uses for mistletoe. From murder to mince pies, this is an All Made Up Story that’s equal parts heartwarming, hilarious, and utterly unhinged.Wanna follow Clementine Bogg-Hargroves…Insta: @clementinebogghargrovesWanna follow Harry Stachini…Insta: @HarrystandupFB: @Harrystachinicomedian YouTube: @HarrystachiniTwitter: @HstachiniThe Staff Room PodcastWanna follow Lewis Coleman…Insta: @lewiscolemanTwitter: @LewisColeman93Wanna follow Ben Hart…Insta: @benhartcomedyFB: @benhartactorTwitter: @benhart0592CreditsRecorded and edited by Lewis Coleman Produced by @GetGiddierArtwork by Elliot @melodyleeart Soundtrack by @grahammccusker#Allmadeup #Christmas #Podcast #Storytelling #Northpole #Festive #Truecrime #Festive  Hosted on Acast.

EP83 - Charlie Lewis - Gear Or No GearBarry Trotter, once the glittering star of 1980s children's TV, is now a washed-up 74-year-old performer struggling to stay afloat. With his glory days long behind him, Barry scrapes by entertaining unimpressed audiences at dingy social clubs, while sharing a cramped bedsit with his elderly mother. Barry's troubles go deeper than bad gigs and fading fame—he’s drowning in gambling debt. His tormentor? Roger Kittyfeathers, a smug businessman-turned-loan shark with a grudge. Turns out Roger was humiliated live on Barry's show as a child, and he’s been nursing his vendetta ever since. Now, Roger’s got Barry on the ropes, demanding £5000 in a week or the bedsit goes. Desperate and out of options, Barry enters Celebrity Deal or No Deal. With no money and little dignity, Barry faces off against The Banker. Will Barry claw his way back to redemption—or will he leave the studio more humiliated than ever?

EP82 - Ryan Kenny - Karaoke and KickoffsDean Gafney, 35, lives for music and runs a karaoke bar in Manchester, but his heart has always held a soft spot for football—thanks in part to his ex-wife, Coleen, a former pro footballer. When a group of ex-Manchester United fringe players—including Eric Djemba-Djemba, Anders Lindegaard, and Rodrigo Possebon—stumble into his bar during a wild night out, Dean finds himself unexpectedly invited to play in a charity football match at Hotel Football. But there’s a twist: Coleen has been recruited to play for the opposing team. Now, years after their marriage fell apart, the two are set to face off on the pitch in a game that’s anything but friendly. With slide tackles, lightning strikes, and old emotions bubbling to the surface, Dean must navigate the chaos on and off the field, proving that in football—and in life—anything is truly Possebon.

But Saboteur is determined to change that. For the second time in their life, Saboteur, ventures above ground to champion the existence of their kind. But there's a sticky twist: the first time they emerged into society, it wasn’t to spread awareness—it was to make a quick buck at a sperm bank. Now, 30 years later, Saboteur learns the shocking truth: their donation has spawned a new generation of flubber-like beings who are scattered across the world. As Saboteur sets out to track down these flubber-kids, they must determine whether they are allies eager to unite or foes out to expose their existence to the world.

EP78 - Michael Mannion - Point-Blank LoveEmma Nightingale, a 35-year-old librarian, has spent years searching for love—though mostly by judging men the way you’d judge a book by its cover (which, spoiler alert, never ends well).

The trigger-happy culprit? 6-year-old Martha, who’s a bit confused about why Emma is in bed with her dad, Callum and not her mum Donna. After being shot at point-blank range and stumbling off to work half-blinded, Emma wonders if her love life has truly reached its lowest point. But then, in a plot twist, she never saw coming, she meets Patrick—the man of her dreams! The only problem? Just as things are looking up, President Donald Trump announces that a giant asteroid is hurtling toward Earth, and we’ve got 21 days left to live. Will Emma and Patrick find their happily-ever-after before the asteroid arrives? Or will their love story be the shortest one in history?

EP75 - Graham Kay - LIVE @edfringe 2024 - Ice DreamsMick has never fully recovered from his divorce from Cheryl Anne. For the past 10 years, he’s been adrift, disconnected from any sense of happiness and—worse—his three teenage sons, who barely acknowledge him as their dad. While his ex-wife and kids thrive, Mick’s stuck managing a bus depot in Sheffield, surrounded by colleagues who show him little respect. Life’s monotony is slowly crushing him, until, pushed to the brink, Mick makes a drastic decision: he converts one of his buses into an ice cream truck. What starts as a desperate attempt to find purpose sets Mick on a life-changing journey. From battling local ice cream turf wars to dealing with his own self-doubt, Mick is forced to reckon with the demons he’s been avoiding for years. Along the way, he’ll have to rebuild his bond with his sons, rediscover his own self-worth, and, for once, stand up for himself. Filled with laughter, heart, and some questionable ice cream jingles, Ice Dreams is a tale of redemption, family, and one man’s journey to find the sweetness in life again.
