Sean chats with comedian, theatremaker and producer Liberty Hodes about 'satisfaction' as an aesthetic, sleep paralysis and the history of tetris. Liberty runs an exciting night in Newcastle and London called The Comedy Night That Passes The Bechdel Test. She is currently working on a show called Hot Commodity which explores the relationship between capitalism, commodification and the mental health crisis. The episode art for this episode is a piece of art that Liberty made which has been on my living room wall for the past year.
