I am so excited to share this episode with the one and only Olivia Cooke, which we recorded live from the London Podcast Festival!

Olivia has shown us so much range on screen from big movie blockbusters like Steven Spielberg's ‘Ready Player One’ to playing THE Allicent Hightower in ‘House of The Dragon.’ But as you will discover in this episode Olivia serves just as much range when chatting off screen.

As Olivia takes on the role of Cherry in your new TV obsession ‘The Girlfriend’ on Amazon Prime we chat about her journey from growing up in Oldham to starting work at 18 and all the lessons, challenges, successes and failures she’s encountered along the way.

Prepare to laugh a lot as Olivia as she shares hilarious stories including one involving a merkin and to be uplifted too as Olivia opens up about her mental health journey and the power of friendship. If you enjoy listening to Olivia as much as I did, get in touch as I always love chatting to you and you can find me @joshsmithhosts across socials. Love, Josh x
