Anita describes the impact that Tourette’s has had on her life and tells us about the darker side of her online fame.

Extraordinary Lives is a podcast from the team behind LADbible’s Minutes With. You can watch all of our videos here - https://www.youtube.com/c/LADbible/videos

We speak to remarkable people who each have a unique story to tell - spies, terrorists, hackers, gangsters, killers, people with particular conditions, and those who’ve lived unreal experiences. These are the stories that resonated the most with LADbible’s audience when they were originally told on Minutes With.

In this podcast, LADbible’s Ben Powell-Jones sits down with those individuals for a more in-depth conversation, revealing untold tales for the first time.
