Margaret Cabourn-Smith interviews comedian Chris Cantrill about his experiences and thoughts on comedy and relationships.

Gang! It's another episode of Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast where funny people have all their stories about unrequited love forced out of them. Thanks for getting involved (reading this).   Today's episode features the hilarious unique comic brain (and body) of comedian and writer Chris Cantrill. Chris has just come off writing all your favourite sketches on SNL UK and is off to Edinburgh to do his show Rewilding and told me exactly what he thinks about other comedians in their 40s, as well as how he handles over-keen fans.
