Rosie Holt: Inside The Mind of a Tory MP

Season 2 Episode 17 Published 2 years ago
Description

Rosie Holt's viral portrayal of a Tory MP became so convincing it found its way into actual political discourse — and she's still processing that.

Rosie Holt is a British comedian, actor, and writer renowned for her incisive political satire and viral online sketches, and the author of Why We Were Right.

  • How a character created to satirise a political type captured something real enough to fool actual journalists
  • The thinking behind Why We Were Right — and what she learned writing it
  • Why Season 7 of Friends specifically doesn't hold up
  • Her firm stance against true crime — and what it reveals about the stories we choose to consume
  • The childhood X-Files trauma that she's still, apparently, not over
