Comedians Amy Gledhill and Harriet Kemsley recently shared their personal dating experiences through their podcast, "Single Ladies in Your Area." Their speed dating venture revealed not only their awkwardness but also their unique dynamic: Gledhill played the comic facilitator while Kemsley struggled with anxiety. Their podcast began after both revealed their newly single status at a comedy event, where they decided to embrace the vulnerability of their situations. Each episode exposes their fears and hearts, making their audience resonate with the ups and downs of modern dating.
We divulge too much, says Kemsley, sitting in the offices of the podcast's production company, fresh from another heart-on-sleeve recording.
The audience was made up of peers and friends, many of whom didn't yet know Gledhill had separated from her partner, nor that Kemsley had split from her husband.
It's horrible when you're doing live comedy and people are whispering: is this true?! I felt really embarrassed.
We came up with the concept at a comedy industry event: they had both decided to reveal they were newly single during their standup sets.
