Athena Kugblenu and Death by Partridge - a podcast by Studio71 UK

In the bar this week is the fantastic Athena Kugblenu. Athena is a 2017 nominee for the 99 Club Female Comedians’ Bursary. She writes for BBC Radio 4, regularly records stand up for BBC radio and in 2017 performed at the Johannesburg International Comedy Festival. She has taken two acclaimed hours to the Edinburgh Fringe, KMT (2017) and Follow the Leader (2018). And as if that wasn't enough, look out for her appearances on panel show ‘Global Pillage‘ and hosting The Guilty Feminist Podcast, hosted by Deborah Frances-White.

At the Mystery on the Rocks bar you’ll find a retired sleuth, the bartender trying to settle his tab, and the down-on-her-luck lounge singer, solving mysteries and drinking cocktails. Each week a new guest enters the bar and attempts to solve an unsolved mystery alongside the regulars. Hosted by Masud Milas, Chris Stokes, and Sooz Kempner. It’s a high concept comedy and true crime podcast, set in a fictional crime-solving bar (with real cocktails!). The focus of the show is to attempt to crack a real, unsolved mystery from history – true crime and bizarre occurrences, all with a whodunnit or WTF happened question hanging over them. Masud makes the drinks, Chris tells the mystery and Sooz sings and plays live piano – and everyone chats and chimes in with their theories.
