How to laugh when you’ve been to hell and back
Listen now
Description
‘If you don’t laugh, you’ll cry’, as the saying goes. These heightened emotions often sit very close to each other, and there’s a split second where we can decide whether to despair, or to see the funny side of a situation.    Today, Fearne revisits Happy Place conversations that highlight the crossroads where people have decided to cope with s****y incidents by laughing at them, or at themselves.   Amongst other guests, Adele Roberts tells the absurd story of what happened to her stoma the night before running the London Marathon, and Dawn French chats about owning the moments you were a bit of a t**t.   ...and for a really good laugh, there are some behind the scenes outtakes as Fearne attempted to record some calming – and unexpectedly erotic – sleepy stories for the Happy Place app...   Listen to Fats Timbo’s episode   Listen to Adele Roberts’ episode   Listen to Dawn French’s episode   Listen to Vicky Pattison’s episode   Download the Happy Place app Hosted on Acast.
