 🎙️ The MarshyCast is back! 🎙️ 

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back! It might have been a shorter week thanks to Easter, but that hasn’t stopped us from packing in a bumper episode for you lovely lot. 

If this weekly dose of MarshyCast simply isn’t enough, don’t forget you can also catch my podcast with Casey Major Bunce (aka @MajorMumHacks), and all my Portsmouth-based chats on the Portsmouth People podcast – both available via the Express FM website. 

This week on the show: 

🌴 Presenter Denise Van Outen joins me to chat about prepping for the perfect holiday, why cruising could be your ideal escape, and what it’s like teaming back up with her old Big Breakfast pal Johnny Vaughn. 

💙 Dr Martha takes us into the world of Bluey – specifically its longest-ever episode The Sign. We talked about why Bluey is such a powerful show for families, and how it cleverly reflects real-life emotions and relationships in a way that resonates with kids and adults. 

🎬 Directors Alexander Kiesl & Steffen Hacker tell me all about their new film Home Sweet Home: Rebirth, adapted from a hit video game. We talked about how they gave the horror-thriller genre a deeper emotional core, how their visual effects background brought the film to life, and the performances of stars Michele Morrone and William Moseley. 

🎹 And finally, I caught up with comedian Huge Davies – yes, that Huge Davies – who’s currently touring across the UK with his hilariously oddball musical comedy. Expect songs apparently handed down through the generations by ET, Grandpa Joe, the cast of Friends, and more… This one takes some wild turns! 

As ever, thank you so much for your support – whether you’re a first-time listener or a long-time MarshyCaster. Don’t forget to like, share, subscribe, and tune into my live shows on Express FM and HGV1 Radio throughout the week. 

Until next time – stay brilliant!
