## Resource

Working-class, feminist comedian Rachel Fairburn has long been a guaranteed good laugh on the comedy circuit, and a must-listen on All Killa No Filla, her smash hit true crime podcast with fellow standup Kiri Pritchard-McLean. Rachel’s new show, Vexy Beasts, moves her into the ‘character comedy’ bracket, as she introduces hairdresser Leanne, fighting for her salon’s life while spilling the T on her clients, in the fictional Manchester suburb of Harpurvale. Our Mick was keen to find out more. Give Rachel a follow on Instagram, or visit her website for forthcoming gig details. As ever, there is bonus natter for our £5 and above Patreons, which includes more class chat and a whole load of Blackpool love. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
