Drewling Samantics
Drew and Sam are actors. They haven’t won any Academy Awards yet, and neither of them is in line to be the new James Bond (sorry Sam), but between them they do have over half a century’s worth of experience in the industry. Many months ago a combination of boredom, significantly reduced work opportunities (thanks pandemic!) and overactive and under-stimulated imaginations inspired them to create a podcast, and somehow they’re still at it. Join the Drewling Samantics chaps every Sunday (or download and listen later) as they give an entertaining insight into how their industry works - from modelling to voiceover, theatre to film, and television to streamed media, the gents talk about all areas of performance artistry, giving an insider view that is sometimes humorous, often eye-opening or poignant, and at times just downright strange! With regular guest appearances and the odd special ‘on location’ segment, Drewling Samantics brings something unique and fresh to the world of podcasts from two normal blokes, working in a rather abnormal industry.

River Deep, Mountain High(Heels!)
Drew and Sam are feeling grateful and excited in equal measure this week, as for the first time in Season Twelve they are lucky enough to be joined by a brilliant visitor - and what a way to start the guest visits!
Jonathan Carlton is an extremely talented performer with numerous West End shows under his belt, including some of the most popular stage musicals of recent times. But his work has not been limited to dry land, Jonathan is also a season performer when it comes to the world of cruise-ship entertainment - a veteran of the seas you might say! Theatrical endeavours on the waves have become more and more respected as a training ground for musical theatre actors (especially with the impressive quality of the shows in modern times) and Jonathan is a shining example of the high standards of production to be found on board ships.
He discusses his journey through the industry, some of his favourite roles, why educating and supporting performers from a young age is so important, the wonderful if a little surreal event of meeting a relative stranger who is very significant in his life, and even the advantages of a well-fitting high heel! With great stories and even greater advice Jonathan is a fabulous first guest and certainly sets the bar high for the rest of the season!
