Summary

Our guest for this episode is the hilariously brilliant comedian Sindhu Vee! She tells us about her experience of growing up in India, and how parenting styles can differ between east and west. We also learn about a unique discipline technique involving a tea tray.

Sindhu tells us what possessed her to try stand-up without ever having seen it before. And she explains how, annoyingly, she went on to become amazingly good at it, and get nominated for loads of awards.

We find out Sindhu's mum's mottos for living, and she shares her tips for surviving the Edinburgh Festival. We round off with not one, but TWO of the best Scummy Mummy Confessions we've ever heard.

Sindhu is currently touring her show Sandhog - for dates and tickets, visit sindhuvee.com. You can follow her on Twitter @sindhuvfunny.
