  • The Shrewsbury Biscuit Podcast: Happier Festival 2025 Preview
    Jul 14 2025

    Coming to you from The Shrewsbury Coffeehouse, Alex is joined by Sian from DwtyLife.com, who is bringing Happier Festival to The Flaxmill in Shrewsbury on 26th July 2025.

    But before we dive into the festival, we get to know more about Sian herself. In an open and honest conversation around mental health, Sian shares her personal journey — both physical and emotional — and how it led her to where she is today.

    In the midst of the pressures of life in the mid-2020s, it’s refreshing to discover spaces where you can drop your guard, unwind, and find inspiration for positive change. That’s exactly what Happier Festival aims to offer: a day for guests to connect with others, try something new, treat themselves, and simply enjoy a fun, uplifting experience.

    All the details and tickets can be found on the Dwty Life website — but to make things easier, here’s the direct link:

    Wishing all the best to Sian and the team — Happier Festival sounds like a winner!

  • The Shrewsbury Biscuit Podcast: Cally Beaton
    Jul 7 2025

    In anticipation of the hugely popular Shrewsbury International Comedy Festival, we bring you a comedy star of serious calibre — Cally Beaton!

    In this episode, Alex speaks with Cally about her fascinating journey from the world of corporate TV, where she worked with major names like MTV and Comedy Central, to the bold mid-life leap she made into stand-up comedy.

    Now an accomplished comedian, Cally is touring a hugely popular show, hosts the sharp and hilarious podcast Namaste Motherfckers*, and has a book of the same name on the way. The podcast features an impressive lineup of guests, and the upcoming book promises the same wit, insight and bite.

    You can explore everything Cally is up to — pre-order the book, catch up on podcast episodes, and grab tour tickets — via her website: https://callybeaton.com/

    To secure your tickets for events across the festival, head over to the Shrewsbury International Comedy Festival website: https://sicfest.co.uk/

    Huge thanks to Cally for being a fantastic guest, and a special shoutout to Nev Street for pulling this together — it was a scramble, but we made it happen!

  • The Shrewsbury Biscuit Podcast: Freya Rickman - Cooper Green Pooks
    Jun 30 2025

    While scrolling through social media, Alex stumbled upon some captivating content—side-by-side comparisons showing how Shrewsbury’s historic buildings once looked. Intrigued, he reached out to the creator behind the posts: Freya Rickman of Cooper Green Pooks, one of Shrewsbury’s oldest businesses.

    Freya’s passion for Shrewsbury—especially its rich history—is infectious, and the content she’s been producing lately truly deserves recognition.

    So, Alex invited Freya for a coffee and a chat at the Old Market Hall, right in the heart of town. And what better place to talk about history than a building that’s been standing since 1596?

    This conversation left Alex feeling genuinely inspired, especially by the energy and creativity of younger people engaging with local heritage in such meaningful, high-quality ways.

    A huge thank you to Cooper Green Pooks for lending us Freya, to the wonderful team at the Old Market Hall (especially Roberto) for being so welcoming, and of course to Freya—you're brilliant, keep doing what you do.
