6. Jo Brand and Eshaan Akbar
Laura Smyth speaks to comedians Jo Brand and Eshaan Akbar about their strong, rebellious mums.
Jo tells us how her mum sweet-talked her way into Libya, renounced Catholicism as a teenager and stopped at nothing to stand up for what she believed in. Eshaan explains how his mum invented UberEATS, used him as a human shield against the Bangladesh Army, and how he has coped with tragically losing such an incredible character.
In this series, Laura Smyth sits down with some incredible guests to find out about their mums and explore the many faces of 鈥榤otherhood鈥�. Join her for a nostalgic, shameless, cathartic ride that asks what (if anything) our folks have taught us.
