Funny Women Awards finalist of 2014, Samantha Baines, has a new, daily podcast, Silly News with Samantha Baines, which may just be the shortest podcast ever to hit the internet, at just one minute long!
In her new family-friendly podcast, Silly News with Samantha Baines, Samantha will be sharing all the hilarious, strange and wonderful real-life news from across the globe – including the stories you didn’t know you and your kids needed! This is a news show with a difference, no miserable content, just fun and silliness for all ages.
As heard on BBC Radio London. “I hope this new podcast makes people giggle and starts silly conversations. Would you wear a scarf made out of dog hair? It is also short enough to fit into any length family/school commute (the podcast not the scarf).” – Samantha Baines
