Ep 198: Karen Dunbar on Chewin' The Fat, Manifesting & Performing in front of Meryl Streep
Some Laugh
The boays are joined by comedian and star of Chewin' the Fat Karen Dunbar. Karen discusses how her childhood TV ambitions and drive to put herself manifested in being cast in the hit series (if not quite "Global Domination"), recounts her time performing live doing prank calls and karaoke "when it had just came oot", and talks about her most popular characters from the iconic Scottish sketch show. Plus, they chat about Karen's experience doing stand-up, performing Shakespeare in front of Meryl Streep, and the ovation she received at the Hydro when making a cameo in Still Game Live.
Karen is touring her stand-up show "Aw Roon the Hooses" throughout Scotland in 2026. Tickets here: linktr.ee/karendunbarofficial
