Tales from Edinburgh Fringe: You're a Bit Too Much! Bonus EP#6

In this special Edinburgh Fringe Festival episode of Telling Tinder Tales, hosts Chris O'Neil and Thomasin Lockwood brave the blustery Scottish weather to bring you a hilarious, heartfelt, and wildly relatable dating story from comedian Pauline Eyre.From church crushes and university heartbreaks to a brush with a future Radiohead drummer, Pauline takes us through a pattern of romantic near-misses that left her being told—more than once—that she was “a bit much.” But in this raw and funny tale, she also reflects on how her later diagnosis of ADHD put those experiences into perspective.🎧 Tune in for:A backstage look at dating with undiagnosed ADHDWild Fringe weather and a near-ceiling collapsePlaying Frenchy in Grease (with pink hair spray-painted into place!)Almost dating Phil Selway from Radiohead before the band made it bigLearning how hyperfixation and comedy intersectPauline's reflections on love, loss, and the beauty of understanding yourselfA powerful connection to Lorde’s “Liability” and what that song unlocked for herWe also chat about her 2025 Fringe show “Anyone for Tennis?”, a love letter to the game and her two decades as a Wimbledon line judge—now obsolete thanks to tech.
