Palsville

When comedian and lactose intolerant angel Taylor Griffiths visits Mayor Ashley in town, they're mid sludge talk when local lonely man Herman Withers stops by. He and Mayor Ashley recount their days at Palsville High, where she was an exchange student, and discover a "harmless" bet she made about him when they were teens has led him down a dark path. The local historian is called, a sentient dog chimes in with her take on a potentially dark situation, and male loneliness in Palsville is CURED.Follow Ashley Apap on socials @ashleycrapapFollow Palsville on socials @palsvillepodFollow Taylor Griffiths on socials @taylor_the_curatorFollow Mario Hannah on socials @mario.hannah_Created, produced and hosted by Ashley Apap thanks to Grouse House/Haven't You Done Well and Humdinger Studios (formerly Stupid Old Studios).

Writer, comedian and Voice of a Generation (not an opinion, just a fact, hunty!) Alistair Baldwin and Ashley really show instead of telling about their friendship in this episode.

Mayor Ashley attempts to smooth this dispute, discovering different levels of gumming being performed, as well as the discovery of a surprise 6th addition to the episode who slides in and out unexpectedly.Follow Ashley Apap on socials @ashleycrapapFollow Palsville on socials @palsvillepodFollow Millie Holten on socials @millieholtenFollow Matthew Jackson on socials @thisismattjacksonFollow Hayley Tantau on socials @hayleytantauFollow Dale Anderson on socials @dale_andoCreated, produced and hosted by Ashley Apap thanks to Grouse House/Haven't You Done Well and Humdinger Studios (formerly Stupid Old Studios).

Mayor Ashley is visited by comedian Grace Jarvis when her unhinged Aunt Sue pops her head into the office. She reveals the unconventional methods used to create her unique fashions, to get through airport security, and what she dressed the Mayor in as a child. There is also much discussion about rabies, the Palsville Intranet and as always, the local dogs.Follow Ashley Apap on socials @ashleycrapapFollow Grace Jarvis on socials @gracejarvisohnoFollow Cass Paige on socials @casscasspaigeCreated, produced and hosted by Ashley Apap thanks to Grouse House/Haven't You Done Well and Humdinger Studios (formerly Stupid Old Studios).

Bianka Ismailovski came on through into Palsville to hang out with Mayor Ashley, but her unhired PA/local jeweller Mandy Vankleefken had to interrupt the meeting. She's been helping the Mayor work on her public speaking skills, which it turns out are bad for someone with such a public facing job. Bianka dubbed Mandy a brazilnut mum and the Mayor tries to prepare for the imminent spooky season.Follow Ashley Apap on socials @ashleycrapapFollow Bianka Ismailovski on socials @biankaismailovskiFollow Elouise Eftos on socials @weezasqueezaCreated, produced and hosted by Ashley Apap thanks to Grouse House/Haven't You Done Well and Humdinger Studios (formerly Stupid Old Studios).
