Описание: Host Jane Perrone chats to follow plant lovers Sarah Gerrard-Jones and Tea Francis in this special Late Night OTL episode.

What is Late Night On The Ledge?

Imagine a late night TV chat show featuring your favourite guests, lots of chat, a dash of gossip and the odd rant - that’s what you’re getting when you tune into Late Night On The Ledge. This is the first of four Late Night OTL episodes which will run every two weeks until the end of August. Two will be audio-only, and two will offer video as well.

Please note: this episode features swearing and probably isn’t suitable for younger ears. If you need to find another episode to listen to, why not check out my themed back catalogue?

A shoutout to Up Top Studios for their brilliant work hosting and recording this episode.
