Paul Whitehouse and Dr. Mina Conkbayir: Love, Laughter and Living Apart

Comedian and actor Paul Whitehouse and his wife, award-winning author, lecturer and researcher Dr. Mine Conkbayir, around the Table for Four with Joanna Page and Mathew Horne for a warm, funny and candid conversation about life, love and the food that brings them together. Over smoked trout pâté, Turkish favourites and a nostalgic corned beef pie, Paul and Mine share the story of their relationship, why they've always chosen to live in separate houses, and how becoming podcast co-hosts has opened up honest conversations about ADHD, mental health and the realities of supporting one another. Paul also reflects on finding his place in comedy, becoming a devoted Spurs fan and the family recipes that still mean the most to him. There are plenty of laughs along the way too, from Paul's claim to fame as Baby Smile of the Rhondda Valley to his strong opinions on smoked trout, cold custard and why corned beef pie deserves far more respect.
