Sadia Azmat and the Riddle of the Flannan Isles Lighthouse Keepers - a podcast by Studio71 UK

Drinking the bar dry this week is the brilliant Sadia Azmat. Sadia is a British Asian Stand-up comedian and writer from East London. A chance encounter with a comedian in a call centre introduced her to the circuit where she has been a regular stand-up to date.

In 2018 Sadia launched her critically acclaimed BBC podcast “No Country For Young Women” which has enjoyed global success and consistent reviews from audiences and reviewers alike. The podcast explores Sadia and her friend discovering their roots and where to call home when your place of upbringing differs from those of your family.

Masud knocked together…

Virgin Mojito

8 Mint Leaves

At the Mystery on the Rocks bar you’ll find a retired sleuth, the bartender trying to settle his tab, and the down-on-her-luck lounge singer, solving mysteries and drinking cocktails. Each week a new guest enters the bar and attempts to solve an unsolved mystery alongside the regulars. Hosted by Masud Milas, Chris Stokes, and Sooz Kempner. It’s a high concept comedy and true crime podcast, set in a fictional crime-solving bar (with real cocktails!). The focus of the show is to attempt to crack a real, unsolved mystery from history – true crime and bizarre occurrences, all with a whodunnit or WTF happened question hanging over them. Masud makes the drinks, Chris tells the mystery and Sooz sings and plays live piano – and everyone chats and chimes in with their theories.
