The Way They Were

65: Max Davis: Paul Simon & Carrie Fisher

The force is definitely with us for this episode, as Chantal and Grainne are the bridge over the troubled romance of Carrie Fisher and Paul Simon! 
Yes, this week's guest, comedy writer Max Davis takes us into the amazing world of being young, famous and short in 1970s/80s New York, and what a scene it was - especially if Debbie Reynolds happened to be your mother...
As well as being a great story for us all, Max gets to imagine a world where he hangs out with his longtime crush on a wild night out with our erstwhile couple - let your imaginations run wild - Max certainly has.

The podcast where every celebrity split is the one that got away. Each week comedians Grainne Maguire and Chantal Feduchin-Pate take a deep dive into a celebrity breakup, chosen by a special guest, that still lingers in their hearts and minds. We scour interviews, over-analyse iconic pictures and search for meaning in post-breakup media statements. Celeb gossip hounds will feel right at home, but really anyone who's experienced a breakup can appreciate hearing how the rich and famous take heartbreak to a whole new level. They might uncouple ‘amicably with love and respect for one another’ - but we never get over these lost loves! Join us every Friday for a new episode.
