EDWARD LAURS: The Birth

Season 2

It was a home birth. Edward and his baby mama had whale CDs playing in the background, a doula and a midwife. Despite all their hypnosis birthing classes, 30 hours into keeping the birthing pool at a balmy 37.5 degrees, Edward and his girlfriend realise the nangs aren’t cutting it and call an ambulance. Edward thinks as a 22 mulleted vegan, no one really takes him seriously. But, he’s about to become a Dad.

Barefaced Stories are told live on stage at a tiny pub in the huge state of Western Australia.

Get your hands on a THINK BACK STACK if you want to come up with some great stories.
