Comedian Tasmyn Kelly brings bold show to Edinburgh Fringe
After a sold-out run in 2023 with Crying in TK Maxx, comedian Tamsyn Kelly brings her highly-anticipated new stand-up hour Hot Titty Bungalow to the 2025 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. After just four months of dating, Tamsyn moved to Glasgow for love and left behind her matriarchal family in Penzance (and more heartbreakingly, her hairdresser). Told through razor-sharp storytelling, Hot Titty Bungalow is an honest, messy, and hilarious exploration of love, loneliness, and independence. There's grief, a malfunctioning love egg (the sex toy world's answer to a Tamagotchi), and the realisation that adult friendships are harder than Bumble For Friends would have you believe. A hilarious hour of family, questionable decisions, and not just starting over, but figuring out who you are when the dust—and the Glasgow rain—settles. Tamsyn Kelly is a working-class comedian, actor, and writer from Penzance, Cornwall. She debuted at the Fringe in 2019 with Petroc, an acclaimed show about growing up on a council estate, followed in 2023 by Crying in TK Maxx, praised for its gossipy charm and emotional bite. A regional finalist in the BBC New Comedian of the Year Award 2021, she's since appeared on The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2) and has a script commission from Channel 4.

Bumble is laying off 30 percent of its workforce
Bumble, the makers of the Bumble Dating App and Bumble For Friends, announced Wednesday that the company will be laying off 30 percent of its workforce, or roughly 240 employees. This comes as dating app companies struggle to perform in recent years. Bumble was once a company worth almost $8 billion, but finds itself worth about 90 percent less today. Founder Whitney Wolfe Herd had briefly stepped down as CEO in early 2024 before returning as CEO this year. The company has posted declining revenues this year as it struggles to attract and maintain paying members. In a statement to CNBC , a Bumble spokesperson said, "Our focus now is on moving forward in a way that strengthens our core business, continues to serve our members effectively, and positions us for future growth." Bumble added new safety and verification tools back in March that allow users to upload an image of their government-issued ID and receive a verification badge on their profiles. Users searching through profiles could then filter their search to show only verified users. Trust and safety issues are of paramount concern on dating apps where you meet up with strangers. New features like Share Date on Bumble and double dating on Tinder aim to ease the anxiety of what are normally solo meetups. The securities filing for the layoffs said that employees were notified today but did not include any details on whether the affected employees were mostly in Bumble's Austin, TX, headquarters or global in scope. The company has also not shared which teams have been affected. If you buy something through a link in this article, we may earn commission.
