Jon Richardson in Conversation: The Teenage Diaries of a Stand-Up Comedian Includes Book

Join Jon Richardson along with Susie McCabe as he takes you through his new book and much more. What possible value could there be in revisiting the awkward, unfiltered thoughts of a 14-year-old boy, especially now, in his forties and a successful comedian, actor and father? As it turns out, quite a lot. In this candid memoir, Jon reconnects with his younger self – a boy growing up in an era when Oasis dominated the charts and Baywatch dominated his imagination. From embarrassing teenage misadventures, including a mortifying PE lesson involving a climbing rope, to small but significant triumphs like earning a pack of Chewits for the ‘cleanest tent’ at scout camp, Jon revisits the moments that shaped him and, ultimately, set him on the path to comedy.

"Whip-smart comedy... His mind is extraordinary." GQ "A wildly funny whinge of volcanic frustrations" ★★★★ The Guardian
