Join Jon Richardson along with a special guest 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
