They discuss getting drunk on live TV with Dua Lipa, whether David needs therapy to unpack the different in sizes between his and his dad’s instruments, how David might be at the exact right level of fame and what that means about interactions with his fans, confounding Richard Wilson, David’s possible hidden superpower, why awards mean nothing if you’re won them, how David saved the careers of the Flight of the Conchords and how Nish Kumar’s diarrhoea proved that David’s podcast idea would be a hit .

RHLSTP Book Club 158 - Andrew Michael Hurley
RHLSTP Book Club #158 - Saltwash - Richard talks to award-winning author Andrew Michael Hurley about his latest book, Saltwash. Is it horror or literary fiction? is it important for people writing about dark subjects to have three names? What attracted Andrew to writing about dilapidated seaside resorts - and has he ever been to Weston-super-Mare? How does he make his novels so atmospheric? What’s it like getting a quote from Stephen King? Plus Andrew’s remarkable leap to success (after only ten years of work) and how a 300 book print run led to a hugely successful first novel, Richard reveals how little he knows about Gothic novels (or what they even are), how we are all haunted by the mistakes we've made in life and how the contemplation of our own mortality can drive so much of our lives. Does writing a creepy book mean you can’t escape the subject in your downtime? Lots of questions, but thankfully some answers too!Buy the book here - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/saltwash-the-chilling-new-novel-from-the-master-of-menace-andrew-michael-hurley/7895486SUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE Hosted on Acast.
