Reginald D Hunter
Book Shambles

They chat about what’s changed in Reginald’s comedy in the twenty years he’s been in the UK, the books his sisters made him read, the power of Charlie Brown, Richard Wright, Neil Postman and much more. Also this week, play the fun guessing game of who it was Josie was talking about that we had to bleep out…
