Cathal Kelly + the Political Panel with Jenni and Scott

We are so delighted to have Naomi from Consumed by Ink joining us to discuss the 2019 Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour, Boy Wonders by Cathal Kelly. We delve into lots of stuff in this one. We look forward to the emails and comments that will surely ensue. What’s your take on the Leacock Award? How do you feel about memoirs? Do you remember the television show called V? Are The Littlest Hobo and The Beachcombers not absolute classics of television history? Tell us. We will be announcing our pick for Indie Month very soon (and maybe a guest host!). Keep your eyes open for that. Other books discussed in this podcast:  Black Writers Matter edited by Whitney French Bad Ideas and The Love Monster by Missy Marston The Case of the Missing Men and Use Your Imagination! by Kris Bertin Louisburg or Bust by R.C.
