Episode 71; A Life of Crime: Memoirs of a High Court Judge, Review

30/11/2017

A fascinating look into the life and "crimes" (worked upon by The Hon. Sir Harry Ognall. A high court judge who made headlines for fulfilling his duty in one of the most high profile cases in recent British history.

This however only tells part of the story of this rather remarkable person. The book details his life from childhood through the war and school into the world of the Bar (Barrister) and then to the position of a High court Judge.

The cases he worked on are important in their own right but also let you glimpse into the decision making world of an often miss understood profession.

Episode 62; How to be Champion: An Autobiography, Review

8/11/2017

If you have heard or watched Sarah Millican's stand up shows then you really should at some point. This book does not need you to know anything about her but it would feel remiss not to point you in the direction of one of my favourite stand ups working today.

Now to the book, this is a look at Sarah Millican in any her walks of life. From a child through a fair few jobs and a lot more in-between. She pulls no punches whether it be towards herself or other, helping to make this a must listen filled with laughs.

Episode 61; Unqualified, Review

7/11/2017

From the world of film, real life and Podcasts Anna Faris opens up to all in this witty and at times gut wrenching package of an audiobook.

Seemingly no subject is off the table as Anna reveals all about everything from her marriages to her career as well as her armpit hair. All in the name of giving us "dear listeners" some smattering of life advice from an Unqualified but delightful creator.

This book is wrapped up in some with the Anna Faris is Unqualified Podcast which is well worth your time to download if you have not already.

Episode 45; What Happened

2/10/2017

For many the 2016 US election was a shock and after spending nearly 17 hours with one of the candidates it's fair to say this is still the case (at least for me).

After listening to What Happened you feel that Hillary Rodham Clinton is not just a politician but also a Mother, Grandmother, campaigner, Lawyer and of course a politician. All these facets are explored within her book as she opens herself to the listener in what must have been a difficult book to write.

no matter who you voted for I think there is depth within the work that will appeal to all listeners and I highly encourage anyone who can to listen to What Happened.

Episode 32; Believe Me: A Memoir of Love, Death and Jazz Chickens, Review

8/8/2017

In terms of comedy few can stand up to the work of Eddie Izzard. In this memoir he brings his personality to the narration of this "Directors Cut" of his book.

Opening up about his life in terms of the loss of his mother at a young age, through school, Dyslexia and of course his sexuality with a level of insight and comedy that are truly infectious.

This has to be one of the best autobiographies I have reviewed and it is certainly worth listening to.
