Ep 158: Sam Tallent on "Running the Light", Living in an Anarchist Compound & Balancing The Road with Real Life


Listen Later

This week Marc & CMB are joined by comedian and author of "Running the Light" Sam Tallent. They swap stories of unplayable stand-up charity gigs, Sam reveals how he relied on eating out of dumpsters during his early days as a struggling artist, and shares some words of wisdom on how to balance life as a touring comic with taking care of yourself and your relationships. Plus, he discusses the origins and process behind his acclaimed novel "Running the Light", reveals which current Hollywood darling may be in place to play his protagnist Billy-Ray, and why he's developed such an affinity for Glasgow crowds.

Sam's novel "Running the Light" is available to purchase here: https://store.whiterabbitbooks.co.uk/products/running-the-light
