It's two returning champs this week as we present the brilliant and hilarious Lou Sanders and Andi Osho live at the Turner Contemporary as part of the Margate Bookie literary festival. Lou and Andi are both stand-ups and both supreme authors. Lou recently published her memoir What's That Lady Doing? to widespread acclaim. Andi has published two celebrated novels: Tough Crowd and Asking for a Friend. In this frank, funny and freewheeling conversation Lou and Andi discuss romance, the fear of death (onstage), ice-skating, unfortunate text message mishaps, youthful indiscretions with towels and what makes them laugh.

Lou Sanders and Andi Oshi Live at the Margate Bookie - You're Booked

Welcome to You’re Booked, the podcast for literary nosy parkers who would like the chance to snoop around their favourite authors’ bookshelves.I’m Daisy Buchanan, your Book Inspector, and I’ll be asking our guests all about the first forbidden books they read under the covers, the beloved books they have borrowed, and never given back, and those impressive heavyweight hardbacks that make them look like intellectual giants – even though they couldn’t get beyond the first twenty pages.We’ll also be talking about what makes readers into writers, how our guests became book lovers and their favourite reading memories, all with a dash of intelligence and a dollop of irreverence. Our guests include Dolly Alderton, Nina Stibbe, Nikesh Shukla, and many more favourites from our own bookshelves. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

While we're taking a little break, we're sharing some of our favourite episodes from previous series. This week, it's the amazing stand-up, author, actor and all around inspiration Sara Pascoe! Sara is one of the most heralded comedians working today and the immensely talented author of the books Animal, Sex Power Money and the novel Weirdo. We talked to her about reading habits during quarantine (the episode was recorded during lockdown), big lies involving hamsters, unspeakable acts committed against libraries and the saddest book she has ever read.

While we take a little break, we're sharing just a few of our favourite ever episodes from the archives. This week we're with the author who has probably been discussed on the show more than any other and one of our favourite writers of all time - the legendary Marian Keyes! Marian is one of the most successful Irish novelists of all time, selling over 30 million books in 33 different languages. When we chatted to Marian, she was about to release the brilliant, chart-topping Grown Ups. Since then we've seen a sequel to Rachel's Holiday, Again Rachel and her latest My Favourite Mistake. We talked to Marian about the pleasures of reading, the joys of Jilly Cooper, why she's craving fictional glamour and struggling with Jane Austen. And as this episode was released on the week Daisy's novel Insatiable was launched, there's a bonus, exclusive (and steamy!) clip from the audiobook.

This week, we are delving back into the archive to revisit our series 5 trip to America in the company of the incredible Taylor Jenkins Reid! When we met Taylor in 2019, Daisy Jones and the Six had just been released. It went on to be a global smash with a recent, lauded Amazon adaptation and in this episode Taylor discusses many of the books that inspired the novel. Her other books, including The 7 Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Malibu Rising and Carrie Soto is Back, have all been celebrated best-sellers. We met Taylor in West Hollywood, LA and the delightful confines of the great Book Soup bookstore and talked to her about rock memoirs, Bridget Jones, gift giving, influential reads and the delights of seeing your own book in the book shop.
