In this epsiode I interviewed Michael Holden, an exceptional writer who started his career at Loaded magazine in 1994. He ended up in a psychiatric hospital during that time, which we discuss. After that he wrote for The Guardian Guide before becoming a Hollywood writer. Then he ended up back living with his elderly parents, caring for them.

The result was a book called The Reluctant Carer, which was published in 2022. What is peculiar about it is he published it anonymously. We talk about the pros and cons of that, and why he has decided to finally put his name to it.

You can buy Michael’s book here at Bookshop. 

His original article from The Guardian in 2019, which we discuss, is here.

He recommended Going Mad in Hollywood by David Sherwin, which is at Waterstones.

And you can buy my books here at Bookshop.

Thank you for listening.
