My friend and Stalking Time For The Moonboys podcast partner @timhincks has noticed that this looks like a 70s horror film where an unhappy child haunts the main character.
I wonder if they’ll ever get in an interior designer at Buckingham Palace who doesn’t think it’s 1953.
A shot of myself, Frank and the wonderful @emilyrebeccadean just before we recorded an episode of her great Walking The Dog podcast (I can’t provide a link but y’know, it’s out there) which I’m mainly posting because of the way in which Frank’s dog Poppy is looking at me with such enormous love.
This week’s Walking the Dog guest is the utterly wonderful @therealbaddiel who doesn’t have a dog, but he does have a very friendly neighbour called Frank Skinner who generously loaned him his beautiful Cavapoo Poppy for our walk. Even though David often tells me he doesn’t really ‘see the point’ in walking, he is an absolutely brilliant person to go for a walk with, because he’s so endlessly funny, endlessly smart and endlessly fascinating. Despite all this he still struggled to master the basics of how a dog lead works, which in many ways sums up why I adore him so much.. He’s also just published an unputdownable memoir called My Family inspired by his hugely successful West End show – it’s a painfully honest, stomach clutchingly funny insight into the comically surreal goings on in the Baddiel household and I LOVED it, so I strongly urge you to read it immediately. Really hope you enjoy my walk with David, listen to part 1 now wherever you get your pods 🐶🎧

My thanks to @therealbaddiel and @sayeedawarsi for the chat on the @amuslimandajewgothere podcast. We talked about the personal toll of my in-laws being trapped in Gaza, football, community tensions…and of course politics! You can listen here: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/a-m…

Last episode of first season of A Muslim And A Jew Go There: Election Special! Link in bio. I think. Can’t remember. But otherwise, where you get your podcasts.
Thanks to @inewsdotid for this review, and for the, um, headline.
I remember when I went to an ante-natal class asking them if they had any advice on not just the birth but the next 18 years. Similarly Joe Biden needs to be asked not just if he is too old and fragile to defeat Trump but whether getting even more old and fragile over the next five years might be an issue in RUNNING AMERICA.
Me tearing up on @janeandfi’s show whilst talking about My Family: The Memoir. Sometimes that happens when you’re talking about your parents after they’ve gone. You think you’re just travelling on a conversational path and suddenly the sadness hits you like an unexpected wall.
I’ve always said – no honestly – that the Daily Telegraph was a fine paper.
Me talking about what My Family: The Memoir is.
I’m the one in the foreground, btw.
I think something else is meant to happening today, can’t remember what, but hey, also this is published.
This is happening @jw3london. The interviewer is likely to be my brother @ivorbaddiel. Which will be fun. He may tear me apart for writing it.
