Hello listeners of the off menu podcast. It is Ed Gamble here from the off menu podcast.

I have a very exciting announcement. I have written my first ever book. I am absolutely

I am. What a greedy little boy I was. What a greedy adult I am. I think it's very funny.

I'm very proud of it. The book is called Glutton, the multicore's life of a very greedy boy.

And it's coming out this October, but it is available to pre-order now, wherever you

available from Waterstones. But go and pre-order your copy of Glutton, the multicore's life

of the very greedy boy now. Please.

Because I think when you talk to people about food, you find out more about their lives.

Absolutely. Definitely do. And also when you own a restaurant because you're a genie,

you learn more about people's lives. And there's extra layers of confusion that James

brings to the pot. I think I like to, I bring a good chat, fun conversation topics, a
