What's up? Welcome to my podcast feed. Thank you very much for joining us. A few things about the live dates.

The 3rd of November is sold out at Leicester Square Theatre. I'm in Beudely on the 16th October also sold out.

The gig on the 18th of November has had to be moved due to a TV commitment. I know it's unbelievable.

I'm going to be filming something and so I've had to move that one to the 1st of December.

If you bought a ticket already, that will be transferred to the new date.

Of course, if you can't make the new date.

That will be refunded. I'm aiming very high with the guests

and got a couple of requests and with some very exciting

people. It is worth booking ahead. Also, I'll back at the Les Square Theatre on the 23rd of February

16th of March and 20th of April. I'm also doing Leicester and Chelmsford in 2026. I'm not sure

tickets are available yet, but you can always check. And that's about it for gigs coming up thanks so

much for your support do become a badger if you want to give us a little bit of money and get ad-free

podcasts go fast astripe.com slash badges as well as many other benefits but tell you friends about the

podcast and I love you and thank you so much for the support that has led to me returning to the big time back on TV in 2026. What will it be?

I'm not allowed to say. It's very, very, very exciting is all I can tell you.

Hello, welcome to another Rahalasdhpur book club this week. We're looking at a book I read again on holiday.

It's Salt Wash by Andrew Michael Hurley, who has joined me now. Hello, Andrew. Hello, Richard. Do you like to be called Andrew Michael Hurley all the time? Yes, please. Andrew's fine. Why have you chosen to have your middle name? I like it. Is there a reason you've chosen to have your middle name? It's not a JK rolling situation.

No, I think there was another author called Andrew Hurley and there's another author called Michael Hurley. So I thought to differentiate myself. So you get both of their readerships. I get both of their readerships. I don't think there's much overlap, to be honest. There's also Graham Hurley, I think, he writes thrillers. Okay. Yeah, so just to differentiate myself from the other Hurley's out there. I like, well, it sounds, you know, I think there is something, it does sort of quite portentious and scary and having a three barrel name. It feels a bit more like in suit. It suits your work. Thank you. It seems to be a thing for horror writers. Andrew Hurley.

No.
