In Chris's own words:

"It was a blast to talk to Tom and Gemma and I hope that comes through when you listen to the latest podcast. They both really know their stuff, but what is great is that they are skilled interviewers, letting me ramble not too far off the point but enough to make it fun and interesting. If people would like to know more about my work or even just get in touch because they like what they hear, I'm Twitter literate (Twitterlate?), Google Plussed and have a blog at http://chrisstanleyis.blogspot.com, where new and archive content is posted regularly."

During the podcast we talked about two pieces of work Chris had recorded for us, The North Korea Supporter's Club and a sample chapter from The Sad Club.
