Journalist and novelist JULIA RAESIDE gives us the five tracks she will meet in Hell!
We're back! We're thrilled to be kicking off season three with Julia, whose excellent debut novel Don't Make Me Laugh has just come out in paperback. It's a hilarious post-#MeToo revenge thriller, set in the world of stand-up comedy. We talked about the culture of silence around the bad behaviour of successful men, and gossip can be a force for good. But we also found time to coin a new euphemism, discover the surprise answer to "who has the best selling Christmas album of all time?", and right at the end, Alex calls Julia 'Jessica', so that was a particular highlight.
You should go and buy Don't Make Me Laugh IMMEDIATELY. It's fun, and funny, and has something to say. And if you order it here, you'll be helping Hellish out.
