RHLSTP Book Club 70 - Chapters - Richard is joined by a man who Steve Coogan finds funny, but doesn’t know why, to talk about his latest anthology of poetry - Chapters. Richard expresses his distrust of poetry and fails to remember any of the stuff he’s read and Tim explains why he self-publishes, his collaboration with designer Emily Juniper and how much truth and beauty there is in his work. He reads a couple of poems, explains why the book has this title it has and reveals if he’s ever had a sporting dream or not. Plus a new episode of timkey the monkey and chat about making films, cancer and why he is not as respected a figure (by Rich at least) as Davina McCall.
