Thrift Shop Biography

Alan Sugar - Entrepreneur Extraordinaire

Mar 9, 2023

Lord Alan of Sugar has been a-wheelin' and a-dealin' ever since he was a little chirpy Cockney chappy.  His remarkable rise is full of surprises, wait until you find out what he did with a dustbin lid! His book is a proper satisfying rags-to-riches tale about a man who started with nothing but a hardcore work ethic and a belief that he could achieve anything - even happily run a football team with Terry Vegetables (okay maybe that went a bit wrong) . Sir Lord Alan of Sugar's story is way more interesting than you might think. We loved it!

Welcome to our podcast where we discuss and deliberate over memoirs and biographies found in thrift shops. This is a great way to do things as we are not choosing who to read about. We may not be fans of the person, we may never have heard of the person and we never know who we are going to find next...

There are only 2 rules to this podcast. The book has to be found in a thrift shop and we are not allowed to talk about the book until we press record, which is sometimes agonising.

We have lots of episodes coming up so if you find yourself enjoying our podcast, please be sure to subscribe to be among the first to hear about each episode.
