17 DIC 2021 · It has been a MINUTE but we're back with...a final episode (*sobs quietly onto the keyboard*)! We've been radio silent because life has gotten in the way, so we wanted to go out with a final bang! We've had a great time chit chatting in your ears since 2018, and we wanted to say goodbye with a final (hilarious) interview we did back in June 2021, with acclaimed author Chibundu Onuzo discussing her latest novel Sankofa - taken from the famous Twi phrase about going back to get something you've forgotten. We thought it fit the bill for our final episode. So goodbye for now - go back and listen to our previous episodes, there's nothing wrong with doing that!
You can buy Sankofa here - https://uk.bookshop.org/books/sankofa-a-reese-witherspoon-book-club-pick-and-a-bbc-2-between-the-covers-book-club-pick/9780349013152
