Lauren Pattison (Book Plug, Ep 4)

On this week’s episode of Book Plug, Mikey’s joined by the brilliant Lauren Pattison for a wild ride through the dark heart of Australia, the twisted turns of thriller novels and misery lit, and plenty of chaos along the way. Follow Mikey on insta for more! @mikeycrumpbab

Brennan Reece (Book Plug, Ep 3)

This week Mikey’s joined by the hilarious Brennan Reece — or as he’s now officially known, Aunty Brenda. They dive from Steve Martin’s brilliance to The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, detour into death anxiety, and somehow end up talking about getting ID’d just to watch porn. It’s chaotic, warm, and unexpectedly deep — exactly how Aunty Brenda likes it.

Phil Ellis - Full Yellow Jacket (Book Plug, Ep 2)

Phil Ellis turns up late, gets roasted for dating my sister, and somehow still finds time to play Sniff My Book. We also chat A Confederacy of Dunces! He’s still wearing that bastard coat an’ all 😁

Pierre Novellie - Terry Pratchett, Autism and Uncle Ben’s Bridge (Book Plug, Ep 1)

Welcome to the very first episode of Book Plug — the podcast where guests plug the books that shocked them, shaped them, or scarred them for life. This week I’m joined by comedian and author Pierre Novellie. We dive into autism, comedy, Discworld, spy thrillers, and somehow… Uncle Ben’s Bridge in the Black Country. And Pierre blesses me with a diagnosis. It’s funny, heartfelt, and a little bit chaotic — exactly what Book Plug is all about.
