Lots to get to on the What'cha Readin' Book Club today. First up (well, technically it'll be one of the last things to happen on the show), esteemed comedian/writer Mike Birbiglia joins us to answer your questions about his excellent new book, Sleepwalk With Me and Other Painfully True Stories! I am super stoked!
Secondly, December's upon us and this morning I'm giving away five copies of our next book, Barney's Version, by the late Mordecai Richler AND also five pairs of movie passes to the forthcoming film adaptation. If you or someone you know can get to Toronto on December 16th or Halifax, Ottawa, Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton, Halifax, Ottawa, Vancouver, or Victoria on January 5th to attend a screening, please stay tuned. I'll be asking questions on the show and the first people to answer them correctly on the blog, win!
And finally, next week I'll be playing the first two scenes from our Radio 3 Christmas Carol. We're very excited for you to hear this and I'll talk about it a bit on today's show.
Hey, did you win a copy of Barney's Version + a pair of passes to see the film adaptation? Well then, please e-mail vish_khanna [at] cbcradio3.com with "Vish's Version" in the subject line, and your blog moniker and shipping address in your message.
Did our focus on Mike Birbiglia and his book encourage you to check out more of his work? Any final thoughts on it? Looking forward to our December activity? Otherwise, what'cha readin'?
