In this episode I read out one of my own stories, You've Been Popped. It concerns a day out on a wet gritstone crag, an awkward roof crack, a mysterious American climber and a huge cam.
I’m releasing Tommy Caldwell – not the way a Kyrgyz rebel might release Tommy Caldwell, but in a podcast kinda way. This was recorded at this year’s Kendal Film Festival where I lured him into a small art room and locked the door.
As a start I have just read out one of my own stories called The Dimmest Glimmer, a story about the fears of youth, set in a tumbledown climbers’ hut at the edges of Fair Head, the big, dark crag in Northern Ireland.
