AUDIOBOOKS
I really got into audiobooks when my kids were babies and I’d take them out for long walks in their buggies. When I started recording them myself I realised how fun it was to play all these different characters, or simply get to read interesting books I’d probably never get round to otherwise!
I’ve narrated all sorts of things – stories about zombies, being lost in space, murderous love triangles, and non fiction titles about tax, football and early surgical procedures! Most of my audiobooks have pretty good reviews on Audible! I was a narrator on the Audie finalist book “The Guest List”!
You can listen to some clips below, and find most of these books on Audible from which here are some reviews (sorry, but you’ve got to sell yourself these days)
What is the truth about Britain’s finances?
Paul Johnson and the enormously respected Institute for Fiscal Studies aim to hold Government to account – without which politicians will get away with their half-truths, elisions and dubious claims.
This is a forensic examination – by the man best placed to do so – of the way the state raises and spends £1 trillion of our money every year. To follow the money. To provide an explanation, of where that money comes from and where it goes to, how that has changed and how it needs to change.
Johnson looks at what happened following the financial crisis of 2008-09 and the austerity years that followed. He examines the way that the government tackled the economy during Covid – when the UK budget shot up to over a trillion for the first time – and he analyses prospects for our future as we grapple with looming recession and the cost of living crisis.
