Charlie Chaplin

Thrift Shop Biography

From child of poverty to film industry pioneer. This week we blow the dust off the autobiography of Charlie Chaplin and go on an epic journey through Victorian London, Vaudeville, Silent Movies and the birth of Hollywood. It's a fascinating story of a man who was celebrated and castigated. One of our favourites!
Welcome to our podcast where we discuss and deliberate over memoirs and biographies found in thrift shops. This is a great way to do things as we are not choosing who to read about. We may not be fans of the person, we may never have heard of the person and we never know who we are going to find next...
There are only 2 rules to this podcast. The book has to be found in a thrift shop and we are not allowed to talk about the book until we press record, which is sometimes agonising.
We have lots of episodes coming up so if you find yourself enjoying our podcast, please be sure to subscribe to be among the first to hear about each episode.
THANK YOU FOR LISTENING
