James O'Brien Vs Piers Morgan has to be one of my favourite Full Disclosure episodes yet. Well worth a watch on YouTube.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Busier lifestyles no longer give us time to get lost in books. I heard the other day how somebody felt guilty about the thought of doing absolutely nothing on a bank holiday.
