GBA 144 Richard #2

Summary: In GBA 144 we get even better acquainted with Richard. I interrogate him about his youthful mistakes and he pushes me to ask him all the questions on my list. We cover rat welfare, changes in approach, growing up, the relationships of artists and audiences, changes in political thinking and more. This is the second conversation that I have had with him and it starts the Kingdom season: over the next two weeks I will air conversations with Richard's father and brother.
