Emer McLysaght, one half of the Oh My God What A Complete Aisling books and our fifth ever guest returns to talk to us about the Adrian Mole series. Emer was obsessed with all of the Adrian Mole books as a youngster, Alan read and loved the first one as a child but then got distracted by Terry Pratchett and never returned, and Andrea read The Secret Diary Of for the first time for this episode so we’re really covering what we in the Juvenalia business call  “The Experience Gamut”

Emer is @EmerTheScreamer. She co-writes the hugely popular Aisling books with Sarah Breen, you’ve probably read them but if you haven’t you should; especially if you loved Adrian Mole.

Alan is @alan_maguire. Juvenalia is his main thing right now.

Andrea is not on social media right now because she’s stronger than us but you can find her on her podcasts My Favourite Album With Andrea Cleary and The Nialler9 Podcast.
