So if you're worried, skip past those first ten minutes and you should be OK. It's not all pandemic chat though - mainly Benjamin describes fascinatingly how managed to make the transition from angry young criminal to internationally celebrated writer.</p><p>Thanks to Séamus Murphy-Mitchell for production support and to Anneka Myson for additional editing.&nbsp;</p><p>Podcast artwork by Helen Green <a href=\"https://helengreenillustration.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://helengreenillustration.com/</a></p><p><strong>RELATED LINKS</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.samaritans.org/branches/norwich/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>SAMARITANS NORWICH</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://printclublondon.com/featured/choose-love-auction-2020/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>CHOOSE LOVE AUCTION</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://choose.love/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>CHOOSE LOVE - HELP REFUGEES ON LINE STORE</strong></a></p><p><strong>BENJAMIN LINKS</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://benjaminzephaniah.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH'S WEBSITE</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_PRL1Z_Li4\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH - DIS POLICEMAN (KEEPS ON KICKING ME TO DEATH)</strong> </a>(1982, YOUTUBE)</p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jwj6njL3Pak&amp;list=PL31527428D1DC7037&amp;index=8&amp;t=0s\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH (WITH THE WAILERS) - FREE SOUTH AFRICA (TUFF GONG)</strong> </a>(1982, YOUTUBE)</p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zowOkv0Cuhk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH ON WINDRUSH, ANARCHISM AND HIS TIME IN NORTH KOREA </strong></a>(C4 NEWS, 2018, YOUTUBE)</p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXDxMH2EUTY\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>ON MODERN RACISM</strong></a><strong> </strong>(2011, BBC NEWSNIGHT, YOUTUBE)</p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2TiNi9w-XE\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BENJAMIN ZEPHANIAH RECITES HIS POEM MONEY</strong> </a>(1991, YOUTBE)</p><p><a href=\"https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/cops-who-struck-young-dad-14897058\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>WEST MIDLANDS POLICE PAY COMPENSATION FOR KILLING OF MIKEY POWELL (2003)</strong></a> (2018, BIRMINGHAM LIVE WEBSITE)</p><p><strong>ADAM AND JOE LINKS</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5y6yY33LSo\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>ADAM AND JOE - FRIENDS LIKE THESE, NME</strong> </a>(2020, YOUTUBE)</p><p><a href=\"https://www.wowpresentsplus.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>THE ADAM AND JOE SHOW ON WOW PRESENTS PLUS </strong></a>(SIGN UP TO STREAM ALL 4 SERIES)&nbsp;</p><p><a href=\"Adam-buxton.co.uk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>ADAM BUXTON WEBSITE</strong></a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.waterstones.com/book/ramble-book/adam-buxton/9780008293345\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>ADAM BUXTON'S RAMBLE BOOK (HARDBACK)</strong></a><strong> </strong>(WATERSTONES)</p><p><a href=\"https://www.audible.co.uk/ep/title?asin=0008293368&amp;source_code=M2M30DFT1BkSH101514006S&amp;&amp;ipRedirectOverride=true\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>ADAM BUXTON'S RAMBLE BOOK (AUDIOBOOK) </strong></a>(2020, AUDIBLE)</p>","author_name":"ADAM BUXTON"}
