What a Pair! Linwood Barclay & Terry Fallis

What a Pair! Linwood Barclay & Terry Fallis

Hosted by Jim Brown

Seriously. Is there anyone (anyone?!) that wouldn’t show up a little late to the office for one life-affirming hour listening to these two pals crack wise? They are both masters of their respective domains – respectively, suspense and satire – and on top of their games. Linwood Barclay even blurbed Terry Fallis’s latest hit, A New Season: “Fallis writes from another time, when Wodehouse and Leacock and Twain roamed the earth. May he never become extinct.” Here’s a first question when we get to the audience Q&A after the conversation: ask Fallis to blurb Barclay’s latest bestseller, The Lie Maker, on the spot!
