Today's guest is Elizabeth Day, once again. I know nobody is complaining about that, as her prior episode on
Slo Mo is one of
the most downloaded of all time. And I absolutely adore this woman and she's one of my favorite people in the world. Like last time, we recorded this on Instagram Live, so please forgive any audio issues.
As many of you know, I appeared on Elizabeth's podcast,
How to Fail, earlier in 2020, and the episode was a massive hit. Since that time, she and I have become close friends, and I truly treasure our friendship. Today, we're talking about her new book,
Magpie, which is a must read, and running a special promo for those who pre-order it (see below).
Elizabeth is an author, journalist and broadcaster. Her memoir,
How To Fail: Everything I’ve Ever Learned From Things Going Wrong is a Sunday Times top 5 bestseller and has been described as ‘life-changing’ by critics. Her chart-topping podcast,
How To Fail With Elizabeth Day, is a celebration of the things that haven't gone right and has been nominated for two British Podcast Awards. Her seventh and latest book is
Magpie, available September 2, 2021.
If you
pre-order the book and send a screenshot of the order confirmation to win@mogawdat.com, you will enter a sweepstakes to win a signed copy of my books. By the way, this same promotion applies to my new book,
Scary Smart, too, releasing September 30, 2021, but if you can only buy one, I'm totally fine if you go with
Magpie because when Elizabeth is happy, I am happy.
