David Baddiel (Part One)

Walking The Dog with Emily Dean

Join Emily and Ray to take a walk on Hampstead Heath with the legendary comedian and friend of the podcast, David Baddiel.

David is a huge cat lover - he’s had over 20 cats in his life. However, we popped down the road to see Frank Skinner who kindly lent us his dog Poppy for our walk. Frank seemed very relaxed with the idea of us taking Poppy out - but David wasn’t so sure...

We chat about David’s childhood dog Dingle, his origin story with cats in the Baddiel household, his mum’s affair with a golf memorabilia salesman and David's unconventional birthday party invitation.

David’s new memoir My Family is out on Thursday 4th July. You can buy your copy here!

A Muslim & A Jew Go There - hosted by David Baddiel and Sayeeda Warsi - is available on all podcast platforms.

Listen to Emily and Ray's last walk with David from January 2018 here!
