Ep 156: Ray Shipley and pip adam talk about a tarot deck and ’My Body is a Horror Film’

Ray Shipley has done many very cool things: stand-up comedy, slam poetry, book-selling, librarianship. Ray's latest awesome thing is a book My Body is a Horror Film: Written, Directed, Produced by and Starring Ray Shipley.

It's such a great book and it was launched with two other amazing books.
