Pt 1: Adam Kay in the Oxfordshire countryside

This week, Dr Alex is joined by author, comedian and ex-Obs and Gynae registrar Adam Kay.

Adam became a well known author after he released his utterly hilarious and candid book, This Is Going To Hurt.

In part one of this conversation, you’ll hear Dr Alex and Adam discussing his decision to leave London, how he wrote his painfully funny (and sometimes just painful) books, and how he has seen the pandemic impact our healthcare system.

You can pick up a copy of Dr Alex’s new book A Better Day here.
