Richard is honoured to be joined by CJ, mostly known for his awesome podcast 'Twin Humanities', however recent events have drawn him back into the world of music, which is so important to him, and so we chat everything from where his love started to the release of his new single. "Give Me The Name of The Puppeteer" which you can hear part of at the end of the episode and I ask you to jump on to Amazon and buy it from there.
