The Ed Talk

Ed Reardon's WeekSeries 13
Episode 2 of 6

Ed bumps into Geoff, an entrepreneur who commissions Ed with writing his self-help book. Stars Christopher Douglas. From 2019.

Ed Reardon, author, pipe smoker, consummate fare-dodger and master of the abusive email, attempts to survive in a world where the media seems to be run by idiots and lying charlatans.

Ed bumps into Geoff Daytona - a rich successful entrepreneur and motivational speaker Ed was at school with. Geoff commissions Ed with writing his self-help book – The Geoff Daytona Method. Surely this latest enterprise will pay the big bucks - keeping Ed in Cab Sav and Elgar in pilchards?
