The Weight of the World with Andrew Shanahan

Andrew "Shan" Shanahan knows about the weight of the world we all feel and he's written a cracking good book about it. His first novel Before and After is the story of a 601 lb. man who is trapped inside his home as a pandemic rages outside. Shanahan has been a journalist for over two decades, writing for some of the biggest newspapers in the world. He founded an organization in 2014 called MAN v FAT which has since helped over four million men worldwide to lose weight and get healthy. When he stepped back from MAN v FAT, he returned to his first love: writing. Alex chats with Shan about the book, the state of the world, his take on writing, and his acclaimed work to help overweight men.  Get the book: http://www.helpbiscuits.com/ Connect with Shan: https://helloshan.co.uk/ *** Get Alex's new book THE PODCAST OPTION.
