Chris Williamson has started a new podcast format – Rabbit Hole – and the guests in this one are:

• Jimmy Carr
• George Mack – a writer, marketer, and entrepreneur.
• Harry Dry – a marketer, copywriter and writer

I’m assuming this was recorded on July 13^th judging by the suit Chris has on and Jimmy’s heavy touring schedule (see images in this post).

Jimmy was in Texas, at the time, to record this solo Modern Wisdom episode (here).
