B8 Rachel Parris in Conversation with Viv Groskop

Over the course of a year, award-winning comedian and presenter Rachel Parris asked members of her live audiences for advice. Her new book, Advice from Strangers explores the resulting random gems of wisdom in ways that are both hilarious and heart-breaking. She talks to writer and comedian Viv Groskop (How to Own the Room) about the peculiarly human habit of giving and asking for advice. They consider the essentials of living in the modern world; dealing with everything from Tampons to Tories and from #hashtags to Staying Hydrated.
