'S' is for... 'Simon Templar (aka 'The Saint')' [Episode 104]

Joining me to talk about this remarkable series of novels is British author Roland Hulme, described in his Amazon biography as "a digital Don Draper with a Hemingway complex - one of the world's foremost experts on social media and interactive marketing". Roland was born in the UK, but is currently living and working across the Atlantic in the USA. You can find him on Instagram and Youtube.I last had him on the podcast last to talk about Lady Chatterley's Lover, so I am delighted to draw on his literary expertise once again!Roland is the author of the Knuckleheads Motorcycle Club books, 'High Point', and also the Adventure Eddie series. He is a successful romance / adventure novelist, and here gives me his unique take on the works of Leslie Charteris, and the 1960s TV show starring Roger Moore that was inspired by them. He explains what makes the books so special, which one to start with (The Saint in New York), and why.  I hope you enjoy our discussion.

What is 'British-ness'? This podcast explores all aspects of British culture from the perspective of an Englishman previously based in China and Turkey. Perhaps you know Thomas already from Instagram's @FlemingNeverDies or @JamesBond_Turkiye , both centered on Ian Fleming's classic creation, James Bond, 007. Here, we can see a wider background of where our British hero sits.
