Show Notes

[REBROADCAST FROM March 17, 2025] When comedian Phil Hanley hit the first grade, he started to realize that while his classmates were learning to read, he couldn't seem to make any progress. That was the start of a lifelong journey with dyslexia, which caused Hanley to struggle in school, only to find success as a male model and now as a comedian. Hanley discusses his memoir Spellbound: My Life as a Dyslexic Wordsmith.
