About this episode
This week Emily and Ray met the brilliant comedian Phil Wang for a stroll round Peckham Rye Park!
Phil is a former dog-hater, but he and Raymond got on very well. Phil even offered to carry Ray and gave him a whole new perspective on the world.
After being born in the same hospital as Robbie Williams - Phil spent what he describes as a ‘nice but boring’ childhood growing up in Malaysia, before moving back to the UK for school and university. Phil tells us about how he embraces otherness and being an escapist - and he reveals why he is very cautious about long grass.
Phil’s absolutely hilarious new special Wang In There, Baby! is available on Netflix now
