Interview with Russell Peters 5 Oct 2006 - Bigger, Longer, Uncut

Hi Russell Peters fans

I interviewed RP at the Oriental Hotel when he came down to Singapore recently to give five performances. This was in my capacity as a broadcast journalist for 938 Live. The interview was aired about a week ago, with cuts and edits since the feature was only 10 mins long. Here then, for your listening pleasure, is the full, raw version of my interview with him, with all the (very funny) stuff you can't put on air.

I found him to be confident, eloquent, curious and of course, very funny. I went to his last performance here too, and he played to a very, very appreciative audience. Must admit though, I think he's been funnier. Gave him the Coxford Singlish Dictionary to help with all his questions on Singlish. Hopefully we'll hear some Singlish material the next time he comes! Neway, hope you all enjoy the interview. Be glad to hear any feedback you all might have. Please feel free to spread the word too!

Gonna be speaking with (he doesn't particularly like the term!) Indiana Jones himself, Robert Young Pelton. Never heard of him? Check out his book, The World's Most Dangerous Places. Better yet, go to his website: www.comebackalive.com
