  • Les Gold, Welcome to So Money, My Friend
    Farnoosh Torabi: Les Gold, welcome to So Money, my friend. How are you? Les Gold: Real good. Thank you for having me on again. FT: My absolute pleasure. Congratulations on season 9 is it now of Hardcore Pawn? LG: It’s really been unbelievable that we’ve been so successful as a reality show Hardcore Pawn season 9. I can’t wait for them to pick us up and have season 10. FT: What so you think it is, what is your magic, what is your secret sauce? Because, there are so many shows that get cancelled before they even get to like the fifth episode. LG: Oh, you know, for us it’s the dynamics of the Gold family. You know, you have me as the father, Ashley and Seth trying to learn the business. You have the dynamics of my 50 employees and the thousand people that walk to the door each and every day. So, each one of those thousand people plus my employees, plus my family, the stories are sometimes unbelievable. FT: I interviewed you about a year ago. I flew to Detroit, came to your store, which by the way, folks, you have to visit. Okay, I know Detroit right now is going through some reparation but if you do make it there, it’s an amazing, amazing city and your store is a must stop. And, when I was there we talked a lot about how, you know obviously your store attracts a lot of people because of the show but in your business, you get to see it all.

  • Young, Gifted and Punk: My Mad Days with Rik Mayall June 18, 2014 6.03Am BST
    Young, gifted and punk: my mad days with Rik Mayall June 18, 2014 6.03am BST The untimely death of me old mucker Rik Mayall last week has prompted a plethora of obituaries in the press and on television and radio. However, as someone who “nearly” grew up with Rik at Manchester University in the mid- 1970s (we never quite made the leap to post-adolescence) his premature death has been a devastating personal blow – as it has, I’m sure, to all those who knew him. As the youngest of the 1975 intake – Rik was only 56 years old when he died – his passing not only uncomfortably reminds us all of our own mortality but has invoked the glorious memories of an age of creative experiment and glorious mayhem. As an undergraduate studying Drama at Manchester University, I first met Rik when both housed in the Manchester University Hall’s of Residence at Owen’s Park, Fallowfield. What united us from the off was our love of the absurd, the irreverent and the cheap burgers from the so-called Armpit – the nearby Canadian Charcoal Pit take-away. Also we both had a penchant for pulling faces, putting on silly voices and like many of our generation, quoting large sections of Monty Python sketches, which were seen as de rigeur for “coolness” in the mid- 1970s. He was a fascinating life-force, not least because he could stick the top of his ear into the hole. The living was easy at that time with generous student grants to ease the squalor of student life – or rather to propagate it.
