Omg yes

[@keelieinwonderland]

This story needs to be told, David would think it’s fake

[@jhogrute]

true... but i dont think she can lie thats the problem.. she is super honest

[@MagizardInternet]

@@jhogrute I don't think she even needs to. She's led such a life that it's actually not needed to tell a lie.

[@jhogrute]

@@MagizardInternet i agree.. but what i meant is all the cards wont be true stories from her life, in that case people will catch on its always true specially if she is a returning guest... so some cards will have lie stories to mix it up... and those will be hard for her, because she is super honest.. i dont think she can lie well (which i admire dont get me wrong) :))

Get her memoir, It’s great! It has a bunch of funny stories and it covers the more serious parts of her life as well. I recommend getting the audiobook because it is narrated by Miriam herself.

[@mchparity]

@@kyankasuri She also narrated The Bell by Iris Murdoch.

[@evelynwinters9395]

[@Isabella-nh5dm]

Ms. Margolyes has the absolute gift of being able to tell stories. You can't help but enjoy your time listening to her.

[@luminaryprism75]

Miriam just falls into these random encounters and adventures and always comes out with the most interesting possible version of the story that one could get. She is a world treasure.

[@ConstantChaos1]

I mean when you think about it she was legit an adult peer when he was a kid so it really was like a teacher telling you she was a drug dealer lol

[@genxer39]

Miriam should do an autobiography. She has some of the most interesting stories.

[@blpalv15]

That would be a must read, of course but hearing her tell the stories is better. Only if she does the audiobook!

[@williamduce8806]

She's just had one come out
