Richard Gadd talks to Nick Grimshaw about his new show Half Man, and the Very Specific Playlist he uses to get into character while playing Ruben Pallister.

Nick and Richard discuss creating and starring in the show, how he ended up acting one of the lead roles when he didn't intend to, his creative process, what it means to be a man, and how much music helps him with his craft. In his words, "I love to build a playlist that feels like the essence of a character's soul."
