David Ginn was a pleasure to interview and a true gentleman.
His generosity and willingness to share his wealth of information is truly inspirational and for those who listen, there is much wisdom in this episode.

 

David let slip that he has a new book in the pipeline where he will be compiling a lifetime of unpublished routines and material. I will be putting my name at the top of the list.
