I wish I had the confidence of guys sliding into DMs asking for feet pics.
I can't even bring myself to ask for someone to guest on my podcast.

Very lucky to perform some Jane Austen for her 250th birthday. It's the only way anyone was every going to cast me as Mr Darcy.
I read Captain Wentworth's letter from Persuasion and I distinctly saw tears in the audience.

I personally like quite a lot of Back and Forth though I agree that "Sniff my skids" is puerile.
I adore the Shakespeare scene, it always makes me laugh, but I think Blackadder was a bit unfair about Branagh's Hamlet (The only masterpiece to see Ken Dodd out acted by a skull in the same role).
In our latest episode, we are joined by an old friend of the podcast, Tyler Adams of @goonpod.bsky.social, to talk about Blackadder: Back & Forth, which was described by its main star as the most expensive and least satisfying half-hour in the canon.

Video podcasts exist solely as a marketing tool. A celebrity must be visible, they must have their face 'out there'. It must be cut up and turned into digestible (disposable) bites that must have captions because it won't be watched with sound anyway.

When all you want to do is make audio how do you find an audience when algorithms are almost entirely gained towards video and especially faces?

It's been a rough few weeks since losing my Dad but I think things have turned a corner. I'm finally able to bring you the last two episodes of this series of The Sound Of.
Will there be another? Not sure yet but this season is ready to binge.

I didn't know Variety did ragebait.
The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

Income inequality is higher in the US today than it was in 1774, even if you factor in slavery.

This episode's Scene Stealer is Miranda Richardson as the wetter-than-a-haddock’s-costume Amy Hardwood, a mysterious Northern beauty with a dark secret and an even darker hatred of squirrels.

Having an argument with my family feels like being followed into a revolving door and coming out second.
Even though I've ended up where I wanted to be when I started, I have the vague lingering feeling that I've done something wrong and they've still come out ahead.

I took up painting again to relax.
I'm never painting one of these bumpy bastards ever again. 90% of the time spent on it was taken up by fixing mistakes I'd made. One tiny slip with the brush and you have to go over another bit again. It was sisyphean.

If the UK is on the brink of civil war, as Musk claims, it follows that in 300 years time there will be be a new generation of civil war re-enactment societies.

My father died this week. Going through his possessions it was so easy to see the things I got from him that have made me the person I am. I'm going to miss him very much.

Britain is so far away from being a republic that should a King Ralph style tragedy occur they would just let Edward ascend to the throne and totally rewrite his narrative. You either have a hereditary monarchy or you don't and frankly they're not ready to be without that particular comfort blanket.
