  • I Think I Just Really Hate Peter Mandelson
    Dec 12 2025

    How about you?

    But tbh most of the podcast is about Flat Pack Furniture and Christmas Trees and similar toothless observational comedy, gumming fruitlessly on the playpen bars of satire.

    I was thinking about Peter Mandelson, though, and I was thinking during the podcast how satisfying it would be, if ever I met him, to be able to say to him, 'you're a used condom, filled with dog shit'. That's pretty harsh, so I didn't say it in the podcast. But I keep coming back to it, because it's such a specific, and vivid, and revolting image, that it would stay with him, forever.

    He's been behind so many big, and grotesquely avaricious decisions taken on the taxpayers' behalf.

    But, really, don't take these episode notes as being representative of the podcast. It's quite jolly, really. Oh, and Flipping Eckhart Tolle is back xx

  • **SPECIAL EP FOR CHOIR SINGERS ONLY**
    Dec 8 2025

    Hello! This is not a normal episode, but instructions and guide tracks for anyone who would like to sing on the podcast's Christmas song. It's going to be glorious - Harry the Piano has arranged it and played bassoonPIANO I MEANT TO SAY PIANO and my extraordinarily talented brother Joe has done a vocal arrangement which I have massacred on his behalf. Here is a folder containing the guide scores and the guide mp3 for each part, or you can listen to the podcast. Please can you send me your recordings by (and including) Dec 15th and I will assemble them into something.

    Ahhh, the Trainline. I love it, you love it, we could conjugate all night over that one.

    Some of your RFK poetry has been 'trickling in' *vomits everywhere* - thank you for that. I think.

    No progress on the singing front, but we may have an emergency episode before next week.
