The Old Fools

Auteur(s): Giddy Goat Productions Ltd
  • Résumé

  • Ian Martin (writer: Veep), David Quantick (also writer: Veep) and guests. Sort of topical, cultural rants and conversation from the point of view of older people who still give a damn about the world around them. The inside pages of the broadsheets: Entertainment, broadcasting, nature, science, obituaries, lifestyle, environment, business, fashion, health. If it's got their goat, you'll know about it.

  • Season two - THE HIGHLIGHTS
    Apr 7 2025

    People say to me, Steve - you're the producer of the Old Fools Podcast, is it even possible to pick highligts from what is already 100% audio gold?

    The answer is ... yes. Except I suspect I'll have upset someone by leaving one bit or another out of this.

    Money cannot buy this kind of entertainment. Which is fitting as we don't make any money from it.

    Here is a selection of funny bits from a very funny show. Ian and David are joined by a host of fantastic female co-hosts. If this is your first exposure to the show ... scroll back and find the full episodes. You won't regret it.

    Old Fools is now on a break for a few weeks. Enjoying the $23 we made in advertising revenue. Trebles all round.

  • 2.8 Liz Buckley! Chessington! Easter Trees! Americans Eating mustard! Paul McCartney?
    Mar 25 2025

    Week 8 of this season and we're still here. This week joined by Liz Buckley - head of A&R at super-cool Ace Records. This week Ian Martin, David Quantick and Liz bring Easter Trees, Americans eating mustard, a bomb disposal robot, "Adolescence" and Chessington World of Adventure under the microscope. And some discussion on whether or not Paul McCartney is a wanker (spoiler alert: he's not).

    Please subscribe to The Old Fools wherever you get your podcasts. And tell a pal. Leave a review or comment. You know, all the usual slightly desperate requests.

    The Old Fools is a Giddy Goat production. Because somebody has to be reponsible.
