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.

    Feb 17 2025

    Advetisments are driving Ian even closer to the edge than most things. David has put himself in the Prime Minister's shoes and ths week's co-host, Lisa Holdsworth has been thinking about wild pigs.

    Another funny romp through the slightly strange brains of Ian Martin, David Quantick - comedy writers with actiual prizes to their names - and Leeds's brilliant screenwriter or note: Lisa Holdsworth. And for one week only: producer Steve says something funny.

  • 2.2 Jenny Landreth! Jazz! Boomerangst! The Archbishop of Canterbury! Both Will Smiths!
    Feb 10 2025

    Another slice of comic conversation from some older people who still give a damn about the world. Have you heard of the film "Birdbox"? Doesn't matter - Ian has. What do you think of jazz? Do you know what Boomerangst is? Would you like to hear a song about it? And what about Saoirse Ronan for the vacant post of Archbishop of Canterbury?

    This week's episode will take you on a journey of comic discovery that you didn't know you wanted to take and may never want to come home from.

    Joining Ian Martin and David Quantick on a return visit is writer and script editor, Jenny Landreth. We think she's ace.

    Guaranteed not vulgar.
