  1. STEWART LEE is an excellent comedian but also has an encyclopaedic knowledge of music. Or pretends to, at least.

    Here he is, cycling around East London, exploring record stores and taking you to historical sites around the area.

    "We've been cycling around East London for three and a half hours, and for any Americans watching, we haven't been shot in the face"

  2. (interesting 👍 one for community and arts radio enthusiasts - listened to half of this while shopping on Saturday night)

    Resonance FM: The Art of Listening
    Archive on 4

    Comedian and writer Stewart Lee explores the founding ideas and extraordinary archive of Resonance FM, the UK’s greatest radio art station.
    The summer of 1998 - a new guerrilla radio station, broadcast from an attic on London’s South Bank, with a tiny crew and an unsteady aerial, mixed improvised music, endless birdsong and angry pensioners demanding their rights with experimental comedy, polyglot children’s programming, circuit bending and the heady whiff of full broadcasting freedom.

    Nearly thirty years and several precarious office spaces later it is still broadcasting and now reaches the entire world – a beacon of brilliance and an ongoing work of radio art in its own right.

    Resonance platforms the unplatformed. Broadcasts the unbroadcastable. An audio outgrowth of a radical creative underground, it also pioneered the idea of community radio in the UK as a space where outside voices could find a platform - from devotees of Congolese dance music to Calling All Pensioners, where a reformed bank robber yelled angrily about senior citizen rights. From the beginning it’s been committed to the idea of what its founders called ‘radical hospitality’ – that anyone with a good idea can have a spot. Resonance is an ongoing invitation.

    Having fronted several shows for the station over the years, Stewart meets Resonance broadcasters past and present, its founders and current visionaries; its constituency of artists, musicians and comedians; its brilliant volunteers and engineers, and dives into the station’s extraordinary archive.

    That's a Great Question (with Stewart Lee in Laugharne)
    Strong Message Here

    Stewart Lee joins Armando at the Millennium Hall in Laugharne.

    Is AI too sycophantic? Should we worry about how military-grade AI is being sold in start-up jargon? Let's ask the best AI there is, Armando Iannucci.

    In another episode in front of an audience, Armando and Stewart treat us to a dramatic reading of a Chat GPT interaction. We also hear whether the Metaverse is an unwelcome template for AI companies, and why Stewart admires the boffins who make sex robots.

  7. Actors who have played the title role in "Jerry Springer: The Opera" include Terence Mann (Critters 1, 2, 3 & perennial #Monsterdon also-ran 4), David Soul (Starsky & Hutch) and Harvey Keitel!

  8. A new YouTube channel by the director of Brass Eye (among other gems), the King Rocker film, and (I think) Matt Berry's music videos. It should be worth keeping an eye on.

    It's got unseen Brass Eye and Snuff Box outtakes already alongside some awesome test trade transmissions that are folk art masterpieces.
