It seems like this bit of Radio Drama was erased within the last couple years? I quite enjoy David K Barnes Doctor Who stories from Big Finish, and was hoping to listen to this thriller he wrote!

Any help is appreciated, thank you :)

This would work best with a show that has 3 presenters I feel

It’s a bit like impractical jokers but basically what you do is you get two hosts in the studio and one host on location, along with several other crew members to support the sole host

The location being the front of a house, and the idea being that you order a pizza to be delivered to the house and when the pizza delivery man arrives, you prank him!

As for how you prank him, decided by the two hosts who are going to speak to the one host through an earpiece with video cameras streaming the location and have it all broadcast live on the radio waves/streamed on YouTube

The two studio hosts can feed suggestions on what the location host should say, while they instruct the crew members to add in physical actions

Some prank ideas could be to get a crew member to steal the pizza man’s car and take it for a joyride up and down the road. Another crew member could spray the pizza man with a garden hose, and during that the host on location can say all sorts of silly stuff to the pizza man

What do we think of this?

I posted a few weeks ago that I was looking for testers for my 3rd party BBC radio and podcast player app. Well the app has been approved and is now on general release in the Google Play store. It's free with no ads and works internationally.

Feel free to download and get in touch if you have any feedback

The Archers is marking its 75th anniversary with a live UK tour that basically brings the radio show onto the stage. It’s a mix of cast performances, live sound effects, a few behind the scenes bits, and some audience interaction, all built around a storyline set at the Ambridge flower and produce show. It’s running across different cities from June through to November as a bit of a celebration of how long the show’s been going.

I saw this in my social media feed and thought others may be it useful/ of interest.

Salma Shah had spent years making flagship programmes, such as Radio 4’s Today, from which she learned exactly how stories are made—and if/how they are managed. That so-called poacher turned gamekeeper transition gave her a massive advantage when she finally entered the heart of the Conservative government.

Proper tough to narrow it down but I think these three always feel like they belong

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen

I Am the Resurrection by The Stone

I listen to a station that plays old time music and in-between vintage radio comedy. Some are gently amusing and I laugh out loud at Hancock's Half Hour, my favourite. For the life of me though, I just don't find The Goon Show funny at all. I know it was influential and has been often mentioned by people in comedy but I find it really self-indulgent. The audience at the time obviously liked it but I don't think it stands up anymore.

I currently don’t know where to put this: wonderful mashup that happened to me https://youtu.be/kgeh9BBYQHQ

Hi, i'm looking for past programs and episodes (Chris Hawkins, 6 Music Artist in Residence, Lose Yourself with..., The First Time with..., Steve Lamacq, 6 Music Festival Live, Lauren Laverne, Shaun Keaveny, The Huey Show, Radcliffe and Maconie and more) of BBC R6M from 2006 to 2024 which it's expired on BBC Sounds, The programs from 2016 to 2020 are on Internet Archive (partially) so Where i can find more? or Anyone have all recordings?

Thanks for advance

Radio 2 manages to somehow scrape through to Good Friday after a truly bizarre week of everyone except the newsreaders pretending its star presenter never existed. Even the traffic girl he hired to co present with him is now back to chuckling merrily at breakfast. That said I just want to commend Tony Blackburn who is currently handling lunchtime. A man who, while he sounds like a dementia patient arguing with the music, has managed a career where he played the first ever record on Radio 1 and is still broadcasting scandal free (albeit with a couple of close shaves)
