Turns out I did it on page six, but spelt it wrong.

Hey Riddle Riddle have a (very untypical episode for them) chat with Ross Kimball (actor) about Jury Duty, if you want to cross some streams. "*Unlocked* Review Crew #44: Jury Duty w/Ross Kimball"

I've started a podcast and I'd love you all to listen to it... I'm ultra critical of these things and am already looking at ways of improving it so please, feel free to let me know what you think and of course, if you'd like to give it a positive review... I'd be forever in your debt!

Look, much love and all, but I couldn’t get past the first three minutes unfortunately. It all sounded a little bit like Capital FM radio DJs filling time. I really hated the name thing instantly. Is that how you converse in real life cause it kinda needed to be more real life for me to drift into listening in to a casual conversation between pals. Of course, if that’s how you normally have a conversation…

And if something is billed as being about people talking about “pineapples”, how am I supposed to know if this is something I want to listen to. Surely, SURELY, this needs to be retro video game centric doesn’t it!? If you had some good insights about Rise of the Robots I might even stick around!

Anyway, just my very ill thought out feelings. Again, much love to you, man, and respect for doing it in the first place.

I did actually listen to some of this and then totally forgot to say so. I listened to it the day you put it up, so a while ago, so I’ll give you my lasting impressions.

I think it needs to settle in a bit. You’re both intelligent, articulate, and interesting, but it does have that ‘brand new podcast’ feel. The other chappy (sorry, I’ve forgotten his name and can’t re-click it without losing what I’m typing) sounds a bit over-excited/eager, whereas you almost sound the opposite. Either so relaxed that you don’t seem too fussed, or maybe even a little reticent. Between the two of you it sounds like two different manifestations of first day nerves, but I think it will find its rhythm with time.

It also sounded, to me, like your friend had brought the content and you were the reactions guy, from the parts I listened to and remember, and coupled with the fact that he sounds louder, closer to the mic and more excitable than you, the dynamic feels a little imbalanced, but that might just be the bits I listened to. I think you personally need to have a bit more of the content, and just find the pace between you. I think it will work and you’ll find a natural pace and to and fro after a few episodes, and it will work lovely.

Make it YouTube and I'm more likely to consume it. I really struggle with podcasts/talk radio. The exact same content with video. I lap up.

Having said that, I have listened to the first 15 minutes or so. And yeah it does seem a bit too beginners.

So far your mate seems to be the less impressive one, but maybe that's 'cos I know you, whereas I don't know him.

I'll try and listen to the rest and finish my thoughts.

Episode two of 'When it comes crashing down with Dan and Ross' is now available on your favourite podcast app.

This is an 80s movie special and once again, I'd welcome your comments. It's only our second go at this but I'm still enjoying it.

They're doing a "best of" right now, but it's a best of "them" rather than "the books", if you see what I mean.

Yesterday's day-long celebration of Shakespeare on Radio 3 was an absolute joy, with actors reading out classic speeches mixed around Bard-related tunes.

It's the kind of special event that works really well on live radio and reminded me just how much better Shakey is when taken out of the classroom.

Radio 4, 18:30 yesterday: Ken Cheng: I Can School You

Enjoyed this stand-up routine about the school maths. Definitely going to listen to the rest of the series.
Hadn't heard any of Cheng's stuff before but I've seen him on No Rolls Barred a few times.

Missed it when it was broadcast last year but started listening yesterday to Mary Beard's six-part Being Roman with Mary Beard.

She's as engaging and enthusiastic about the subject as ever. Looking forward to hearing the rest.

I've chosen Iceman, because he's better than Maverick.

I mean, okay, I guess that's subjective. He was top of the class, but then Mav had suffered some personal loss, and I doubt...

After all, he went back to teach at Top Gun, and Maverick never did.

WTAF, sir?! Not only is him going back to Miramar as an instructor the last scene of the movie (and he talks about it in the scene right before) it's LITERALLY THE ENTIRE PREMISE OF THE SEQUEL. On top of that, Iceman didn't become an instructor.

I swear to Vishnu, if y'all keep being so bad at 80s movies I'm going to come down there and throw VHS copies of Police Acadamy at you.

Can anyone recommend a podcast that is good for kids aged 8-12, fact-based, science-y, good for road trips?

Ideally with adult hosts that aren’t really annoying?

For one with some history (i.e. not currently releasing episodes, but plenty there), The Curious Cases of Rutherford & Fry.

Monthly, possibly more fun, A Problem Squared (Matt Parker and kid's Tv's Bec Hill).

And if you like that one, you might head for the occasional (15 episodes or so) A Podcast of Unnecessary Detail (Matt Parker again, his YouTube rival Steve Moulds and 'put it all in a song' Helen Arney).

Cheers both. I’ll get on and add both of those (I went off NoSuchThing a while ago for some reason, and haven’t made it back to listening, but I should catch a few more recent episodes). I don’t know those Podcasts, JBR, but they sound brilliant. Thank you!

Wow in the World is good for general science and knowledge stuff, and Greeking Out is a brilliant series of retellings of the Greek myths and legends.

Thanks everyone so much. I’ve loaded up with episodes for some road trippin’. Just had a quick listen to Greeking Out, which is great fun and one of the subjects Bean has studied this year, so I’m quite looking forwards to listening to some of those myself :D

I think I’ve got a good selection of episodes from all of those podcasts. Thanks folks! Absolute solid show of knowledge there, Beex Fam.

Far too late, but Science Vs. is my go-to. Sometimes they're not appropriate, but they make that very clear (and you can tell from the titles anyway).

At the other end of the spectrum, there's a pair of radio DJs from New Zealand who do a daily podcast of things they couldn't put on their radio show due to censorship, and it's fucking incredible. https://www.therock.net.nz/home/podcast ... radio.html

Thanks, Grim… I’ll take a look at the science one and see if I can make a playlist of appropriate episodes if it’s a good fit. Bean has started listening to podcasts a lot since our road trip.
