Welcome to the Andrew Collings (Andrew Collins) and Richard Herrin (Richard Herring) podcasts in which we deliver our own sideways look at the news. Our fervent wish is to recreate our now legendary news reviews from Andrew's now-defunct BBC 6 Music show, except without the indie records interrupting us, and without the need to temper the content for fear of offending a Sunday afternoon radio audience.
In our twelfth podcast, we defend Ant and Dec, defend Hitler, share our memories of being in the Bullingdon club and find out what we were both doing on May 5, 1982 by using our diaries. Don't turn off when we start talking about the bouncy castle as it get unexpectedly much better after it.

Podcast 11Date: 2nd May 2008 Length: 53 mins File size: 48.2mb In our eleventh podcast, recorded during the knife-edge count in the London mayoral elections, we discuss both the "bloodbath" and the "meltdown" for Labour, while sparing a thought for fascist Italy, Miley Cyrus (who inspired our photo), drunk women in Northumbria and the fools who spend money asking 118 and 118 questions when we can answer them for free. |
Podcast 10Date: 28th April 2008 Length: 54 mins File size: 49.7mb In our tenth anniversary podcast, we wonder how "sensational" Alan Levy's memoir is going to get on Tuesday, what makes Austrians put people in cellars, why on earth would Trinny and Susannah go naked for publicity and what if Lembit Opik actually married both Cheeky Girls? |
