EP 37: Colours
As part of a wide-ranging deep dive into my own mental health, I discover that I am sad. But the mood lifts as a remarkable opportunity comes my way, to not only make a few quid, but to ingratiate myself into the orbit of Professor Renton Stack, TV's renowned "roller skating philosopher". He's a regular on BBC Radio 4's In Our Time - and at his local A&E. Will the freewheeling, accident-prone septuagenarian academic be my ticket to success? Listen and find out...

Ep 35: The Complicated Murder
As the classic stage plays of Agatha Christie prove, crime and the theatre can make for a great night out. But can a crime IN a theatre make for a great podcast? I am about to prove it can, as I chance upon West End wrongdoing, right next door to The Mousetrap, the long-running show which sees the audience asked to keep the secret of the play - which I can reveal is... it's not about mice. In a star-studded special, listen as I rub shoulders with Lionel Blair, overhear Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber, get bullied by Dame Maggie Smith and only lightly injure Felicity Kendal. Take your seats for THE COMPLICATED MURDER. Music and effects from www.zapsplat.com Image copyright Johan Persson

Ep 34: THE FUNKIDS GRAMMAR ROADSHOW!
Does grammar stress you out? So it should. It's a highly complex area. That's just one of the opinions I come across in this episode, as I struggle to save a young girl called Bethany from the clutches of grammatically correct EVIL. Listen as I uncover the new craze taking Generation Z by storm, which sees young people gathering under one mans meticulous gaze - a man who would no doubt be appalled by my intentional omission of a possessive apostrophe from "mans" just then.

It's a story that sees me confront military psy ops, an embalmed human hand, a confusing steel orb, and some profound mental rearrangement. I only wanted to do a bloody first aid course.
