Ep#11: Is Channel 4 A Massive Racist? - Posted on Thursday 15th October 2009 at Thursday, October 15th, 2009 05:48 pm GMT +1

What a packed episode. I discuss the prospect that being a cheating bastard could be genetic, the fact that the average American spends 68 hours online a month and how Channel 4 could actually potentially be racist. As well how some crazy nutjob fan can buy their final resting place next to Marilyn Monroe, Leona Lewis getting slapped and Derek Acorah trying to contact Michael Jackson live on TV. And here are the songs I mentioned in the show. They are exactly the same song and that I was right when I described the song as “a bad b-side from his album Thriller” since it was written in 1984 a couple of years after the album was made… Close enough!

Ep#8: Almost A BBC Special - Posted on Wednesday 7th October 2009 at Wednesday, October 7th, 2009 01:57 pm GMT +1

What an interesting couple of days it has been, luckily for me and my possible twice a week podcast! Lots of great information leaked to the public as well as the BBC causing more trouble with what their employees say. It serves them right for taking our license fees. They owe us, when they mess up, we want blood. Channel 5 wouldn’t treat us like this… Lets all just watch channel 5 from now on. It’ll be easier on our mental states.

Also I briefly talk about Amy Winehouse, Strictly Come Dancing, VERY briefly about the X Factor and of course the wonders of the Turner Prize! If you hate me for just covering stuff from my blog, I’m sorry, I’m still testing out the best form of attack for this site. If you hate me, let me know!

The BBC Shits Itself - Posted on at Wednesday, October 7th, 2009 09:57 am GMT +1

It appears that the BBC is going to be playing it safe from now on to try and win over the moronic viewers who complain about the Beebs output. It has been a very rocky road for the BBC this year what with Andrew Sachs answering machine and the phone-in scandals etc. Everyone has been up-in-arms in an explosion of buzzwords and solidarity of sheep proportions. So how are the BBC going to combat anything further happening? They’re going to move the watershed to 10pm. Well not officially but they going to stop using swearwords between 9pm and 10pm unless absolutely necessary, effectively moving it. They’re also going to be keeping an eye on things that are moving from BBC Three and BBC Two to BBC One to maintain that their audience, a bunch of slack jawed close to death Daily Mail readers (delete as appropriate) don’t get offended in their lovely houses in Tunbridge Wells.

That’s all well and good but then as the BBC puts out one fire, another one starts, this time with Strictly Come Dancing. Apparently the dancer Anton Du Beke called his partner Laila Rouass (off camera I’d like to hastily add) a “Paki” and a “Terrorist” after she had gotten a fake tan. Now out of context it seems like he was being malicious and a flaming racist. But as we have no evidence of him doing so we won’t know how it was said. Strangely though the BBC are actually standing by him which is strange for them. They’re always a bit too keen to make examples of it’s employees (all except the ones with the ludicrous expenses) One important thing to think about though is who actually went to the papers about this? Probably some snide little right winger. And it’s probably at this point that I will be thought of as a racist or whatever for not agreeing with the general consensus. This whole Anton Du Beke “scandal” is just another great way for political correctness to have another scapegoat. Well fuck political correctness. I hope it dies in some gutter somewhere.
