This week we celebrate the life of one of my musical comedy heroes, Grant Baynham, who passed away on July 29th. Here you can spend forty minutes in his company as he regales us with songs, stories and silliness, plus he even takes part in everyone’s favourite feature, Herbal Tea Of The Week.
Listen to the Young’uns Podcast with quicksilver from 2017.
We’re back in the studio with the return of regular features. Spammer time, where we meet a rather flirtatious IT teacher; Cassette Roulette provides us with some very weird and intriguing 90s radio clips, and Ellie Skinner’s Weekly Animal Penis Fact turns its attention on the fox. Plus, another harrowing journey story, I become a role model for kids and we discover my unusual stage walk-on ritual.
Come with me on a comedy road trip as I travel From Hull down to Brighton, performing comedy to pensioners, students and even a room full of babies. Step this way for jokes, anecdotes, an array of highly unusual heckles, plus a collection of colourful characters including a very keen doorman, an unscrupulous cemetery officer, a B&B owner with a penchant for pranks, and of course Jimmy the pornographic audiobook recording fetish club blues singer of Birmingham.
The DJ set with no rules returns as once more we venture into a world where traditional folk song and pop music, sea shanties, grunge and techno unite in unholy musical matrimony.

This week I was doing stand up on BBC Radio 4’s The Now Show. So if you’ve always wanted to hear me do stand up, but just for five minutes and without having to get off your arse to come to a gig, then consider yourself in luck. You can listen here.
Happy New Year. Here’s part 2 of our podcast that features some highlights from 2021. Two animal themed quizzes starring folk musician Alex Cumming and comedian Paul Silky White; my dance hit inspired by an angry Australian bloke shouting about his penis; the story of my first foray into stand up comedy at the age of five; and a very weird radio show from my fourteen-year-old self.
Here’s part 1, with Spot popping, Princess Margaret erotica, Phil Nichol plays an adult quiz “courtesy” of our anti-social neighbours; there’s an epic, surreal military-based drama, weird Christian music, and more.
