PODCAST: Knowledge Enema - Episode 4



To quote British soul sensation Lemar:

"Been a long time - You say you missed me. Word gets round - You shouldn't have dissed me."

Wise words. And apposite.

Admittedly, you didn't say you missed me, word doesn't get round, and (to my knowledge) you haven't dissed me. But it has been a long time. Not since my last blog post. That was fairly recent.

No, I'm talking about a little podcast I like to call Knowledge Enema.

A long while back, I did three of these with my colleague, friend and fellow humanoid Alex Clissold-Jones. We're back with a fresh one. This is Season Two. The second seasons of shows are always better than the first. If this was The Wire, it'd be all about the docks. Luckily, it isn't.

In fact, it's been so long that I'd forgotten that I had a formula blog post for telling you about the podcast. You can find them here:
Knowledge Enema - Episode 1
Knowledge Enema - Episode 2
Knowledge Enema - Episode 3

The premise is a simple as it is confusing. Each episode, we attempt to remove useless knowledge from our brains, and replace it with something more beneficial. 

At the end of each episode, we do a sort of sketch-thing based on the topics we've discussed. So listen to the end (especially of Episode 2).

On this edition, we discuss murder mysteries. We get rid of our memories of culprits (so we can reset our detective dials and solve everything afresh) and Cluedo (for some reason). We then replace that knowledge with a murder mystery of our own creation. It's WATERTIGHT. Listen to the clues and see if you can work out who killed whoever it is that gets killed.

You can listen and download at the Podbean site here:

You can also listen and subscribe via iTunes. This link is in those old posts, but I can't check it here. So if this doesn't work just search for 'Knowledge Enema' on the iTunes store.

(Hopefully no-one will have stolen our name. It might also be a good name for a terrible punk band.)

And if you're unwilling to click on either of those links (because of your religion or something), you can listen to it here!

Pretty sweet. Mmm. Yeah.



That's right.

PODCAST: Knowledge Enema - Episode 3

New podcast be here! This one is shorter, but still packed full of people talking, pauses between words, my annoying laugh and other elements.

In Podcast 3 - Assembly we discuss embarrassing childhood incidents and contrast our schooldays with those of Tom Brown. To emphasise the raw, anything-can-happen (but probably won't) atmosphere, we also interact with the outside world in an amusing way.

As usual, listen at one of these places:

Once again, thanks to those that have been kind enough to listen. We'd appreciate any comments you might have. If you'd like to join in with the pod fun, please do so.
What do you like about it? What do you hate about it? What do you wear whilst listening? Were you scared by Alex's scream at the end of Podcast 2?

We'd be interested in hearing your embarrassing childhood stories, and would like to know if we're alone in our neuroses.

Please feel free to comment below, on the podcast website, or even on iTunes itself! We could be the next Ricky Gervaises - Kings of Podland.

PODCAST: Knowledge Enema - Episode 1

Hello!

What a momentous day. In years to come, people will look back on this day as March 8th 2010.

We have done an podcast.

By we, I mean me (Paul - the person who has been talking to you for all these years), and comedian extraordinaire and human ordinaire, Alex Clissold-Jones.

It is called Knowledge Enema, and is our attempt to replace useless knowledge with useful knowledge. Each episode will involve us banishing something harmful or pointless from our brains, and filling that space with something worthwhile.

We hope to thoroughly clean out our minds and become something akin to angels (I'll be looking for harps on eBay). We also ramble a bit, and have various extra nuggets of goodness.

If you can spare the time, we'd appreciate it if you'd give it a try!

You can listen to the thing/download it at the podcast site here:

http://diamondbadger.podbean.com/

In the bottom right-hand corner of that page you can also find a link to subscribe via iTunes (like real professional-types!).

If you're too lazy to do that, you can listen to it HERE! NOW! Look:

Please let us know what you think. Unless you think it's awful. In fact, even if it is awful.

There's a link to the right of this page that will show any updates. Hopefully these will be quite frequent, so stay tuned.

Or whatever it is you do on the world wide computer hub.
