DJ M.A.D Hatter here spinning your requests until the sun comes up. This one goes out to a cat named Simon who wrote in from London say “I don’t hear enough about TV on your show – Why don’t you do something about that?”

Simon’s right of course, there isn’t much discussion of TV on this website or the podcast, and that’s mostly because I find TV to be such a difficult medium to critique. They tell stories in such a different manner, and said stories play differently depending on the circumstances the viewer sees the show. So perhaps the conversation shouldn’t be about what we watch, so much as it is how we watch it.

My guests this week are two people I’m lucky to know. They are both great friends; so much so that they both agreed to gather together and talk for this podcast with very little notice when illness ravaged my original guests. So while I have already said to them face to face, I wish to say it again here: Beth, Steve, you’re the cat’s pyjamas.

To recap the concept of this offshoot – expect to see these episodes turning up once a month. My intention is for them to be a bit more raw (there are almost no cuts in this conversation), a bit shorter, with no rules, and less of a pecking order on who sits down at the table.

Enjoy!
