Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to.
Joining Tim for a special Christmas edition is writer, broadcaster and quizmaster Ben Baker, who’s looking back to the original Now - The Christmas Album from 1985, which has since been quietly consigned to Christmas Past for all manner of reasons - and some of them are more 'problematic' than others. Along the way we'll be revealing the identity of 'The Anti-Tim Song', debating what we would have put on a second volume instead of just shuffling the same songs around again and again, exchanging some very frank opinions on Fairytale Of New York, and unveiling our new foolproof scheme for alluding to now-disgraced celebrities without actually naming them.
You can find more editions of Looks Unfamiliar at http://timworthington.org/. You can also find Ben on Looks Unfamiliar talking about Bernard And The Genie here, Mr T’s Christmas Dream, There’s Something Wrong In Paradise, God In The House, To Hell With The Devil, Highway, The Flint Street Nativity, the 1990 Bullseye Christmas Special, Adam And Joe’s Fourmative Years and TFI 1998 here, and The Goodies: Snow White 2, Roland’s Yuletide Binge and Grange Hill For Christmas here.
If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. Like a caffeine-addicted Paul McCartney, I would enjoy simply having one.
