Defendant's statement
TV Licensing authority v Professor Bumble
It was a mistake your honour.
A genuine mistake.All my friends warn me that my trusting nature may sometimes even tip over into gullibility.
I have already lost most of my savings to people claiming to be in possession of a large sum of money in my name, which they will be able to release for a modest proportion of the fortune.- Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!

3 min - Donald, me and the BBC
Send us Fan Mail
The BBC has pulled off a journalistic coup, with a radio interview given by President Trump to the BBC’s Senior correspondent in America, Gary O’Donoghue.
For me, it had a special resonance with the time during which I examined the relationship between the BBC and the leader of the then British government, Boris Johnson.
That was to become the material published as Boris me and the BBC, which in turn suggested the title of this audiotape, Donald me and the BBC.
I have tried to treat the interview in the way I reported the events as reported by the BBC in the earlier project. In particular I attempt to get beyond what was said, in order to draw conclusions, including those reached by the BBC.- Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!

CaveMan Rap: The True Story
Tudor Rickards
Inspired by Jonathan Levitt and his team of silicon helpers
Way back before the wheel was there
Everything in the world was square
Then Caveman invented Caveman Rap
With a Caveman Tap and a Caveman Clap
He got too old for fishing and trapping
So he invented Caveman Rapping
With a click of a stick and his knuckles cracking
That’s how he invented Cave Man rapping- Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!

2 min - How to write a poem about Netanyahu
Send us Fan Mail
A recent article in a serious current affairs journal challenged its readers to send in any suggestion for a rhyme for Netanyahu. I took up the challenge but unfortunately failed to record the name of the journal.
Anyway, here are my efforts and a little background, a sort of bluffers guide to writing rhyming verse
(I won’t go so far as to describe it as poetry).
My first scribbled efforts demonstrated to me that rhyming with Netanyahu in English is far from easy. Here they are from my old fashioned notebook.- Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!

This is our Globe
Tudor Rickards
A previously unpublished poem which seems suitable for turning into something special with more than a little help from my IT savvy friends ...
WRITTEN FOR TWO VOICES
THE ROUND EARTHER
THE FLATEARTHER
I IMAGINE THE EFFECT TO BE LIKE THE CROWD SINGING ‘ABIDE WITH ME’ AT THE CUP FINAL:
THIS IS OUR GlOBE
THE ROUNDEARTHER
The Earth is round, I’ll have a bet with you
What do you say? You know the moon is, too
Which you can see quite clearly from the ground
There is no questioning. The Earth is round- Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!

Rainbow words. How they are contributing to dangers to our civilisation
A post on the X platform recently set me thinking about its contents. It read:
Here in the UK it’s dawning on many of us that rainbow words like tolerance, diversity and inclusion have been exploited to trick us into acting as stewards of our own destruction, and that if we were a bit more prejudiced and racist we’d have a safer and more civilised country.

5 min - Miracle at the Tennis Club
Send us Fan Mail
I bring the news of a miracle that took place at the tennis club which has figured from time to time in these podcasts.
Doctor Glycol, who has also featured from time to time has conceded that something very strange has taken place although from his strictly scientific viewpoint miracles are no more than unscientific representations of scientific phenomena.
I will let my audience decide whether they agree with Dr. Glycol.- Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!

About TudoRama
From the publisher's feed
TudoRama explores the nature and practice of creativity in the arts, sciences, politics and above all in everyday life. Tudor Rickards is Emeritus Professor of Creativity and Organizational Change at…
the University of Manchester. Tudor studied chemistry and radiation chemistry at The University of Wales at Cardiff. Following post-doctoral research at New York Medical College, he returned to the UK to work in technical management before joining Manchester Business School. He has published numerous books and articles on creativity, sporting management and leadership, as well as fictional works involving the mythical University of Urmston. He has been influential in the development of creativity-related projects in Europe, including the European Association for Creativity and Innovation (EACI), and was co-founder (with Susan Moger) of the journal Creativity and Innovation Management. He is also author of detective stories centred around the fictional University of Urmston, and a nearby chess club which houses a top-secret government surveillance operation. His recent switch to podcasting reaches out to a wider general audience interested in current affairs, and the processes of creativity previously described in his lectures, blogposts, and textbooks.
