Worst Foot Forward

Pull up a chair, lay yourself a place at our wonky table and prepare to enjoy a stroll through our showroom of terrible furniture alongside our guide, multidisciplinary artist and woodworker Daniel Durnin. To your left you'll see a series of salacious presidential desks and sleazy beds, on your far right there is all sorts of spiky anti-social furniture and then as far as the eye can see is row upon row of misshapen and malformed fixtures and fittings.

We're booting up the Worst Foot Supercomputer this week - aka our guest Tasha Dhanraj - and asking it to find the answer to the great question: What is the World's Worst PC Game? We've got a hard-drive full of all kinds of everything including white supremacists, dust among The Sims and the game that taught you everything you could ever wish to know about cholera.

Spring has very definitely sprung and now summer is icumen in, bringing with it the usual mix of blazing sunshine and torrential rain. Given the love of the British and Irish for discussing the weather, Ben takes Barry on an appropriately whirlwind tour of rains of animals, heatwaves and the night before Ragnarok. Oh, and Pliny The Elder shows up because of course he does. Follow us on Twitter: @worstfoot @bazmcstay @benvandervelde

Turn your papers over, roll up your sleeves and hope that the cunning revision notes you'd tattooed onto your forearms in biro haven't smeared themselves into illegibility. This week we're joined by stand-up comedian, burlesque performer, lawyer and infuriated dancer Sikisa to talk about the world's worst examinations. We travel from the dreaming spires of Oxford to the elite butlering colleges of Amsterdam, via the Japanese underworld and performing arts schools everywhere. Tea trays on your head, white gloves on and 5, 6, 7, 8...

Standing among the wreckage of the European Super League and the shattered dreams of the wealthy owners of Europe's richest football clubs, Barry takes Ben on a cash-fuelled binge through some of sport's worst moneymaking efforts and innovations. There are the wild ambitions of Sepp Blatter, the misguided advertising efforts of Reebok and the night baseball tried to destroy disco. Follow us on Twitter: @worstfoot @bazmcstay @benvandervelde
