Call Jonathan Pie is a BBC Sounds show that I’ve been enjoying over the last month or so. If you’re familiar with Pie on Youtube then you’ll know what to expect; and if not, then it’s a fictional radio phone with, well Jonathan Pie.

Shoutout to Reasons to be Cheerful for always making me feel a little more positive about the state of the world.

    I mean this won’t be applicable to even 1% of the audience here, but if you understand Norwegian, Swedish or Danish, I can thoroughly recommend “Norsken, svensken og dansken”, described as a sort of Scandinavian family therapy. It’s such a good show and for an hour/week you get tremendous insights into the three countries and the issues of the hour.

    I make a podcast! It’s not that great or original. I basically talk nonsense and play music. It’s called Edinburgh Man (named after a song by The Fall).

    Also

    Mission to Zyxx An improvised star trek like serial. Despite my description it’s very VERY good. Finished now but there are a ton of episodes to binge. Listen from the start.

    Sonic the Comic the Podcast Two guys go issue by issue through the UK Sonic the Comic from the 90s. I was too old to read this at the time, but the show is really enjoyable.

    Annika Stranded On BBC Sounds. The original series on which the TV show Annika is based. Short 15 minute spoken word. You wouldn’t think it works, and it takes a few shows to find its feet, but it’s worth it.

    Retronauts, Get Played Two of my favourite video games pods.

    • RHLSTP (RHLSTP!)
    • My Mate Bought a Toaster
    • Acceptable in the Eighties (warning: really, really NSFW. Should probably come with every trigger warning possible)
    • The The One Show Show (although that seems to have finished/be on extended hiatus)
    • Distraction Pieces
    • My Time Capsule (pretty much the only family friendly podcast on this entire list).

    Not entirely sure what that list says about me really. Possibly that I need to seek professional help.
