Broadcaster, writer, philanthroper and one of the first public figures to suggest high-visibility clothing for people manning temporary car parks, the public Alan Partridge is a cherished institution. But what of the unseen Alan? For the first time, this famously private man welcomes us into his home and audibly deshrouds himself for a fascinating series of podcasts.

Please note: this podcast contains strong language (and dangerously high level lyrical content).

Self-described ‘legends’ of Brentford’s UK Garage pirate radio scene – MC Grindah, DJ Beats, DJ Steves, and their manager Chabuddy G – gather round the mic in Steve’s nan’s flat to discuss more of what they think about some of the world’s most important subjects. This time it’s Crime, Business, Books, Parenting, Celebrities and Health.

The Kurupt FM crew are back. Due to (they claim) overwhelming demand from the fans, pirate radio veterans MC Grindah, DJ Steves, DJ Beats, and their manager, Chabuddy G, return to provide vital insight on six burning issues: Nature, Politics, TV & Film, The Future, History, and Travel. Prepare to come away, if not better informed, certainly with a better understanding of what a garage MC reckons about some stuff.

Alan returns to podcasting, offering his unique perspective on life’s big questions, the hot-button issues of the day, his professional successes and the most intimate details of his personal life in a series he is already calling ‘seminal’. The second series will come partly from the oasthouse—in order to satisfy people who'd rather he didn’t mess with the format—and partly from other locations—to appeal to those who found the original format a bit limiting.

200 years in the future, environmental catastrophe has befallen the Earth, leaving the skies and weather systems transformed into a nightmarish maelstrom of rainbow chemicals, and the city of London wiped off the map (opinion remains divided on whether or not this was the best outcome for the country).

Grace Williams and Elliot Dowd meet for a blind date arranged by Connector Magazine’s ‘Match-Ups’ feature, a popular free mag flung in to the hands of commuters at tube stations.

If we were as tiny as ants to another being, what would they make of our philosophies? The great satirist Voltaire imagines alien visitors who have opinions. Bedtime stories are narrated by the world's most celebrated voices and written with no beginning, middle, or end so you don't stay up to hear what happens next.

But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.
