Danny Wallace's Important Broadcast

The Important Broadcast Module 427: Is Hair A Lady?

Sun, 12 Apr 2026 15:30:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast does not comment on any legal entanglements it may or not be involved in, at any time. No comment. This week, The Great Leader's specially appointed hairdresser surprised him. He needs to consider her observations. Meanwhile, Steve has been offered a job or two. Possibly...

The Important Broadcast Module 425: Just Because

Sun, 29 Mar 2026 15:30:00 +0100

The Great Leader is patient, but only to a point. If the cat (Chores) and the dog (Hassle) push him too far... That patience will run out. This week, Steve seizes upon an opportunity to recover costs and an invitation for the listener to be positive falls flat.

Sun, 08 Mar 2026 15:30:00 +0100

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 15:30:00 +0100

When you really think about it, there are lots of sounds you used to hear 30 years ago, which have fallen silent in the intervening years. When's the last time you heard a cassette rewind?? EXACTLY.

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 15:30:00 +0100

The Great Leader prepares, curates and meditates upon his lessons for hundreds of hours, before he delivers them to thine ears. At the other end of the spectrum, Steve simply brings some 'loose thoughts.' This week, bottomless crisps, questionable parking and a breaking down of the creativity barriers. Get in.

The Important Broadcast Module 413: Unwritten Rules

Sun, 04 Jan 2026 15:30:00 +0100

It would be pointless to suggest that The Great Leader was 'starting 2026 as he means to go on.' Everything He does happens precisely when and because He means it to. That said, 2026 began with great intention. An epic seasonal trip to Switzerland from The Great Leader and a raft of predictions for the year ahead, from Steve.

The Important Broadcast Module 408: A Scandinavian Vibe

Sun, 30 Nov 2025 15:30:00 +0100

Despite the serious and sober nature of The Important Broadcast, there was an almost playful mood this week and many games took place as a result... "What's Your Deal", "Got, Got, Need", "Steve vs. Michelle" & "Dinner Winner" all had a run out. How fun. Plus, an almost unbelievable film from Peter Andre and some discarded paint.

The Call Out: Leadering Britain’s Conversation

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 01:00:00 +0100

Look, any fool can do a phone-in show on the radio. It takes a real leader to reverse the phone lines and call the listener. That's exactly what happened in this special edition podcast. The temperature of the nation has been taken and the results are encouraging.

Enjoy.

Sun, 21 Sep 2025 15:30:00 +0100

The last time The Great Leader permitted a guest into The Important Broadcast arena, it was October 2020. This week, he flung open the doors once more, to welcome podcaster, author and very nice man, Andy McGrillen. Plus, how big are giraffes, really?

Still reading this blurb? Fair play. Last week, the title and blurb made reference to a part of the programme that was completely missed out of the podcast. Isn't it mad that it can even happen? Let alone how often it happens. It's like calling something "The Horse Show" and letting people buy tickets, only to discover there aren't any horses. This week, the "What's Your Deal" segment that should have been included last week, is now available for your enjoyment. Just a week late. Please accept the apologies of the enormous team who work behind the scenes on The Important Broadcast. There are so many of them. Literally too many to name. It would be impossible to know whose fault it was.

What does it all mean, and how does it affect things going forward? With the very latest developments only now becoming clear, Danny, Steve and Joe dissect what's known and wonder what isn't. This is your Emergency Podcast. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 250: Two-Fundred-And-Fifty

Sun, 13 Nov 2022 16:30:00 +0100

So it really was the case, that Stephen Ferdinando would be absent for the 250th Module of this very Important Broadcast. Nonetheless, The Leader was gleeful in his celebratory garments. With Rufus (dog) present once more, the conversation turned every which way, from currywurst, inanimate object empathy and beyond. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Simon. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 249: I Was A Clownfish

Sun, 06 Nov 2022 17:00:00 +0100

249 Modules! Only one more to go until the great big, exciting 250th! So you'd have to imagine something BIG is planned, right?! Wrong... Steve's going on a mini break, so it'll be just another Important Broadcast. GOOD SCHEDULING STEVE... Never mind. This week, the minds of the I.B.S were turned to matters including fig rolls, team building, dubious film titles and grey hair. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Vicky, Richard & James. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 248: Lee Evans' House At Halloween

Sun, 30 Oct 2022 15:30:00 +0100

We all remember that don't we? Popping round on the trick or treat circuit and giving Lee Evans' house a knock...? Maybe not. Plus, unbelievable phone-based rudeness in The Great Leader's life and that pesky snake from the bible. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Brian. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 247: Heathens Stephens

Sun, 23 Oct 2022 17:30:00 +0100

This week, producer of the show - Sloppy Joe Attewell - was off with ‘bowel issues’ and so Mr Harold once again stepped up to the plate in his absence. Fear not, Dinner Winner was still played (albeit in a friendly), we still told you some things that you don’t know, and we still prepared you with some small talk for that moment when you get asked ‘What is going on eh??’. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Ian (courtesy of his wife incumbent, Stef.) Thank you.

246 full, enriching episodes of The Important Broadcast, eh? Imagine what you've learned! Imagine the person that you might have been, had you not chosen this path. Anyway... This week, you must prepare yourself for talk of possessed dogs, slain pigeons and whether or not everything (or nothing) is on 'the table'. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Marcus (courtesy of the very graceful, Grace.) Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 245: Patrouille Suisse

Sun, 09 Oct 2022 14:00:00 +0100

Steve returned from his US excursion with tales of many things. The Great Leader himself carried a heavy cold, but this did not impede his brilliance. There were also mentions of the Swiss Airforce aerobatics team, piglets and Barack Obama. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Marcus. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 244: Worm Tongue

Sun, 02 Oct 2022 16:30:00 +0100

With Steve attending a Stateside wedding, to which he wasn't invited, it was up to The Great Leader to pull an even greater weight than the enormous one he usually bears. Nonetheless, there was still plenty of room for talk of wombats, numbats, moles, beavers, yoghurt, limes and Anglo-Saxon huts. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Ross McMahon Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 243: I Always Wanted To Go To Harvard

Sun, 25 Sep 2022 15:30:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Module 241: A More Serious Broadcast

Sun, 11 Sep 2022 18:00:00 +0100

The clue’s in the name this week, for obvious reasons.

Danny and Steve eased the listeners back towards normality with a slightly stripped back but still very light hearted module of The Important Broadcast. As a reward to our loyal subscribers, there's plenty of fun to be had in the podcast extras as well a sneaky condensed version of Dinner Winner.

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk

This weeks podcast is for Coops.

Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 240: A Ghost Dog, a Witch and a Fisherman

Sun, 04 Sep 2022 17:00:00 +0100

Sloppy Joe was away this week but that did not phase the Great Leader one bit as he held the show together masterfully despite Steve and Mr Harold's(The cover producer) best efforts to unsettle him. Also in this week's show, we equip you with what to say now that the kids are back to school. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for George. Thank you.

Sun, 28 Aug 2022 14:30:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Module 238: Start With Subbuteo

Sun, 21 Aug 2022 16:30:00 +0100

Being a Senior Listener, is like being a police officer, or a bank manager. It's a position held by an upstanding member of the community, but one who knows their place. This week, two listeners took a daring leap into the unknown, as they through themselves on the mercy of The Great Leader, in the name of Senior Listenership. But were they successful?? PLUS, business hotels, stolen yogurt, chocolate and.... Is Steve hungover?? Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Thomas & Lucy. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 237: Con Flores

Sun, 14 Aug 2022 17:00:00 +0100

It was another one of those ones today... When, in the production meeting before the show, Steve says "I don't think I've really done anything this week." Then, of course, part way through the show, he comes out with "Oh yeah, I went to a horse sanctuary." Perfect. Plus, The Great Leader's holiday nemesis and a scary, snowy scene in "Explain That." Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Cristina (with listener), subject to conditions. Thank you.

Introducing: Restless Natives !

Wed, 10 Aug 2022 23:11:00 +0100

Hey listener, here's a podcast we think you'd like to listen to... Restless Natives is a cult Scottish film from 1985 featuring two scallywags – The Clown & The Wolfman. It’s iconic. Two resourceful rascals who take on the ambitious task of holding-up tourist buses in the Highlands… They were Robin Hood, only Scottish and on the back of a motorbike. Gordon Smart & Martin Compston are sampling that spirit - inspired by The Clown & The Wolfman - and distilling it into a podcast. They are setting themselves lofty ambitions before setting off in pursuit of tasks and goals they have absolutely no right achieving. A bit like their careers in TV, movies, newspapers and radio… Join them as they recount some of their ridiculous scrapes and adventures from the past while they plan even more ambitious, unreachable schemes for the future. Some of them will be achieved and others will crash and burn spectacularly. They’ve got lots to talk about, lots to share with you and nothing but time. As the film once said: “Is this the end of the story or a beginning of a legend?”

The Important Broadcast Module 236: A Modern, Self-Inflating Ego

Sun, 07 Aug 2022 15:30:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Module 235: One of The Leaves Tasted Like Apples

Sun, 31 Jul 2022 17:00:00 +0100

How many of you go through your weeks thinking... "I wonder what Steve Ferdinando did this week." Well this week, the answer was "foraging." Meanwhile, The Great Leader researched the lighter side of the prison system and why not take a guess on how many Kit-Kat flavours there are in Japan? IT'S LOADS. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Romana. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 234: Dustbin Dad

Sun, 24 Jul 2022 15:30:00 +0100

The Great Leader branched out this week and blessed the patrons of Latitude Festival with his presence. The masses gathered, marvelled and at times fainted - and contrary to local reports of hot weather and dehydration, The Important Broadcast is confident that it was The Great Leader himself who provoked this. Elsewhere, Steve celebrated his birthday and a French taxi driver had a cup of coffee. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Sara. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 233: An Office Fan

Sun, 17 Jul 2022 16:30:00 +0100

You may not need The Important Broadcast Squad to remind you how hot it's been of late, but a spot of small-talk on the topic never hurt anyone. The Great Leader made many pronouncements today. All of which should be noted down. Plus, Steve bought a fan and got lost on a bus. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for "all the nurses" and "Battersea Dogs & Cats Home". Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 232: BIG Mistake

Sun, 10 Jul 2022 15:30:00 +0100

It was a seat of the pants show today, but only because SOMEONE couldn't get their buttons right. The Great Leader remained flawless and Steve turned up and said many of the sorts of things he usually says like "I don't burn that hard" and "I have no facts." Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for James. Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 231: Kenny

Sun, 03 Jul 2022 17:00:00 +0100

Sun, 03 Apr 2022 16:00:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Module 211: I'm Like David Geffen

Sun, 06 Feb 2022 17:30:00 +0100

**PLEASE READ** The Producer of Danny Wallace's Important Broadcast would like to clarify that in the course of today's show, he incorrectly attributed a poem about peas, to the excellent poet, Pam Ayres. Whilst Ayres' works are many and splendid, she did not write this particular ode to peas. The internet makes conflicting claims about who did write the poem. ANYWAY. This week, Steve wore his (slowly fading) mustard shirt and claimed he was like David Geffen. Don't worry about Googling him, because The Great Leader will ensure you are fully up to speed.

Merry Boxing Day from The Important Broadcast and if Boxing Day isn't your bag (or box), then we hope you've had a smasher of a day, nonetheless.

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

Compulsory Podcast: Bonus EarMiles

Sat, 17 Aug 2019 11:30:00 +0100

Whilst The Great Leader wishes for you to understand that this extra podcast is a gift, he also wants it understood that it is COMPULSORY LISTENING. It's no good having a whinge when you fall behind everyone else. Also, why wouldn't you want to listen? Didn't you hear about the return of the third best quiz on the radio..... OH YEAH.

The Important Broadcast Module 80: I Always Get Street Food Mixed Up With Road Kill

Sun, 21 Jul 2019 14:00:00 +0100

Sun, 14 Jul 2019 14:30:00 +0100

You've got the whole world to choose from... Where are you going to book a stag do? Dorking, of course. Steve was absent this week as he took in the sights and smells of Dorking. Meanwhile, The Great Leader was thrilled to have an insight into the various listener chambers; but do you REALLY listen in a cave??? There's also an orange seagull, a couple of Senior Listeners make an appearance and Google translate lets itself down. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 78: The Tasty Nasty Pasty Pasty

Sun, 07 Jul 2019 14:00:00 +0100

For the sake of clarity - the first "pasty" in the title is pronounced PAYSTEE and the second is pronounced PASTEE. Glad we cleared that up. Welcome to Module 78 of The Important Broadcast. Topics covered this week included chickens in Jersey, a Walmart cake and the return of an old nemesis. You can also expect some more ridiculous reviews in X-Rated! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 77: Are You Polyester?

Sun, 30 Jun 2019 15:00:00 +0100

What sort of person uses a spoon for Marmite? This week's podcast will answer that question, and so many more. The Great Leader spake of many things this week: Not least a driving test centre, paragliding and the last time he saw Noel Gallagher. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 76: A See Through Bag With An Atrocity In It

Sun, 23 Jun 2019 16:00:00 +0100

If you hadn't heard of a pig pluck before, then now is the time to start listening. The Great Leader tackled the issue of 'compliance' this week and did so with great aplomb.

The Important Broadcast Module 75: I Can't Believe No One Else In Here Cares

Sun, 16 Jun 2019 15:00:00 +0100

You could never conclude that The Important Broadcast is one to pass you by without controversy. The Great Leader loves it: Every Sunday he arises from his slumber and bathes in a vat of liquid controversy, before setting off for the broadcast. This week, you can expect a story about a monkey, a new X-Rated feature (not saucy) and a deeper look into Steve's dreams (not saucy*). Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you. *sometimes saucy

The Important Broadcast Module 74: I’d Like To Announce My Candidacy

Sun, 09 Jun 2019 16:49:00 +0100

By all means announce your candidacy for a political party. Everyone else is doing it. But don’t, for goodness sake, try to usurp The Great Leader. He hates it when people do that. This week’s episode will bring you a night out with Chris Moyles & Johnny Vaughan, a pesky crow and sexy puffin. That’ll be plenty. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk.

The Important Broadcast Module 73: It's In The Basement of A Hostel

Sun, 02 Jun 2019 15:30:00 +0100

Greetings Dan Fans. This week The Important Broadcast Podcast had an air of silliness. A giddiness if you will. It'll make you feel as though you just stepped off the tea-cups and ate several donuts in quick succession. Or not. What you can expect involves a daring seagull, a Kruise holiday (yes that's "Kruise" and not "Cruise") and a meat face. There's also a brief stop at the David Hasselhoff museum. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 72: In The Presence of A Journalist

Sun, 26 May 2019 14:00:00 +0100

Steve Ferdinando: Always hiding his light under a bushell. Once you know what his job really is, you'll never think of him in the same way again.

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 71: What's Down There?

Mon, 20 May 2019 17:00:00 +0100

Name another broadcast that'll bring you up to speed on turkeys, mayonnaise & rice dishes... YOU CAN'T. This week, the Great Leader talks photography, potentially offends the Cockney community and brings the game of Dinner Winner into disrepute. You can also expect a fair few mentions of monster trucks. All that plus the dramatic retelling and 10th anniversary of THAT Eurovision story! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 70: I Could Smell His Wings

Sun, 12 May 2019 16:00:00 +0100

You may think to yourself, "Dinner Winner isn't everyone's cup of tea" - but that is irrelevant. How would you know what The Great Leader and The Nitwit had for dinner otherwise? Exactly. This week, Steve went to the theatre, but don't ask him what he saw; that's a pointless question. In other news, Danny found himself in the news. Damn those tabloid jackwagons. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 69: What Do You Reckon Richard Madeley's Doing?

Sun, 05 May 2019 15:00:00 +0100

A broadcast should not be easy. A broadcast should not be fun. This broadcast seeks only to educate and spark debate. Should the Pope be getting involved? Should you listen to music when you run? Should you provide a dossier of evidence when discussing what you had for dinner this week? Yes. Just say yes. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 68: Shed Head (with Cookie Monster & Gonger)

Sun, 28 Apr 2019 14:00:00 +0100

"It’s here, it’s been filmed in real life and it’s in Bristol because this is what happens in Bristol now". Excellent words from Tristan Cork there. This week, The Important Broadcast challenges you, not only to Get Into The Music, but also to question the merits of a Full English Breakfast. You can also expect a pair of VERY exciting guests from Sesame Street! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 67: They Only Need To Survive The Reception

Sun, 21 Apr 2019 14:00:00 +0100

How on earth do you pronounce Donald Duck's middle name? Just ask Steve Ferdinando. This week, the sqaud marked Easter Sunday with a typically professional broadcast: Goldfish at a wedding, a peacock in a garden and all of the things that get you riled right up. You can also expect a spicy Dinner Winner and a brief Spanish lesson. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 66: A Slice of Ham As Thick As Your Arm

Sun, 14 Apr 2019 14:30:00 +0100

Returning triumphantly from Austria, The Important Broadcast Sqaud hit the airwaves upbeat, ready and armed with a story about neolithic dogs. Have you ever wondered how watery a potato is?

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 65: I've Eaten A Burger From Space

Sun, 07 Apr 2019 14:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader bends the space-time continuum in order to service you, the listener, with your broadcast. Despite being in transit to Austria, the IBS stepped up and delivered nonetheless. Expect mimes, a disturbing story from Steve and national anthems aplenty. There's also some sausages and a fact about Tom Grennan! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 64: Jet Lag Exists

Sun, 31 Mar 2019 15:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader was rejoined by the nitwit this week. Fresh (but not too fresh, because jet-lag exists) off the plane from Columbia, Steve returned with offerings of high-culture and nonsese; but mostly nonsense. Expect seagull noises, tulip bulbs (DON'T EAT THEM) and all the "Bad Mother" stories you could ask for. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 63: I Stand Corrected

Sun, 24 Mar 2019 15:30:00 +0100

Even The Great Leader is wrong sometimes. It happens. With one more week before Steve returns, the listeners were once again employed to fill the void. Alex from Woodbridge played a valiant round of Tell Me Something I Don't Know, and Simon from Essex became The Important Broadcast's very first "Platinum Listener". You can also expect a cameo appearance from Steve as he communicated his Columbian dinners from the other side of the Atlantic! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 62: Steve Has Knees

Sun, 17 Mar 2019 15:00:00 +0100

What do you do when your co-host goes on an unexpected holiday? You invite that guy who you know from Rent-a-Friend.com of course! This week, The Great Leader extended a warm welcome back to Jules as he returned for a second opportunity to "Get Into The Music". Expect a story about cheese, a fact about Mr Potato Head and a brief mention of the Hitler's: Not just the main one, but the other ones. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 61: What's Your Favourite Swimming Stroke?

Sun, 10 Mar 2019 15:00:00 +0100

This week, The Important Broadcast flung it's doors open to a new friend!

Further to this, The Great Leader shared a story about a naked man and Steve got heavily into the notion of time travel. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 60: I Could Off An Immortal Jellyfish

Sun, 03 Mar 2019 15:30:00 +0100

Immortal or invulnerable? We'll be the judge of that. This week, Steve was (somewhat forcefully) introduced to a new friend. The Great Leader also offers you tales of massage, salsa and welding. In addtion, please expect a hotly contested Dinner Winner and some senseless gossip. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 59: Coconuts Don't Have Teats

Sun, 24 Feb 2019 15:00:00 +0100

There you have it: 59 modules of The Important Broadcast Podcast before we finally mentioned "teats". This week, The Great Leader sent Steve to The Brit Awards to get some gossip. Did Steve succeed? Well.... What do you think? Dinner Winner returned after a controversial game last week and a German town was invaded by Smurfs. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 58: The Oven of My Thoughts

Sun, 17 Feb 2019 15:00:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Podcast gives you more. More laughs, more facts and more evidence that there's very little point in listening to, frankly, anything else. This week, The Great Leader is dealt a culinary blow, Steve springs a law-based surprise and there's a good look at whether the listener has had their lunch. It's all need to know stuff! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 57: How Old Are We?

Sun, 10 Feb 2019 15:00:00 +0100

Oh! What a lovely broadcast. This week The Great Leader smiled upon a senior listener with a generous gift and the world smiled with him. Steve didn't hold back when it came to his review of black and white awards-fest "Roma" and Joe forgot how old he is. It happens, doesn't it? DOESN'T IT?? As well as all this, get ready to meet Bigfoot and prepare to learn about caffeine, Polaroid pictures, skiing, salmon & fried chicken! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 56: I've Got My Opinions

Sun, 03 Feb 2019 15:00:00 +0100

Whilst Steve has got no money, he's got his strong beliefs. This week, The Great Leader gives his blessing for the return of Steve's film reviews. Strap in, it gets opinionated. Also, you know how much you love it when someone starts a conversation with; "I had a dream last night, where......." Yes: That happens too. All that plus a difficult decision, a misplaced accusation and some sizeable compensation. It's your Important Broadcast. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 55: How Have You Bean?

Sun, 27 Jan 2019 16:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader had cause to celebrate this week. 10 years to the day since the grand opening of The Baked Museum of Excellence? See you at the party! Further to this, Steve was praised for his athletic efforts, some men stole some botox and a woman married a duvet. Classic Important Broadcast. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 54: Blame It On The Blood Moon

Sun, 20 Jan 2019 16:00:00 +0100

Time's a funny thing isn't it? Does it matter? You bet you're listening partner's backside it does! The Great Leader was disturbed this week by the presence of an astronomical anomaly. Steve made a factual error (now rectified) and Joe had his head in his hands. What a time to be alive. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 53: It's Just A Misdemeanour!

Sun, 13 Jan 2019 15:00:00 +0100

The teachings were food heavy this week. Can you tell the future with asparagus? Can you open a restaurant in your house? Which dinner is better, meatballs or toast? The Great Leader will answer your silly questions with flair and ease. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 52: Do It At The Super Bowl

Sun, 06 Jan 2019 15:30:00 +0100

It's approaching a year to the day since The Great Leader brought The Important Broadcast back onto the airwaves. Today, it continued in typically magnificent form with new features, new sayings and new ideas about where honey comes from.

Sun, 30 Dec 2018 15:00:00 +0100

Greetings! Welcome to this special edition of The Important Broadcast Podcast. As the year draws to a close, please enjoy "The Best of The Bits You Didn't Hear". Ok, sure; if you're a regular listener to the podcast, then you might well have heard these bits, but what are you going to do? Some of the words that you hear in this podcast are completely new words. That is to say that they are newly recorded moments that you haven't heard before, not 'new words' in the sense that Steve sometimes makes words up. Enjoy! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 50: The Christmas Lectures

Sun, 23 Dec 2018 18:00:00 +0100

Greetings from the warm bosom of The Important Broadcast. May your days be merry or bright. At this time of year, we join together and make hard to substantiate claims about ridiculous abilities that we have.... Well Steve does anyway.

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 49: Festivus

Sun, 16 Dec 2018 16:00:00 +0100

Is it ever too early to start getting into the yuletide spirit? The Great Leader thinks that yes, it can be too early. Not to worry; this week's show was a fairly Christmas-heavy zone nonetheless. Expect a big mistake from Steve, the time that Christian Bale met Donald Trump, a (verified) fact about cows and a welcome return from Bill Turnbull as The Important Documentaries continue! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 48: Hacking

Sun, 09 Dec 2018 15:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader invites listeners (senior and junior alike) onto The Broadcast with caution. He does so to appear approachable, warm and affable. This week, it was decreed that Senior Listener Ben should be allowed to spend some time experiencing The Broadcast first hand, owing to his absent-minded Mother's actions, which caused him to miss the beginning of The Broadcast. Following this, Ben and the other listeners recieved great teachings on bull (hand) fighting, threathening emails and enchiladas. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 47: Subterfuge

Plus, a deep analysis, almost bordering on spoken dissertation, of Chris Rea's travel plans for Christmas, a controversial Dinner Winner AND an incredible round of Tell Me Something I Don't Know. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 46: Tensions

Sun, 25 Nov 2018 16:30:00 +0100

The Great Leader goes to great lengths to ensure that a toxic work environment is avoided at all costs. Steve ignores these efforts and makes it difficult for everyone.

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 45: Betrayal

Sun, 18 Nov 2018 15:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader is a skilled user of words; he knows LOADS of them. Steve has a fairly good grasp on words, but isn’t against making them up from time to time. People are different, and that’s ok. In this week’s edition, you should expect horses, a forgotten birthday, some art work (v. exciting) and a fact about Carly Simon’s Dad. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 44: Chromatics

The Important Broadcast Module 42: Literature

Sun, 28 Oct 2018 16:00:00 +0100

Ok, sure.... The Great Leader has written some books. But what about Steve Ferdinando's literary achievements? Does The Important Broadcast spend enough time celebrating those? Perhaps not. This week's instalment looks to rectify this; marvelling at Steve's facility with language and congratulating him on his free-flowing dialogue and effortless delivery. You can also expect a story about a giant peanut, a lumpy hand update and the inevitable facts about animals. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 41: Broadcasting

Sun, 21 Oct 2018 14:00:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Module 40: S, Tea, You

Sun, 14 Oct 2018 14:00:00 +0100

Standby. Sit down. Stray not from the Important Broadcast. Surrender yourself to The Great Leader and slide into something saucy. Still on the air after 40 shows and slaying it.

The Important Broadcast Module 37: Pedestrian Humour

Sun, 23 Sep 2018 14:30:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Module 36: War

Sun, 16 Sep 2018 14:00:00 +0100

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 35: Oscitation

Sun, 09 Sep 2018 17:30:00 +0100

Where on earth could it be hidden!? Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 34: Shock Value!

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 33: Geography

Sun, 26 Aug 2018 17:30:00 +0100

It was a multi-faceted broadcast this week. The Great Leader: Dry, warm, dignified and resplendent. Steve Ferdinando: Wet, cold, bedraggled and elsewhere. As Steve reported live from Victorious Festival in Portsmouth - the usual mix of facts, larks and a couple of jokes were all still present and correct. Expect an explosive squid, a STUNNING five-star-challenge and an ex-footballer who doesn't drink tea. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you

Sun, 19 Aug 2018 14:00:00 +0100

Join the Great Leader and Steve Ferdinando as they bring you facts, larks and lies. This week Steve was late, but don't worry - The Leader didn't let this pass without mention.

The Important Broadcast Module 31: Slander

Sun, 12 Aug 2018 14:00:00 +0100

This week, The Great Leader puts the ball in Steve's court. Steve's reaction is to say something slanderous about a friend's Dad on national radio. Good times. There's also a story from an alley way, a tiger and an email. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

Sun, 22 Jul 2018 14:00:00 +0100

This week, The Great Leader brings Steve in to his warm bosom and offers some advice on a tricky issue. A fantastic edition of "Tell Me Something I Don't Know" will leave you very much richer in the fact stakes, and look out for a very wet truck driver, a formation of female festival funsters and some cheeky internet naughties. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 27: Aurality

Sun, 15 Jul 2018 14:00:00 +0100

When his subjects make outrageous claims, The Great Leader will break them down and make them look silly. This week, Steve Ferdinando reckons his ears are the best. Silly. There's also a Japanese gameshow, iambic pentameter, a pigeon on a train and the curious case of the stolen clouds. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 26: MAN ON!

Sun, 08 Jul 2018 14:00:00 +0100

Whether or not "it" comes home, The Important Broadcast will remain constant, unwavering and ever-present. It serves as an excellent source for observations on primate behavious and other knock about japes. Finally, it is a fountain of knowledge to drink from, splash around in, but most importantly to LEARN from. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 25: Oleaginous

Sun, 01 Jul 2018 14:00:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast Module 22: Boron (with James Ward)

Sun, 10 Jun 2018 14:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader only ever wants to educate. That is, apart from the times when there is 'beef', at which point he becomes the butcher. With Steve absent, (although you wouldn't know it, because he's still all over this podcast) a stupendous guest was invited to provide facts: Nice, cold, hard, lovely facts. There's also more peacocks, more bins & a stuffed lion. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 21: Ophthalmology

Sun, 03 Jun 2018 14:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader, although not angry, was disappointed by the remarks of some listeners following last week's Module. Today's edition should put all of that to bed. There's also some exciting documentary news and a story about a pig following a man home. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 20: Experience

Sun, 27 May 2018 14:30:00 +0100

Another week, another Important Broadcast Podcast milestone smashed into miniscule pieces.

Sun, 18 Mar 2018 15:00:00 +0100

The Great Leader thinks, therefore The Important Broadcast is.... In this, the 10th edition of the Broadcast - opinions are challenged, relationships are tested, curtains are lifted and roles are reversed. We learn many things that will NEED to be noted in your listener pads: Danny isn't (technically) here, Steve dreams about Nigel Farage and there is a baby called Donald. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 9: Maternalism

Sun, 11 Mar 2018 15:00:00 +0100

The Important Broadcast wouldn't be the beacon of truth and direction that it is were it not for Mothers. In this week's edition, The Great Leader pays deserved homage to all Mothers great and small.

Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Module 3: Existentialism (with Danny Robins)

Sun, 28 Jan 2018 15:00:00 +0100

The time is upon us for the third part of the Important Broadcast Podcast. Don't be alarmed. In this week's edition - we talk technology, mice and tattoos. We also welcomed Danny Robins, host of "Haunted" podcast to talk ghosts, apparitions and mystery. Try to remember at all times that listener posture is a key part of what we are trying to achieve here. I mean, sure; the podcast is a slightly more relaxed affair, but if you let standards slip then you're buying yourself a one way ticket to shoddy-town. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.
