Danny Wallace's Important Broadcast

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.

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.

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.

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??’.

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'.

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.

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.

Steve revealed an unexpected ambition this week, much to the amusement of his colleagues. There was talk of frightening tech mysteries, monsters, trains from Billericay and some homework that The Great Leader ended up doing for nothing.

Rumours have swirled around the internet and it's all eyes and ears on The Great Leader, to see how much he'll say... Plus, Steve shares some unconvincing facts and the culinary based, 12:30pm tradition returned...

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.

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.

The Great Leader loves you. He respects you. However, that doesn't mean he doesn't expect an awful lot from you. This week, Steve went on a team building exercise that sent people to sleep and your leader was fixated on an unusual presence in the studio.

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.

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."

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

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.

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.

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.

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."
