**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. Plus, a mysterious ticking noise in Wallace Towers and lots of talk about peas. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Tom & Pizza. Thank you.

The Broadcast takes a forensic and fond look at the world of celebrity siblings this week, with Peter Andre's brother taking a lot of the limelight. Plus, Steve tries to remember whether or not he's met Taylor Swift and Dinner Winner returns!! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Odie. Thank you.

Will the saga ever end? Will the nation ever be reunited with its beloved Dinner Winner? This week may hold the answer. Steve sought "legal advice" and the team were not only "welcome to come" but positively INVITED to an event. Plus: Dog problems, Crystal Palace and The Great Leader's return to front line security.

You know that you can trust your Great Leader, right? So when he says he won't be angry, then that must be what he means. This week, the fallout from Dinner Winner-gate continued and a familiar feature returned. Plus Ikea meatballs on one (just one) chair.

The Important Broadcast has seen its fair share of controversy and scandal over the years. The Great Leader wouldn't be doing his job if it wasn't consistently a very difficult listen. However, this week, things reached boiling point in a revelation that could change the face The Broadcast as we know it. Strap in, sit back and brace yourself (in the foetal position). This is big. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Leo, Lynsey & Jack. Thank you.

This week, The Important Broadcast Squad try out a silly thing that's supposed to be rubbish, but it sort of works! Plus, a BRAND NEW feature for 2022, that's nothing like you've ever heard! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is (retrospectively) for Michael Dwyer Thank you.

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. In this somewhat seasonal edition, music fandom is tested, facts are exchanged and a crow loses the trust of those around it... So it's pretty much a usual show, right? Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

'Tis your seasonal broadcast and all through the house... THERE SHOULD BE SILENCE. The Great Leader allows small moments of levity in an otherwise serious broadcast, to allow for your yuletide excitement. This week, there are shoe spiders, the Grand Final of Dinner Winner 2021 and a welcome return of Paul Hollywood, 55. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Isobel (not Steve) Thank you.

Yes, apparently that's how you spell "sass". It's not a word you write very often, is it? The Broadcast sparkled today, like a star atop a brilliant tree - but then, it always does. Steve had some wise words, The Great Leader had wiser ones and it all culminates in a TENSE Dinner Winner. Enjoy. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

Ready yourselves, The Great Leader is back once again with a bountiful Important Broadcast that will teach you everything you need to know.

In a hearty and well-proportioned broadcast this week, The Great Leader dispenses wisdom like he's handing out candy. How does Google really work? What kind of sculpture would communicate road safety and when it comes to soup, which colour is best? Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Sean. Thank you.

That's 200 then! You must have learned an incredible amount by now, so well done.

This is your 200th module. That is all. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Rohan. Thank you.

It was an occasion like no other this week, but that's mainly because it wasn't forgotten about this time! The Great Leader's birthday was marked the way that it should have been last year.... And the year before that.... And, indeed, the year before that. There were messages galore, some essential education, many lovely emails and one in particular that caused some brief confusion! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Gemma and Lyra. Thank you.

Your Great Leader maintained a dignified and fruitful broadcast this week and taught you everything you need to know, for now, at least. Before it ends, this episode touches upon clowns, candy floss, literature, a hangover and beef. Get it together and enjoy.

The I.B.S heartily apologises for the lack of contact last week. The Great Leader was taken ill. This will not happen again. All returned to normal this week, though, and much was learned. What's a war car? What's a cat war? What do the Spanish eat? As usual, you'll find out. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk This weeks podcast is for Natalie. Thank you.

Have a guess at how many state-appointed wizards there are in the world... Now, remember your answer and see if you got it right in this weeks module!!

The IBS returned to full strength with the return of Steve Ferdinando, who for reasons which were unclear, was not running the London Marathon. Predictably, he brought stories of misfortune and woe and they were enjoyed by all, not least, by The Great Leader.
