Although this is one of AMT’s resting weeks, we wouldn’t leave you with only the sound of silence* to listen to. You can always hear us doing our regular radio gigs: Olly on LBC every weekday 1am-4am, me on BBC 5 Live’s Saturday Edition every weekend, or whenever you want in its subsequent incarnation as the podcast Let’s Talk About Tech.
Here’re some other noisy things for you:
In this month’s Sound Women podcast, Isy Suttie and Caroline Raphael let me peek under the petticoat of radio comedy:
Here’s the latest music podcast from Martin The Sound of the Ladies Man:
On Stand Up Tragedy‘s ‘Tragic Beginnings’, I talk about one of Britain’s most underwhelming military campaigns, with backing music from AMT jingleer Jay Foreman:
Also this week, I’ve been listening to:
• The Radio 4 documentary Mad About the Boy, about rabid teen pop fans; it’s available HERE (but only till Saturday, so don’t delay).
• Episode 100 of 99% Invisible, ‘Higher and Higher’.
• Simon Amstell on WTF.
• David Sedaris’s story about his sister’s suicide on This American Life ‘Day at the Beach’.
• Biba founder Barbara Hulanicki on Desert Island Discs.
And what’s been tickling your ears this week? Let us know in the comments.
Until next Thursday,
Helen

Answer Me This! Podcast

At the moment, I’m listening to episode 2 of Hardcore History’s WW1 series. Rather long, and heavy on the military stuff, but fascinating to see just how much war had moved on since Napoleon http://www.dancarlin.com//disp.php?page=hharchive
Am catching up on Richard Herring’s Warming Up podcast – short but sweet episodes. https://soundcloud.com/herring1967/
Also Simon Amstell on WTF; I bet Daniel Kitson listens to it with a smug grin and one hand down his trousers.
And finally, the Talking Balls podcast: https://soundcloud.com/talking-balls which is usually pretty interesting and funny, if you’re into just about any sport.
