Stewart Lee takes us into a world of life-sized chess pieces, alcohol-guzzling nuns and crucified naked bespectacled men. The story of British Surrealism began, not in Bohemian north London, but in a Birmingham suburb. Today, the tradition continues with Birmingham artist Cold War Steve, whose work is featured on the website. His detailed collages evoke the surrealist world of the original Birmingham Surrealists. The seminal moment for British Surrealism was the 1936 London International Surrealist Exhibition when Salvador Dali donned a diving suit and walked through Piccadilly. But art historian and critic Ruth Millington reveals that the actual crazy beating heart of British Surrealism had already begun. A Birmingham group of artists refused to take part in that Exhibition, viewing the other British artists chosen as ‘overnight surrealists'. The Birmingham group, including Conroy Maddox and John Melville, were the first and truest expression of the movement in the UK, meeting in the Kardohmah café in New Street and the Trocadero pub in Temple Street. Later joined by Emmy Bridgwater and zoologist Desmond Morris - who left a giant elephant skull in Broad Street - they frequented Maddox's house in Balsall Heath. Inside were life-size chess pieces and wallpaper handprinted by an adapted washing mangle. They held parties where communists, Caribbean immigrants and naked women in high heels smashed pottery underfoot. Activities included Maddox being crucified, naked and bespectacled while a nun drank from a two pint bottle of local brew Mitchell and Butler. Maddox wanted to replicate this in shop windows in Birmingham but the Council refused. Stewart Lee explores the creative explosion in the Surrealist court of Birmingham and the art it produced. Artwork above by Cold War Steve. A True Thought production for BBC Radio 4.

Hooray! We are celebrating the 100th episode of the Jesus Storybook Bible Podcast, and while we can't believe we're already at this milestone, we're honored to share the celebrations with a special guest host today, our friend, Ellie Holcomb. Ellie walks with us down memory lane as we visit some powerful episodes with guests who speak to God's never stopping, never giving up, unbreaking, always and forever love; including Amy Grant, Bishop Michael Curry, Jodi Benson, Michelle Hord, Aarti Sequeira, and the late and beloved pastor and writer, Tim Keller. Quotes “Isn't it so beautiful to learn and to rest in the knowledge that we are all part of God's story?” – Ellie Holcomb “When I walk into a situation and I want to be a part of it, I ask, ‘What do I already have?' I want to share what I have and I want to share it in a way of believing that a little bit can go a super long way in God's hands.” – Amy Grant “Love makes room and space for others to be. Because that's what love does.” – Bishop Michael Curry “This verse just spoke to my heart and spirit, and I truly believe it was God throwing me a lifeline: Job 13:15, ‘Though He slay me, yet will, I trust Him.' This verse became a battle cry for me.” – Michelle Hord “What I always wanted was that my relationship with God would be so real that it would just leak out of me… I think God has done that. I can't talk about hardly anything without talking about what God thinks about it.” – Aarti Sequeira “God can do extraordinary things through ordinary people who obey Him. If you can walk in obedience in something that's terribly uncomfortable, then let Him take it from there.” – Jodi Benson “If you are a Christian, you know that your relationship with God is impossible unless God forgives you. He doesn't make you repay your debt because your debt is far more than you could pay. And it's also true that if you do know you're forgiven by God, then you turn to other people who owe you, who have wronged you, and you're able to forgive them.” – Tim Keller Guest's Links Ellie Holcomb's Facebook Ellie Holcomb's Instagram Ellie Holcomb's Twitter Ellie Holcomb's Website Resources Mentioned in This Episode Amy Grant's Episode Part 1 Amy Grant's Episode Part 2 Bishop Michael Curry's Episode Jodi Benson's Episode Aarti Sequeira's Episode Michelle Hord's Episode Tim Keller's Episode Connect with Sally Lloyd-Jones Jesus Storybook Bible Facebook Jesus Storybook Bible Instagram Sally's website Sally's Facebook Sally's Instagram *Episode produced by Four Eyes Media*
It started with an obscure bit of colonial history, dating back to an unseasonably warm summer night in the mid-18th century.

Mid-Atlantic - conversations about US, UK and world politics
In this edition of Mid Atlantic, Roifield Brown discusses the aftermath of recent triple by-elections in Britain, which have been bad news for the Tories. Labour secured victories in Selby and Anstey, overturning a significant Tory majority, while the Liberal Democrats unseated the Conservatives in Somerton and Frome.The by-elections were triggered by Boris Johnson's resignation, and the Tories managed to hold on to his old seat in Uxbridge and South Ryslip with a reduced majority. These by-elections highlight UK voters' increasing tactical decision-making, leading to shifting fortunes for parties in different constituencies.The discussion delves into the significance of each by-election and their potential implications for Rishi Sunak and the Tories. While the results are bad for the Tories, Corey Bernard argues they are not as disastrous as predicted. The program also explores the impact of local issues on election outcomes, particularly in Uxbridge and South Ryslip.Additionally, the conversation touches upon the challenges of party cohesion within Labour, citing a mismatch between the National Labour outfit and regional mayors. Despite Labour's wins, the discussion raises questions about their ability to secure victories in traditional Conservative and blue wall seats.Overall, the by-election results suggest shifts in voter behavior and signal potential challenges for both major parties in future elections.

Susan Silver wrote two Top Ten Movies of the Week, feature films and pilots for her own sit-coms. She has appeared on TV talk shows such as Fox Good Day NY (5) , The Today Show (3), is a frequent radio guest on Boomer issues for the Growing Bolder radio program, Bill Bennett Show and others. She has a long running radio commentary on the NPR affiliate out of Connecticut called “Susan Says” on www.Robinhoodradio.com and ITunes. Profiled in TV Guide, Esquire and other publications, she has written OP-Ed pieces for The New York Times, articles for Los Angeles Magazine, Refinery 29 and had a long running column on newyorksocialdiary.com entitled “The Search For Mr. Adequate.” In a second career, she worked in Holocaust related organizations such as the Anti Defamation League, running their Speakers Bureau, and as a UN Observer for the Simon Wiesenthal Center. Her memoir, “Hot Pants in Hollywood: Sex, Secrets & Sitcoms was published in 2017. Hot Pants In Hollywood is a Show Biz memoir, and much more. It's a Baby Boomer's lifeon steroids. Susan Silver was one of the first female TV comedy writers with credits like The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Maude, Bob Newhart, among others. As the lyrics from the iconic Mary Tyler Moore Show said, "She made it after all!" From another Midwest town, Milwaukee, with all its Sixties' values and normalcy, Susan went on to fame and fortune in Hollywood, had a successful career as one of the first women in TV sitcoms, and reinvented herself in different prominent arenas in New York.Along the way, she "Searched for Mr. Adequate," her well received dating column, had many romantic adventures, loves and loss, and she's 'still here!' If you love 'Show Biz' and want to know what it's like behind the scenes, Hot Pants in Hollywood is very funny...sexy too!
Like the Sondheim song says, this trooper is, at age 90, "still here." She was born in Canada in 1933 and grew up with a marvelous knack for making faces and getting laughs. The then-19-year-old met the much older Phil Ford in Alaska while both were playing different clubs in 1952. She was a quick fill-in after his female partner accidentally broke her ankle. They married two years later and continued performing together in night clubs with Phil serving as the straight man. The plain-Jane, rubber-faced singer/comedienne with the prominent dimples and toothy grin had her customers alternately rolling in the aisles with her "chipmunk" routines and sobbing in their beers with heart-wrenching versions of torch songs. From then on Ford and Hines became a hot commodity in niteries, Las Vegas showrooms and on TV variety shows hosted by the likes of Ed Sullivan, Merv Griffin, Mike Douglas, Jimmy Dean and Johnny Carson. In 1965 it all culminated in the role of a lifetime for Mimi when she replaced Barbra Streisand in "Funny Girl" on Broadway in the role of entertainer Fanny Brice. The part of the famed Jewish torch singer/comedienne fit like a glove and Mimi stayed with the show for a healthy 18 months, putting her own indelible stamp on the role. She also recorded albums during this peak and went on to appear in acting parts on TV, including "Love, American Style" and, more recently, "Frasier." Surviving several personal and professional roadblocks over the past few decades, the indefatigable Mimi continues to headline in nightclubs, music halls and the touring stage, both here and abroad, reuniting on several occasions with Ford (who died in 2005 at age 85). More recent musicals have included "Sugar Babies," "Nite Club Confidential," "Sugar," "Pippin" and "Nunsense."
