Along the way, they discuss how important a performer he was to various groups, his amazing legacy in comedy, and his notable collaborations with Mel Brooks and Richard Prior.

The latest For Your Ears Only episode featuring new titles added to Calibre's collection this winter.

Hey, an Actor! caps off 2024 in 2025 (whoops) by looking at the Tomlinson award-winner for 2024 in 2023, however confusing that might be: Sir Ridley Scott. Subject to one or two thousand bad Geordie impressions by the host who doesn't live in the north east of England, The Brothers Wilson specifically review 1985 fantasy nonsense film Legend, as well as 2012 Alien franchise prequel nonsense Prometheus, before turning the spotlight on the man who directed Alien, Blade Runner, and House of Gucci. As an end of year special, your favorite features are included: outtakes, The Tomlinson Awards, and Christian's Casting Challenge. But the hosts also find time for firing a semi-regular character (and facing recriminations), Ian's memories of podcast reviews from 2012, and Pandy's research into how well AI really knows about the podcast. Listen in and enjoy. If you don't, the hosts may well be replaced by Michael Bell and Paul Salt.

It's the two-year anniversary of the History Behind News podcast. Given this news, we decided to look into the history behind podcasting. For example, how did podcasting become a thing? How and when did podcasting morph out of its super geeky & techy origins, into this huge, supercool, mainstream phenomenon? And how is a podcast different than, say, a radio program that's just uploaded onto the Internet and then called a podcast? And finally, what makes for a good podcast? To get answers to all these questions, I spoke with Dr. Martin Spinelli – Professor of Podcasting and Creative Media at the University of Sussex in Brighton, the United Kingdom. He is the lead editor of the Bloomsbury Podcast Studies book series, co-host and executive producer of the podcast For Your Ears Only, and writer and executive producer of the recently released adolescent emotional well-being sci-fi podcast drama, The Rez. His benchmark radio art series Radio Radioand LINEbreak are included in the permanent collection of the Museum of Television and Radio in New York. To learn more about Dr. Spinelli, you can visit his academic homepage. And here is an Amazon link to his book, Podcasting: The Audio Media Revolution, which we discuss in this episode. I hope you enjoy this episode. Adel Host of the History Behind News podcast HIGHLIGHTS: get future episode highlights in your inbox.
