Our BAFTA-Nominated friend, the very funny Tim Renkow helps us work out the meaning of 2006, when the crocodile hunter Steve Irwin was unexpectedly killed by a stingray, Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein was executed, 140 character social media giant, Twitter was created by someone, and a Jackson Pollock painting was the most expensive painting ever sold at auction to music mogul David Geffen - much to art critic Red Richardson's disapproval. Also we learn what body parts Bobby, Red and Tim would trade with an animal, Red learns the ancient martial art of Crab Manga and Tim teaches us what a wank battle as well as some basic biology that Bobby and Red question.Check out Tim's hilarious BBC BAFTA-Nominated "Jerk" on BBC iPlayer - https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0716m4xSign up now to our brand new Patreon for another episode with Tim Renkow this week as well as early access, bonus weekly episodes not available anywhere else, posters, cameo messages, free tickets to online shows and discounts to live shows and much more - https://www.patreon.com/theyearispodWhat obscure or significant events did we miss from the history of 2006?

Yesterday the audience was on its feet – more than once - to applaud the cast, the band and the design of Anything Goes at the Barbican Theatre in London. On Front Row today Samira Ahmed talks to Kathleen Marshall, the director and choreographer about the appeal of the show today, and to Sutton Foster, the American star making her UK debut as Reno Sweeney, who gets to sing some of Cole Porter's greatest songs including I Get a Kick Out of You which she has recorded especially for Front Row. Co-written by Tim Renkow and Shaun Pye, the BBC Three black-comedy series Jerk revolves around the character Tim who uses the fact that he has cerebral palsy to try and get away with anything. Tim Renkow joins us to discuss the new second series and representation of disability in television. It was announced at the end of last week that Scarlett Johansson is suing Disney for breach of contract over the Marvel film Black Widow, with its scaled-back cinema release. Rebecca Rubin from Variety in New York considers the case and whether there might be further fallout as streaming is now such a significant income-generator for the major studios. Presenter Samira Ahmed Producer Jerome Weatherald

There are 14.1m disabled people in the UK and yet the nation's largest minority is woefully underrepresented in the TV industry. Two landmark reports are about to be unveiled urging the sector to access the “untapped potential” of this group, talented people like Deaf and Disabled People in TV (DDPTV) founder Caroline O'Neill and Tim Renkow, the creator of BBC3 hit comedy Jerk.  Caroline spoke to Max Goldbart last week about DDPTV's Disability by Design report, which shows the distressing levels of discrimination and ableism faced by TV's disabled community and issues a wealth of recommendations for how this can be overcome. And later, Tim chats exclusively to Hannah Bowler about the second season of Roughcut TV's comedy and opportunities for disabled people both locally and across the pond. All that, plus a regular dose of ‘What We've Been Watchin'', on this week's Broadcast Newswrap.

And we're back. In the first B-Plot of 2021 the B-Plot Boys look at Se7en (1995) and the career killer that is Showgirls. They're joined by the very funny Tim Renkow, the most famous person to ever appear on the podcast. Find out why Lincoln wants to see Morgan Freeman in Showgirls why Sam is still wildly underestimating how much a murder would cost and what Tim thinks about Sam's pocket-watching.

Star of his own sitcom "Jerk" (BBC) and a gleefully discomforting stand-up, Tim Renkow makes his point with devastating wit. We talk about how people's exploitation of Tim's physical vulnerability has shaped his outlook and work, learn how his dispassion towards his audience's reaction makes him a stronger comic, and find out why he would rather be alone in a wood with a shotgun.Content warning: strong language and discussion of sexual abuse.Members of the Insiders Club can enjoy 20 mins of extra content with Tim giving us his analysis of the four types of Edinburgh fringe shows, precisely why he doesn't like award-winning shows, and what great idea he only tried saying on stage once...All of that, plus all the extras from every show which has them, exclusively available to members of the Insiders Club.

When we put three disabled comedians together round a picnic table we hadn’t banked on hearing one of the best disability love stories we’ve ever heard. We're a hard-bitten cynical bunch at Ouch sometimes but this was a beautiful moment from Spring Day about her relationship with BBC Three's one and only Jerk, Tim Renkow. The story packs even more of a punch when you find out about her history and how much fun they’ve been having as a couple ever since. Features the "catholic cure for stammering", body positivity and more in the podcast that does disability differently - almost like it's normal. With Jon Long and Aidan Greene. Presented by Kate Monaghan and Simon Minty, Produced by Emma Tracey and recorded at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2019.

After years on the circuit, American comedian Tim Renkow has just released his first TV series - Jerk. The BBC Three show follows a "heightened" version of Renkow, who has cerebral palsy. TV Tim is "too lazy" to sort out his own visa, so instead he plays on and uses his disability to mess with people and take advantage of every situation. Tim reveals to BBC Ouch how much truth was behind the sitcom, how he got The Soprano's actress Lorraine Bracco to play his mother and what it was like to have a fist-fight with fellow comedian and Britain's Got Talent winner, Lost Voice Guy, who also has cerebral palsy. Bashir Aziz, who has vitiligo, and Rachel Reynolds who has thousands of tumours on her body, talk about living with visible differences and what it was like to live together for 10 days in new Channel Five show, The House of Extraordinary People. Presented by Simon Minty and Kate Monaghan. Subscribe now in BBC Sounds or ask for us on your smart speaker by saying "play Ouch disability talk from the BBC".

Shoes - it’s a hot topic amongst disabled people. Buying them and wearing them can be a nightmare, especially if it means regularly wearing them out. Throughout the ages, shoes have been either practical or decorative but rarely both and we in the disabled community often have to adapt what’s on offer to suit our needs. So, why do so many of us have to pick function over fashion – and does having that choice really matter? BBC Ouch chats all things shoes to lifestyle and fashion YouTuber, Jessica Kellgren-Fozard, whose vintage style and taste for high heels often raises eyebrows in the context of her disabilities. Actor and comedian Tim Renkow also joins us in the studio. He has Cerebral Palsy but doesn’t wear shoes because, he says, they’re just not worth the hassle. Presented by Niamh Hughes with Beth Rose.

Why middle class comics were so shocked by Brexit. After an interrupted start with Copstick in camp in Kenya, back to our normal disjointed style - on the decline of British comedy clubs, the collapse of the Invisible Dot and Chatty Man Alan Carr; the rise of Ivan Brackenbury and Bill Bailey. Plus the Centre for Comedy Studies Research, a threat to break Tim Renkow’s legs, Stephen Bailey rejected by the BBC for being ‘working class’ and the annoying failed Referendum Remainers who moan endlessly but do nothing. John’s quote of the week: “Comedians are sort of out-of kilter with the real public. They’re in kilter with the people who go to comedy clubs (who) tend to be middle class. But they are out-of-kilter with the mass of voters, which is why Brexit was such a shock.” Copstick's quote of the week: “The Twiterati don’t like the working classes. Brexit was, by and large, a working class vote.” http://www.grouchyclub.co.uk You can also download this audio podcast from iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/grouchy-clubs-mostly-about/id977279883 John Fleming posts occasional blogs at: http://blog.thejohnfleming.com

Tim Renkow’s new BBC TV sitcom A Brief History of Tim - comedy critic Kate Copstick pitches herself for a role... With Mitch Benn and Jon Holmes sacked from "The Now Show", a plea for more comedy and less PC on BBC Radio. Plus Copstick spurns the live Grouchy Club in London for a mercy dash to Kenya on the rumour of “a demon drinking blood”. And how she became the voice of British Railways. Copstick's quotes of the week: “I don’t think diversity for diversity’s sake is ever a good idea - certainly not in comedy” + "Estonia has the best-looking women in the world” And, eventually, Copstick sings again. http://www.grouchyclub.co.uk You can also download this audio podcast from iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/grouchy-clubs-mostly-about/id977279883 John Fleming posts occasional blogs at: http://blog.thejohnfleming.com

Comedians’ careers: is it worth going to the Edinburgh Fringe? Which excellent Edinburgh venue’s press office was criticised? Richard Gadd’s shocking reaction to not winning an increasingly prestigious Malcolm Hardee Comedy Award. Plus Broadway Baby’s one-star review of a “quite creepy” comedian’s show. Tim Renkow’s brilliant online sitcom. Lorraine Bracco is not a town. Lynn Ruth Miller’s version of a soft shoe shuffle. And will comedians crowdfund to see critic Kate Copstick self-harm herself with a kebab skewer next year? Copstick’s quote of the week: “One of the worst things you can do is be a small show in a big venue.” http://www.grouchyclub.co.uk You can also download this audio podcast from iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/grouchy-clubs-mostly-about/id977279883 John Fleming posts occasional blogs at: http://blog.thejohnfleming.com
