"Many, MANY times." 😂 My pandemic activity was taking a tour of American radio shows, and this year it's led to a lot of Hancock, Navy Lark, Beyond Our Ken, Round the Horne, Men from the Ministry, etc. My gosh, Kenneth Williams was a popular dude. What I'm dying to find are more Band Waggons, which seem to be rare. Arthur Askey is now my absolute fav. Great podcast, kids!
OMG wonderful program! Thank you so much. I'm an anglophilic American who was given the gift of RTH by the algods. I agree, they survive a back to back listen in ways that even the Goons don't. One minor point, I would argue that Julian and Sandy exposed and familiarized many with Polari, but J&S' place today is not to be dismissed. Now that popular usage has waned almost to extinction, J&S provide an immense value in glimpsing Polari's usage and context while it was still needed. Arguably the usage on a radio program with a listenership of 15M brought it out of the closet!
I’m just too young to remember this first time around, but discovered RTH about 20 years ago. Usually lots of RTH to find on UA-cam and also often on Sounds.
