Our favourite Podcast, Tyler Adams’ Goon Pod, featured an interview this week with the GSPS member and luminary of time almost immemorial, Chris Smith.
Chris described at length how the Goon Show Preservation Society developed from humble beginnings and told stories of some highlights of GSPS meetings, including appearances by Spike Milligan, Harry Secombe, Michael Bentine. It’s a great listen, especially for whipper-snapper, Johnny-come-lately members like your humble Website Charlie here.
Goon Pod is available from all the usual podcast sources, including the feed below.
Trailer: Episode Number Nine – Goon Pod
Coming soon! A new monthly podcast where we examine the ninth episode of classic – and not-so-classic – British sitcoms to see what it represents and tells us about the series as a whole. https://open.spotify.com/show/6XUWFZTUFZTrxGZZ9buOp3By the ninth episode most sitcoms have got into their stride and the audience at home have got to know the different characters; the sit is well-enough established and the com is strong enough that viewers are engaged and entertained. Well, that’s the theory anyway.Episode one is out next week where Tyler Adams & Chris Diamond examine Open All Hours!
If the weeks have moved on and the episode with Chris has moved down the list, you can get to it directly through this link.
