Danny Wallace's Important Broadcast

How on earth do you pronounce Donald Duck's middle name? Just ask Steve Ferdinando. This week, the sqaud marked Easter Sunday with a typically professional broadcast: Goldfish at a wedding, a peacock in a garden and all of the things that get you riled right up. You can also expect a spicy Dinner Winner and a brief Spanish lesson. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

Returning triumphantly from Austria, The Important Broadcast Sqaud hit the airwaves upbeat, ready and armed with a story about neolithic dogs. Have you ever wondered how watery a potato is? Wonder no more. Are you interested in how skiing differs from snowboarding? Get your fix here. All that plus a Dinner Winner drubbing and the worrying inclusion of listener's sensitive information. Please send...

The Great Leader bends the space-time continuum in order to service you, the listener, with your broadcast. Despite being in transit to Austria, the IBS stepped up and delivered nonetheless. Expect mimes, a disturbing story from Steve and national anthems aplenty. There's also some sausages and a fact about Tom Grennan! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Great Leader was rejoined by the nitwit this week. Fresh (but not too fresh, because jet-lag exists) off the plane from Columbia, Steve returned with offerings of high-culture and nonsese; but mostly nonsense. Expect seagull noises, tulip bulbs (DON'T EAT THEM) and all the "Bad Mother" stories you could ask for. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

Even The Great Leader is wrong sometimes. It happens. With one more week before Steve returns, the listeners were once again employed to fill the void. Alex from Woodbridge played a valiant round of Tell Me Something I Don't Know, and Simon from Essex became The Important Broadcast's very first "Platinum Listener". You can also expect a cameo appearance from Steve as he communicated his Columbian...

What do you do when your co-host goes on an unexpected holiday? You invite that guy who you know from Rent-a-Friend.com of course! This week, The Great Leader extended a warm welcome back to Jules as he returned for a second opportunity to "Get Into The Music". Expect a story about cheese, a fact about Mr Potato Head and a brief mention of the Hitler's: Not just the main one, but the other ones. ...

This week, The Important Broadcast flung it's doors open to a new friend! After speaking to him last week, Steve's latest chum came for a little visit to further discuss their blossoming relationship. Further to this, The Great Leader shared a story about a naked man and Steve got heavily into the notion of time travel. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

Immortal or invulnerable? We'll be the judge of that. This week, Steve was (somewhat forcefully) introduced to a new friend. The Great Leader also offers you tales of massage, salsa and welding. In addtion, please expect a hotly contested Dinner Winner and some senseless gossip. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

There you have it: 59 modules of The Important Broadcast Podcast before we finally mentioned "teats". This week, The Great Leader sent Steve to The Brit Awards to get some gossip. Did Steve succeed? Well.... What do you think? Dinner Winner returned after a controversial game last week and a German town was invaded by Smurfs. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Important Broadcast Podcast gives you more. More laughs, more facts and more evidence that there's very little point in listening to, frankly, anything else. This week, The Great Leader is dealt a culinary blow, Steve springs a law-based surprise and there's a good look at whether the listener has had their lunch. It's all need to know stuff! Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox....

Oh! What a lovely broadcast. This week The Great Leader smiled upon a senior listener with a generous gift and the world smiled with him. Steve didn't hold back when it came to his review of black and white awards-fest "Roma" and Joe forgot how old he is. It happens, doesn't it? DOESN'T IT?? As well as all this, get ready to meet Bigfoot and prepare to learn about caffeine, Polaroid pictures, skii...

Whilst Steve has got no money, he's got his strong beliefs. This week, The Great Leader gives his blessing for the return of Steve's film reviews. Strap in, it gets opinionated. Also, you know how much you love it when someone starts a conversation with; "I had a dream last night, where......." Yes: That happens too. All that plus a difficult decision, a misplaced accusation and some sizeable comp...

The Great Leader had cause to celebrate this week. 10 years to the day since the grand opening of The Baked Museum of Excellence? See you at the party! Further to this, Steve was praised for his athletic efforts, some men stole some botox and a woman married a duvet. Classic Important Broadcast. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

Time's a funny thing isn't it? Does it matter? You bet you're listening partner's backside it does! The Great Leader was disturbed this week by the presence of an astronomical anomaly. Steve made a factual error (now rectified) and Joe had his head in his hands. What a time to be alive. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The teachings were food heavy this week. Can you tell the future with asparagus? Can you open a restaurant in your house? Which dinner is better, meatballs or toast? The Great Leader will answer your silly questions with flair and ease. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

It's approaching a year to the day since The Great Leader brought The Important Broadcast back onto the airwaves. Today, it continued in typically magnificent form with new features, new sayings and new ideas about where honey comes from. This week's edition features ferries, a streaker, seasonal crimes and a microwave. Long may it continue. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk...

The Great Leader is pleased to bestow upon you this; a reward for all of your devotion until this point. A New Year's Day spectacular full of prediction, anticipation, forecast and expectation.

Greetings! Welcome to this special edition of The Important Broadcast Podcast. As the year draws to a close, please enjoy "The Best of The Bits You Didn't Hear". Ok, sure; if you're a regular listener to the podcast, then you might well have heard these bits, but what are you going to do? Some of the words that you hear in this podcast are completely new words. That is to say that they are newly r...

Greetings from the warm bosom of The Important Broadcast. May your days be merry or bright. At this time of year, we join together and make hard to substantiate claims about ridiculous abilities that we have.... Well Steve does anyway. Can he really identify the flavour of crisp by touch alone??? Expect Christmas facts, Christmas Dinners and the final word on the Driving Home For Christmas conundr...

Is it ever too early to start getting into the yuletide spirit? The Great Leader thinks that yes, it can be too early. Not to worry; this week's show was a fairly Christmas-heavy zone nonetheless. Expect a big mistake from Steve, the time that Christian Bale met Donald Trump, a (verified) fact about cows and a welcome return from Bill Turnbull as The Important Documentaries continue! Please send y...

The Great Leader invites listeners (senior and junior alike) onto The Broadcast with caution. He does so to appear approachable, warm and affable. This week, it was decreed that Senior Listener Ben should be allowed to spend some time experiencing The Broadcast first hand, owing to his absent-minded Mother's actions, which caused him to miss the beginning of The Broadcast. Following this, Ben and...

Greetings and Get Into the Music to you.  With a new producer at the helm while the esteemed Joe Attewell is on his island retreat, we find out how the Great Leader and his Underling Steve, cope with change. As you would you expect, Steve revolts with his own new hastily invented feature.  Plus, a deep analysis, almost bordering on spoken dissertation, of Chris Rea's travel plans for Christmas, a...

The Great Leader goes to great lengths to ensure that a toxic work environment is avoided at all costs. Steve ignores these efforts and makes it difficult for everyone. This week, you can expect some easy-to-digest “water cooler chat”, some obnoxious passengers on a train and some awards ceremony beef. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.

The Great Leader is a skilled user of words; he knows LOADS of them. Steve has a fairly good grasp on words, but isn’t against making them up from time to time. People are different, and that’s ok. In this week’s edition, you should expect horses, a forgotten birthday, some art work (v. exciting) and a fact about Carly Simon’s Dad. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you...

How do you relax and unwind? What’s your favourite colour? What on earth is that jewellery modelled on!? Take The Important Broadcast into your life and let it settle in. The Great Leader offers you stories of dolls, Ewoks, silences & squirrels. Sit back. Relax. Please send your listener comments to Danny@radiox.co.uk Thank you.
