Two Voices Radio Podcast

This week the Two Voices discuss “Corona virus is OVER” or you’d think so by looking at Bournemouth beach. As a nation obsessed with the weather we ask why forecasts are so inaccurate. Haircuts are back… we discuss if less talking in barber’s chair is a good thing. Plus… cinemas are re-opening. Nick hasn’t been since 2007 so he’s not rushing back. Andy’s TV recommendation for your viewing pleasure...

This week we are back together and discuss how much bread we are making (and eating). Andy made us eat pease pudding… a strange… but tasty ancient tinned foodstuff! We talk about how coal hasn’t been burnt in UK power stations for over 60 days… the longest time ever. We also make two recommendations… Nick suggests a great YouTuber who makes bread making easy with no kneading required “Artisan brea...

The Two Voices start by reviewing ITV’s "Play your cards right". Now it’s aired we can tell you what it was like! The next show is our favourite… "The Price is Right". With all the “Come on down” running we question how sturdy studio seating is! Away from gameshows, We discuss how wildlife has come into our lives during lockdown. More birds and better flowers. “Springwatch” is back on air. Plus Th...

This week…we couldn’t avoid a mention of Dominic Cummings (& his goings). Andy tells as about “The Archers” in lockdown & a fan-site Zoom meeting he was involved in. Nick brings us a surprising radio find called “Slow Radio”. Plus… as you know The Two Voices are fans of old gameshows. So they’re both looking forward to Alan Carr’s Epic Gameshow. The Archers fan site we mention is dumteedum.com Get...

Nick and Andy are back together (socially distancing) for a walk in the countryside. They consider the weirdness of lockdown. They talk about BBC Gardeners' World and Nigel the dog. We like the show… but the presentation style is very slow and they seem to be filling it with rehashed features & viewers’ videos. We’re not convinced about this! Plus... we talk about the benefits of walking as we mak...

We talk more about MightyMKL (Michael) the airline pilot with his wonderful YouTube videos. It opens up a discussion about the whole concept of flying. We look at the Eurovision Song Contest that'll be somewhat different this year. Plus... we discuss repairing appliances or should we just throw them away? This leads us to the fascinatingly popular BBC TV show - The Repair Shop. If you enjoy our po...

Nick and Andy ask why younger people are using instant pancake mix... adding more plastic to the environment. Nick says pancakes are for all year round. Andy makes the perfect omlette. (Our show has turned very local radio!) Andy's horrified that Gregg's branches are turning up in Asda! Andy also gets narked by places serving chips as part of a breakfast which leads us onto buffets and Mr Whippy i...

We discuss lots of TV this week, starting with a wonderful TV series "The Trial of Christine Keeler".  It's an excellent BBC TV series. It gets us thinking about other BBC dramas.  We are surprised Holby and Casualty are still going.  Both hospital dramas never seem to run out of obvious accidents and incidents! Our friend Luke tells us about spending just £20 on a new bed.  We're shocked! Just 20...

This week we ask why do people pick certain jobs... accountants, dentists, funeral directors. We also ask why do people become Members of Parliament. We look at MP Tracy Brabin who received abuse for the dress she was wearing. Plus... singing sensation Madonna overruns on her London theatre show and finds the curtain comes down on her!

Old “Top of the pops”. Big breakfast in the morning. Opal Fruits are coming back. We lament old products from the past. Nick needs to get a new passport… which gets us thinking about the cost of things from the past compared to now. We talk about the High Street of the year and what makes a good High Street & what shops will always buck the trend of a recession. Plus cashless businesses… are they...

This week… dental pain… Nick has it but won’t dwell on it! Cardigans are now all the rage (apparently) with men. Tesco are ditching plastic wrap on multipacks of cans. Is the plastic tax working or are people just paying for higher quality bags? Asda are trialling stores where you take you own empty containers along. Luke tells us how hard he’s working at University (we don’t believe him). We disc...

Our friend Luke shares his views on the Christmas TV. We catch up on all the gossip. We are ambivalent about Harry and Megan's announcement. Andy is horrified about a woman spending £4000 on a holiday which then goes wrong! Nick tells us about some ridiculous new gadgets launched at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas including a robot salad maker! We extol the virtues of holidaying in your...

New Year and back to watching our weight. It seems the 10,000 steps is a waste of time. Andy tells us how a woman at his slimming group photographs her boobs! We ask who likes Panettone? No-one apparently. Marks & Spencers reveal poor trading results. We tell them why it happened. Nick extolls the virtues of his new coffee pod machine. Of course we talk about Vegan January in the UK and warn how a...

Andy gets narked by the word “Fresh”. We talk Avanti West Coast Trains who’ve taken over from Virgin. Nick would like a carriage at home. Andy tells us about Skipwith Station where you can stay in old railway carriages. Luke tells us about TV to look out for. Andy’s been to the Sky News Centre. We pick over frozen food. Plus… Nick asks about auctions… have you ever been to one? Finally… quiet shop...

There’s more apples and onions talk. We then discuss Coldplay and the mixed views the band generates… but they're ideal for telephone hold music! Then we review some classic American game shows we found over Christmas including Card Sharks, and Concentration. We are amazed how enthusiastic American contestants are. If you are listening from outside the UK, we wonder what British TV do you watch? E...

In this special podcast Andy talks to Ren Behan, a published cookery writer, finding out what it takes to publish a cook book, her inspiration, and how her legal training gave some useful transferrable skills.

A Christmas Bonus Podcast. This is a cut down of our Christmas Special Radio Show for Radio LaB 97.1FM. Join Nick, Andy and Luke as they discuss the dreary TV offerings on UK TV. There's a music quiz. Nick and Andy's music knowledge is shocking! Plus a round up of the best mince pies and calorific coffee. Merry Christmas from The Two Voices!

We continue our review of retailers in London's West End. There's Wholefoods. We think it's the nice lighting that attracts people in. Dutch store HEMA is a favourite. We look at Christmas treats. Also... We discuss TV news reading. Mary Nightingale puts her glasses ON at the end rather than during the news. Thankfully ITV has dropped the all knowing nod-winking news, but the BBC continues the sta...

This week it’s Bleak House. It’s been Andy’s birthday (& was still 8 week’s from Christmas when we recorded this show.) He’s very curmudgeonly about Christmas. “Less texting and more looking” is this week’s phrase. We discuss face and hand cream and how it can vary so much in price. Andy sticks with Nivea! We discuss market research and excess packaging. Plus… we’ve visited John Lewis and Selfridg...
