Manchester Blog Awards - On BBC 5 Live Tonight
- 23 Oct 06, 05:06 PM
Those of you who were at the Manchester Blog Awards a week ago today will have noticed that I spent much of the evening wandering around with a large microphone and minidisc recorder.
I recorded the entire awards ceremony, which featured readings from The 43, who went on to win Blog of the Year, and The Airport Exile. I also managed to spend a few minutes speaking with the winner of the Personal Blog category, A Free Man in Preston, Kate "Manchizzle" Feld who organised the event, Craig McGinty and a handful of others.
It's just been confirmed that a good ten to 15 minutes of that audio will be broadcast on BBC Radio 5 Live's Pods and Blogs tonight (technically it will be Tuesday morning) between 2-3am. Unless you're like me and find yourself blogging away into the wee hours, you'll probably want to use the listen again feature that let's you - as it says on the tin - listen to the program again anytime during the next week. You'll find the link at the top of the Pods and Blogs blog.
Update: the audio from pods and blogs is here. The blog awards section of the program appears between 12.19 - 22.00 and includes readings from The 43 and A Free Man in Preston as well as an interview with Manchizzle who organised the event.

Thanks to the BBC for breaking the story about the Republican Candidate who threatened to deport Hispanics if they voted. I heard that story on BBC Five Live Up All Night

Nice edit. I hardly sound like an idiot at all.
Hope you are well, etc.

I can't be bothered with anything these days, but shrug. I just don't have anything to say recently. I haven't gotten much done recently. Nothing seems worth thinking about.
