8 – From Motown to Ed Sheeran

Available for over a year

Linking Motown with Ed Sheeran is simple, right? Pick a session musician or two, and the most direct route will reveal itself. So why are Steve Punt, Hugh Dennis and guest Mark Billingham invoking Wolverhampton Wanderers, the Savoy cabbage, the Wombles and trusses? Because this warm and witty podcast celebrates new and half-remembered trivia in a bid to link random places, people and things. Across the series, they’re joined by guests including Ken Cheng, Kiri Pritchard McLean, Isy Suttie and Marcus Brigstocke, on a scenic route which takes in Shampoo, The Gruffalo, Watford Gap Services and Yoghurt… on a bid to travel from “beer” to “eternity”. Written and hosted by Steve Punt and Hugh Dennis With Mark Billingham Produced by Victoria Lloyd Recorded at Maple St Creative Mixed by Jonathan Last A Listen production for BBC Radio 4
