TWiL 16 - Upriver Top Rankin

Mon, 6 Aug 2007 05:42:00 GMT

This show is part 2 of my trip upriver calling at the bridges on the way through. Lots of tourhistry (tourist history - geddit?) and interesting info.

I introduce the Parky's Picks book review - well, I've read a few good books with a London link recently and I was going to review one this time. Well, that one will have to wait as the one I am reading at the moment moved me to put it in the show before I have even finished it! You really must check out Rachel North's Out Of The Tunnel, available at all good bookshops or at Amazon. Watch the video directly below this posting for more information. Moving, sad, happy, distubing and funny - and all at the same time. I am struggling to put this book down.

Many thanks to Steven Crosby for suggesting our destination this week. We're in Mayfair this time, spending time looking in the shops, pubs and restaurants.

I'm thinking of going on location next time and doing another WhereTheHeckIsHe? Competition. Harder this time. Much Much Harder. What do you think? Was it fun or was it rubbish last time? Let me know eh?

Keep the emails coming in - I do answer all of them and is you want to Skype me just call Parkylondon!

This Week In London - Episode 2

Sun, 24 Dec 2006 16:07:00 GMT

Hi...

First of a big thanks to everyone who is tuning in to This Week in London. I'm having a lot of fun doing this and I hope you're enjoying it - please do contact me at thisweekinlondon@gmail.com if you have any stories of Life or Travel in London.

This time we're exploring Borough Market, the foodies heaven and associated pubs, restaurants and foody shops. Well worth a visit if you have time.

As we move into the Christmas Holiday itself I give a little history on the Christmas Tree in Traflagar Sqaure, where it came from and why. Also be on the look out for the New Year Fireworks display after the midnight bongs from the main bell in St. Stephens Tower at the Houses of Parliament aka Big Ben. FWIW - Big Ben ONLY refers to the bell, not the clock, not the tower....

I also talk about the Flickr stream I have on Flat Stan (just Google Flat Stan if you have no idea what this means) and his travels in London. You can find the stream here

Music this week sourced at the Podshow Music Network and provided courtesy of the Bands:

Satelite Dub with London has more Lights

and

The Bridge Gang with "London Sky Tonigh" demo0

Special thanks to Ed at Ed's Mixed Bag for playing the promo - cheers Ed. If you haven't already please do check out Ed's show at www.edsmixedbag.com

So, a Happy Christmas to everyone out there and Happy New Year too!

This Week In London - Episode 1

Sun, 10 Dec 2006 23:31:00 GMT

I am working on a new podcast and I thought I'd try it out on my long suffering Flashing12 audience. The new show is called This Week In London and is all about my favourite city, my home city, London...

I will be focussing on the place, the people, the events, the history and the odd stuff which make my favourite city what it is today.

Please do let me know what you think of this, I want to engage better (more) with my audience and try to give more back to the folks who have supported my Podcasting efforts, which, frankly, haven't been terribly frequent!

Send me an email to thisweekinlondon ----at----- gmail ----dot---- com..... and I will take your advice / ideas / offers of help and start a continuous improvement process with this show.

Direct Link to the Show

Music in this show is provided by:

Null Device with a track called "Walk In London - Acoustic Mix" - the have their own home page too

and

SingLadies with a track called "London Love" - they have a MySpace Account as well which is worth checking out.

I've got a temporary home at London.podshow.com which is where you'll find the RSS feed for it...

Here is the first show in what I hope will become a new sequence and hopefully a new feed (in time). I recorded it as a double ender with my buddy Karl Rotstan in New York and me in London over a noisy Skype connection. The sound quality is, um, "variable" but we're working on that.

I hope you enjoy it and look forward to getting your feedback at http://www.rotstan.com/blog.html which is Karl's blogpage or direct to me at flashing12@gmail.com

Enjoy

Sound Quality

flashing12@gmail.com — Sat, 24 Dec 2005 00:10:00 GMT

This sounded fine when i played it back through the rig earlier. It seems to have developed a little "squelch" somehow. Sorry about that - I'll double check the reasons for it and have them corrected in time for the next show...

flashing12@gmail.com — Sun, 6 Nov 2005 20:12:00 GMT

Gentle listeners... Janet, the GeekGirl, is lying in bed at the moment. She's not well poor thing. She lost her voice on Friday [note to self - tell story about conversation with VIsion Express next show] which was bade enough in that she couldn't boss anyone around but now all the energy has drained from her. Awww. So if anyone wants to send her a message that would be terribly well received! You can email her direct at geekgirluk [at] googlemail [dot] com TTFN Paul

Anyways this is an audience participation show - so lots to look forward to but lots of reasons to have to fiddle with it... Paul

Feel free to check out the others but please bear in mind that they are test runs (=crap)! Stories in this one are about the Ariane rocket blowing up a few years ago plus an internview with my own "Geek Girl", Janet. She's a near miss in the Flashing 12 stakes as this interview while we were on holiday shows! Music from Jammin Inc and Natalie Brown via the Podsafe Music Network. Thanks to the BBC and Twelfth Night for the start music - Music section taken from "Sequences" from the album "Live and let live". Enjoy. Well, at least keep your dinner down.

A lot better this time.
