The Old Fools

Ian Martin (writer: Veep), David Quantick (also writer: Veep) and guests. Sort of topical, cultural rants and conversation from the point of view of older people who still give a damn about the world around them. The inside pages of the broadsheets: Entertainment, broadcasting, nature, science, obituaries, lifestyle, environment, business, fashion, health. If it's got their goat, you'll know about it.

    9. Kate Moss; Poetry; Murdoch and Succession; Dick Van Dyke and Coldplay

    Ian Martin and David Quantick tear caustic lumps out of each other and the week's news stories - They're joined this week by novelist and screenwriter, Jenny Colgan. This week Ian takes aim at the 'poetry' that's become ubiquitous on railways station whiteboards, Jenny brings up Dick Van Dyke and Coldplay and David gets cross about nearly everything. It really is a sweaty hoot from soup to nuts. If you're reading this and enjoy the podcast please give us a rating and review if your pod provider allows that kind of thing.

    David Quantick (Veep, NME, more or less every newspaper) and Ian Martin (Veep; state pensioner) and this week's guest co-host, Miranda Sawyer tumble, swearing through a weeks of fetid news. As usual, the conversation sparks off in a multitude of anarchic, hilarious directions. News meets popular culture meets two old fools. A Giddy Goat production.
