RADIO: On yer bike with Joseph Lawrenson

Joe Lawrenson and Laurie Havelock

We welcome the inimitable Joseph Lawrenson, keyboard-wizard supremo and in possession of a lovely face, into the Shoreditch Radio studio to chat his big alternate plans to run cycle tours in Europe and maybe run some deliveroo action on the side. Sounds pretty great, right?

After a few weeks of music-only shows we’re happy to have a guest back in the Shoreditch Radio studios, and it’s only David Robinson, musician supreme, who’s keeping us company this time!

Dave talks about his plan B – hosting his own chat show – and the unlikely series of events that landed him at that answer. He’s also got a few tips for Paddy and Laurie to take on board with their presenting…

RADIO – Building Boogie Bridges with Benjamin Bridger

Benjamin Bridger

Paddy went to Edinburgh for this edition of What’s Your Plan B? so we flew in a special comedian guest – it’s Benjamin Bridger, stand-up and fellow Shoreditch Radio presenter! Join us as we chat about his plan B (which is to wander the earth and start afresh in a new, exotic location) and touch on some hip-hop greats, the magic of magicians and why Mr Tumble IS NOT OK. Ben really wanted me to stress that point.

Listen below or at mixcloud on this handy URL: https://www.mixcloud.com/WhatsYourPlanB/benjamin-bridger-whats-your-plan-b/

Paddy and Laurie also did a music special show about artists that maybe should have had a Plan B – aka died or stopped making music WAY too early . You can listen below or right here:

RADIO – A plan B for Rob Sell

The beats keep groovin’ over at Shoreditch Radio – and, more importantly, they’re still letting us idiots hang around and interview people. Laurie and Paddifer are joined by musician (and maybe magician) Rob Sell, better known as part of SLKY and collaborator with Rudimental and China Moses. He reveals how his plan B would be…to customise motorbikes! Wowee! Whizzo! Zoom! And other fast noises.

Don’t forget you can join us LIVE every Friday on http://www.shoreditchradio.co.uk at 12PM for the latest episode, or find the whole archive on Mixcloud.

Paddy & Laurie chat GoT nonsense on the Throneroom Podcast

Hello my little Podbeans,

My, how you’ve all grown! Don’t you look lovely? Would you like a little visit from the Podshambles Inc. Watering Can? I bet you would.

Well thirst no longer, my lovelies: here’s a little taste of watery goodness courtesy of the good folks over at the Throneroom Podcast. We were invited by the excellent Rachel Parris, comedian supreme and Thronecast host, to go and mull over the latest episode of Game of Thrones (I dunno if you’ve heard of it but it’s a little show with Peter Dinklage and dragons and someone called Kelly C?), “No-One”. We shan’t spoil anything in a blog post but it’s one where that girl does the really impressive thing and a bloke comes back to do some killing and crimefighting duo Thoros ‘n’ Beric show up again – so naturally we’ve got loads to say.

There are myriad ways to listen: number one is on the Soap website here.

Number two is subscribing to the podcast on iTunes – and why the heck wouldn’t you? Rachel has a great new guest on every week including ShamblePal John Henry Falle, so if you’re a Game of Thrones (or Game of Goats) fan, you should get that medieval goodness in your ear-holes every week.

Stay tuned for PODSHAMBLES SEASON 3: THE MOVIE WITH GUNS AND BEARS, coming very very soon…

We’re on the radio!

It’s finally happened – Paddy and Laurie have been permitted onto the ACTUAL AIRWAVES! We’ve been hosting a show for a few weeks on the mighty Shoreditch Radio, the trendy person’s station of choice, called WHAT’S YOUR PLAN B?, a bi-weekly interview show where we ask hapless guests what they’d do if they didn’t do what they did.

Or – what’s their plan B? You see? It all works in the end.

We cheated a bit with our first episode and got the wonderful, sexy PADDY GERVERS (you may know him from a thing called Podshambles) to tell us about how he was almost a MUSICIAN!

Listen to the first episode below on Mixcloud, or tune in LIVE on Shoreditch Radio every Friday at 12pm.
