    2022/01/05

    I'm Philip Holden and this is Ideas in Writing - the podcast where we talk to creative people about words - mostly from books that they have written and recently published... The guests bring along a word and so do I...if only I could rememnber that...

    In this episode I talk with Robin Ince - Live at the Oast Theatre in Tonbridge after he visited Mr Books Bookshop - about his new book, The Importance of Being Interested.

    Robin started out in standup, having done an English degree at Royal Holloway College. He then developed material based on science and on pseudo-science and launched his, now famous “Twelve Lessons and Carols” – originally for atheists (but now open to everyone).

    Of course Robin is best known for presenting The Infinite Monkey Cage with Professor Brian Cox but he's a very busy man – a writer and performer and having just completed his 100 bookshop tour. But he does so much more – most of it available through his Cosmic Shambles Network and you can check out any gigs (and Robin's blog) on his website. Robin is also on Twitter @robinince

  • Comedic/Intuition with David Barry

    Comedic/Intuition with David Barry
    2021/10/29

    I'm Philip Holden and this is Ideas in Writing - the podcast where we talk to creative people about words - all kinds of word - funny ones, sad ones and strange ones... The guests bring along a word and so do I...it's all downhill from there on...


    In this episode - the first face to face one of the series - I meet up with the fun David Barry who many of you will know as Frankie Abbott from the TV series (and film) Please Sir! which ran from 1969 to 1972 and led on to the Fenn Street Gang (1971-3) but David is also an accomplished writer.

    We talked about David's real name and his upbringing in London and how he got to work with the most famous power couple of the day - Laurence livier and Vivien Leigh. David chose the word intuition whilst I chose comedic (you'll have to make do with a link to the word 'comedy') because I was curious about how David learned to write for TV - at the feet of the masters Esmonde and Larbey no less. As ever, don't forget to check out the visual representation of the network of words emanating from those - by clicking on the links.

    CREDITS & links

     

    David’s book PleaseSir! The Official History is available from Mr Books bookshop or, you can go straight to this link to order online. David's crime stories which, as he explained, are between publishers should be available for online order - A Deadly Diversion and Each Man Kills for example. We can probably get copies of all these into Mr Books if you have any problems.

     

    His Mr Micawber Down Under is also well worth a read, especially if you're a Dickens fan and you can order it here or, again, just by asking Mr Books.

    Power/Integrity with Peter Oborne
    2021/04/02
    I'm Philip Holden and this is Ideas in Writing - the podcast where we talk to people about words and books and the shift, sly use of words in untruths and the books that shine a light on shadowy falsehood. The guests bring along a word and so do I...it's all downhill from there on...The guest this time is the journalist Peter Oborn whose book The Assault on Truth – Boris Johnson, Donald Trump and the Emergence of a New Moral Barbarism was published this year traces the origins of lying and catalogues the lies of the current Prime Minister. Particularly topical as it drops because of…well…pretty much everything emanating from 10 Downing Street.Peter brought along the work integrity for obvious reasons, whilst I brought the word power.We talked about how Peter got into journalism (after a couple of false starts) and how conservatism has changed – for the worse. As well as what we can do to resist the rise of the liars.Apologies that the sound set up isn’t the best in this episode. I’ll do my best to improve things for next time.Ideas in Writing is produced with the support of Mr Books Bookshop in Tonbridge - the home of inspiring, imaginative and intelligent books, gifts and conversation.

Emily Jones’ award winning book is Edmund burke and the Invention of Modern Conservatism and you can order it here whilst Jesse Norman’s book on Burke is available here. It’s surprisingly difficult to find writings by Michael Oakshott. His essay Rationalism in Politics and others is currently being considered for reprinting so keep an eye out here. The phrase ‘Gonzo journalism’ crops up in Fear and Loathing in las Vegas by Hunter S Thompson so you can get a flavour of that here and JP Kenyon’s book on the Popish Plot can be found here.
