Two Recent “Seriously” Podcast Episodes
The Seriously podcast feed from BBC Radio 4 is always worth subscribing to, and I particularly enjoyed a couple of recent episodes. Dehumidified starts with a seemingly small-scale scam selling fairly useless dehumidifiers to the unwary.

Christmas Day TV and Radio – Radio Times – 2023
Merry Christmas! Here’s the next of this year’s three-day bonanza of annotated Radio Times pages. You obviously could be streaming Rebel Moon on Netflix, but honestly, I’m not sure I’d bother. Reacher on Prime is better, but not as good as the first season. And my family don’t seem to be super-keen to watch either…

RAJAR Audio MIDAS Research – Autumn 2023

A reminder that MIDAS recontacts 2,410 previous RAJAR survey listeners to dive deeper into how they listen to digital audio.

Ken Bruce
For some, the news that Ken Bruce is leaving Radio 2 is akin to the ravens leaving the Tower of London. He’s been on the mid-morning show pretty much non-stop since 1986 – a time when the Radio 2 schedule started with Derek Jameson at breakfast, and following Ken came Jimmy Young, David Jacobs, Gloria…
