Collings and Herrin Podcast 137, belated, comes from the Bristol Old Vic Jam festival. Recorded in front of a patient and helpful audience at the Studio, not the main theatre, because we were 'in the round' we opted to move around, a quarter at a time, every 15 minute, so as to spread ourselves out over the full circle of the audience. It was a lovely audience, a real living 'hive mind' Wikipedia - whose knowledge actually stretched to a man called John explaining the answer to Andrew's cryptic cross word clue (after the podcast), and man we called London Irish explaining everything else, including rugby. We had fun with the smiling San Diego hippo, Paul the octopus, the Guardian's arcane Paul The Octopus headline, Richard's insistence on imagining Tony Blair's signature on Cherie Blair's t**s, the actual derivation of 'Bristol Jam' and the unexpected arrival of an actual Bristol astronaut. It's all great fun. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
