Surreal humour (also called surreal comedy, absurdist humour, or absurdist comedy) is a form of humour predicated on deliberate violations of causal reasoning, thus producing events and behaviours that are obviously illogical. Portrayals of surreal humour tend to involve bizarre juxtapositions, incongruity, non-sequiturs, irrational or absurd situations, and expressions of nonsense.[1] Surreal humour grew out of surrealism, a cultural movement developed in the 20th century by French and...

Ode to Salad Cream by Trilety He promised me lettuce crisp with crunch but gave me limp leaves instead. So I turned my tongue away from the steel reach of his fork only to be teased by the viscous glug of a squeeze of salad cream. Oh Salad Cream, how you drench the pink muscle of my mouth in savory fatness until I am - from knee to cheek - bedspread. Your egg yolk sunrise erupts in my mouth and the only sound in the kitchen is my ecstatic scream. Oh Salad Cream, you are beyond the sauce and...

I’m absolutely thrilled to bring some new (and old) features back to the pudcast for 2023. I’ve managed to, for the first time in recorded and recording history, secure James Clear’s Brother to appear on a podcast. I’ve found Toby hanging around behind the bins again, and invited him back in to record his Titular Tips. Even he’s in a reflective mood, providing some much-needed tinned meat advice for the tougher times ahead. And then, finally, I can’t forget to mention the superior production...

So we’re in that uncomfortable time of year where nothing happens. Christmas is over, but it isn’t 2023. We are left with strange questions about our understanding of life: * Is it still Christmas? * Can I still wear a Christmas jumper? * Is it still OK to watch Die Hard? The answers are: * No * No * No You may also be asking a fourth question: * Will The Wednesday Audio be released today? To which, of course, the answer is: * No. But you can have these adverts from last week. Get full...

So that’s it. It’s the end of the year. We’ve made it here once again. 2022 is nearly over. I’ve finished work for the year. All that’s left for me to do is record The Wednesday Audio and then loll. Loll, yeah. Not LOL. Not laugh out loud. That collection of letters is a tragedy of modern society. But loll: To move, stand, or recline in an indolent or relaxed manner. Lolling. Yeah. Have a loll and LOL and listen to this pudcast. Get full access to The Wednesday Audio at...

I hesitate to inform you that another week has limped on. You and I are now both 7 days closer to death than we were, well, 7 days ago. And to top off that news, Ian forgot to send me a pub quiz question. So there’s no reason to listen this week. At all. As you were.

So there’s this podcast. It’s been going for quite a while, but nobody really listens to it. It’s fabled that nobody ever really listened to it, but he continues to make it. The interesting question is: why? What drives this maverick podcaster to continue to create a podcast that nobody listens to? Some say it started as a joke. Some others say, a bet. A few others say, a promise. An obligation. What does this person say? The person who wrote this says it’s none of those things. The person...

This episode is going to get me banned from Substack and Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Enjoy it while you can. It’s part of an idea of what I’ll be doing for paid subscribers on a regular basis. So pay me now to hear more. I can’t keep these public because I’ll get the copyright trolls on me and I’ll get banned from the world. In fact, I’m taking a real risk posting this right here. A real risk. I hope you appreciate the risks I’m taking here to deliver you such an episode. I can’t say too much...

Nobody seems to have noticed that I didn’t release an episode yesterday. I don’t know how that makes me feel. It did make this episode somewhat melancholic in tone though. I hope you don’t enjoy it. Get full access to The Wednesday Audio at yeahwednesdays.substack.com/subscribe

I don’t want you to expand your reach or increase your engagement or nulify your negativity or ask good questions or get good answers or take proper notes or have a knowledge management system or become an influencer or utilise advanced engagement tactics or run paid ads to free stuff or run free ads for paid stuff. I just want you to listen. And enjoy yourself. And if you want to enjoy yourself…I suggest you go listen to a different pudcast. P.S. This piece I wrote the other day may also...

This is a story about a podcaster, and his podcast. It’s not an interesting story, admittedly. It’s an average story. It’s the type of story that you’d probably glance at, read the title, consider making yourself a cup of tea, and forget about. It’s a page 9 story. Not worthy enough to be close to the front of the magazine, but important enough not to be lost in the centre between the staples. This is a story about a podcaster, and his podcast. It’s the story of how that podcaster dies. But...

To receive other ad free versions of the podcast like this one, consider consuming this current advert to upgrade to a paid subscription One good thing—some may say the only thing—to come out of last week’s Bradiperiment was my desperation to increase my listeners who are willing to pay me for this podcast. To show you how well I treat my listeners who pay for this podcast, I thought I’d give you a preview of the ad-free version of this podcast. It’s totally ad-free. And you can experience...

They say collaborations are where the real magic is found. Stephen Merchant and Ricky Gervais.Morecambe and Wise.Tommy Cooper and Alcohol. Well, today I tried to bring about some of that magic. I worked with Alex’s brother on a fact-finding mission. Brad helped me truly understand where I have been going wrong with my podcast for the low flat fee of $1,000 dollars a month (minimum term 6 months). I truly feel this may be the beginning of something special. A new Craig. A more upbeat Craig. A...

This podcast episode is just like every other podcast episode. Not of this podcast, I’ll have you know, but it’s like every other podcast. See this podcast episode as a warning. As a reminder of what you could have had. As a big flashing siren to the rest of the podcasting world. This is what you are, and this is what this podcast is not. Apart from today, when it is that. It’s exactly that. And it’s disgusting. I’ve done this before. And I’m shamelessly doing it again, but better. Get...

I’ve been off work this week, so my week is all out of alignment. So were my chakras. So, I went to a spa. Unfotunately the spa day clashed with Wednesdays, but no matter. I came back with a renewed chakra alignment and a new found misunderstanding of peace. The following episode ensued. Get full access to The Wednesday Audio at yeahwednesdays.substack.com/subscribe

I’ve been listening to some of those podcast things for research for this audio file I release each Wednesday. They’re all a bit s**t aren’t they? Especially this one. They’re all either two blokes having a conversation, or two women having a conversation, or a bloke and a woman having a conversation, or two blokes and one woman having a conversation, or a mix of different people having different conversations about different topics. And you just don’t want to listen, do you? I can see why...

On advice of a very esteemed marketing peer, I’ve decided to ‘mix things up’ to ‘increase maximal percentile of engagement’. They told me I need to ‘explore new formats’ to ‘reach new audiences’ and ‘niche down to niche out’. They then said ‘short video is hot s**t right now’ and I should ‘explore the modern listener and viewer habits’, and they said I’d ‘probably be surprised that nobody listens to podcasts’ unless they’re ‘optimised for engagement with clear cut phonetic cues’. So. I mixed...
