I think by now I should have podcasted this show –
This edition of Outsider In features Resonance104.4fm vetenarian Dan Wilson.
Dan reluctantly appeared live as my guest on in the Resonance studio. Nonetheless we both saw it through.
I hope you can as well.
Dan Wilson created and hosted the wonderful Hellbore Shew and Epistaxis Time. He also gave me a paperback book on beer recipes he found on his way over to meet me.

It was a rallying cry, and in its wake pigs were strangled, barns were burned, and doh-si-dohs were essayed. How sweet the memory of those dances of my grandparents’ youth. I was not alive then of course, so I have no direct memory, but I recall, as an infant, sitting in a basket slung over one of grandpa’s bison, and he goading the beast along the lane, and telling me tales of his childhood in the Wenkenblatt, the strangled pigs and the burning barns and the doh-si-dohs.
This episode was recorded on the 23rd April 2009. A complete transcript of this episode can be found on Frank Key’s Hooting Yard website.

Episode 8: Help!
Get slimmer, learn about better bowling, phonetic punctuation, relaxation techniques, how to disco-dance like the professionals – these are just a few topics featured on the many self-help and instructional records released over the years.
Voice On Record is produced and presented by Sean Williams. Each episode features a selection of recordings of the human voice which have been preserved on vinyl. Historic events stand alongside esoteric guides to better bowling. Arid studio recordings are juxtaposed with location recordings rich with fascinating incidental sounds.

In this episode John and Nick take a topographical ramble through the pages of The Fringe of London by Gordon S. Maxwell published in 1925. They hold this book as being the holy text of suburban wayfarer.
