by Jerome K. Jerome

~~17,99€~~ 16,19€ 10% OFF

 'Life is a thing to be lived, not spent; to be faced, not ordered. Life is not a game of chess, the victory to the most knowing; it is a game of cards, one's hand by skill to be made the best of.' The follow up to the popular Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow is another hilarious compendium of whimsical essays from the iconic humourist Jerome K. Jerome. Published in 1898, Second Thoughts of an Idle Fellow features twelve comedic essays that effortlessly blend humour with philosophical enquiry. Vibrant and lively, Jerome's writing offers amusing meditations on some of life's most trivial endeavours. Spanning everything from indecisiveness and keeping up appearances, to avoiding unsolicited advice and romance, these witty musings gently poke fun at the pressures of societal expectation with profound insight. The result is a timeless and endlessly relatable collection that feels just as relevant now as it did over one hundred years ago. Jerome K. Jerome (1859 - 1927) was an English author and actor. Renowned for his comic works, he is best known for the hilarious travelogue, Three Men in a Boat. A prolific writer and admirer of the theatre, he penned several novels, essays and plays throughout his life.

 'It is in our faults and failings, not in our virtues, that we touch one another and find sympathy. We differ widely enough in our nobler qualities. It is in our follies that we are at one.' Jerome K. Jerome's second ever published work, Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow is a rollicking collection of hilarious essays that established the writer of one of the most talented humorists of his day. First serialised in 1886, Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow takes the reader through a series of eccentric takes on love, memory, shyness, babies, food, the weather, the world at large and so much more. Brimming with personal anecdotes and comically perceptive commentary, Jerome's musings invite the reader to laugh at the absurdities of society and human nature. Written with the same witty flair and whimsy found in Jerome's renowned Three Men in a Boat, this compendium of essays is largely considered one of his finest works. Now given a new lease of life in this unabridged recording, Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow is essential reading for those who enjoy the entertaining writings of Jerome - which resonate still today.

Papal Emulsification - The Sanctified Viscosity Of Frank And Grease

by Otto Handley

~~41,37€~~ 37,23€ 10% OFF

 This is the story of a theological conflict concerning the concepts of "grace" versus "grease." The "cult of Frank," a religious movement advocating the salvific potential of viscosity, frying, and culinary lubrication is gaining many converts. The story opens with a sermon by Father Anselm Loosespring, a Frankite advocate, who promotes "holy grease" as essential for faith, spirituality, and combating Frank's opponent, the Adversarial Tobacconist, Runciman. The major opponent of the message and practices of Frank is the Vatican. Pope Blatantly III attempts to suppress the Frankite heresy through bureaucratic measures, counter-propaganda, and eventually claims papal ownership of all metaphysical grease under Canon Law 888B. His campaign is bolstered by a suggestion by scholar Monsignor Monsignorson that grace and grease share a common lexical root. The Pope also engages an assassin, Annibale Urkleson, to eliminate Frank and his apostle Glen. This diabolic plan fails when Urkleson is converted from his fell purpose by Cheryl, one of Frank's disciples. The Vatican's regulatory efforts eventually fail when a "Great Grease Schism" culminates in Rome being flooded by "holy viscosity."

 The complete second collection of the quiz show where a team of three University students take on a team of three of their professors, hosted by Steve Punt (star of BBC Radio 4's The Now Show and the brains behind Horrible Histories), including the complete final series 15.The show is recorded on location at a different University each week, and pits three Undergraduates against three of their Professors in this fresh take on an academic quiz. The General Knowledge rounds include a quickfire bell-and-buzzer finale and the 'Highbrow & Lowbrow' round is cunningly devised to test not only the students' knowledge of history, art, literature and politics, but also their Professors' awareness of TV, music and sport. Meanwhile there are the three Specialist Subject rounds, in which students take on their Professors in their own subjects, and where we find out whether the students have actually been awake during lectures...In the eighth series the universities are Newcastle, Hertfordshire, Dundee, Merton College Oxford, Sheffield and Brunel. Questions range from Bach and benzene rings to Gnasher from The Beano and why eating detergent is wrong.In the ninth series the universities are Royal Holloway, Aberdeen, Plymouth, St Catharine's College Cambridge, Brighton, and Oxford Brookes. We'll hear about Lego, Scottish Gaelic fishing jargon and horse teeth via Jack Straw, James Bond and Dick Dastardly.In the tenth series the universities are Bournemouth, Imperial College, Reading, Durham, Ulster, and Mansfield College Oxford. Questions range from sarcophagi to cocktail ingredients to Jack Reacher, with a bit of Tristram Shandy thrown in.In the eleventh series the universities are Southampton, Cumbria, Brasenose College Oxford, Anglia Ruskin, Northampton, and Nottingham Trent. Subjects include brothels, bats and robbing a bank, plus there's a chance to brush up on Plato, piercings, and postage.In the twelfth series the universities are UCL, Leeds Beckett, Gonville & Caius College Cambridge, Warwick, Bangor, and Lancaster. Questions range from the isotropy of the universe and Kartvelian Languages to Yellow Submarines and a song about sausage rolls.In the thirteenth series the universities are Exeter, Strathclyde, Somerville College Oxford, Keele, King's College London, and Portsmouth. Subjects include a giant spider, Kate Winslet, and why it's no longer illegal to commit champerty. Also, there's your chance to hear the most-played piece of music ever.In the fourteenth series the universities are Leicester, St Andrews, Loughborough, Falmouth, Robinson College Cambridge, and UEA. We'll meet a five-legged sheep and a Belgian biscuit, and discover how to luff a jib, how to deconstruct a dodecagon, and the one thing Hannibal Lecter really shouldn't eat...In the fifteenth series the universities are Bristol, Queen Mary London, University of Kent, Worcester College Oxford, Manchester Metropolitan University and more. Specialist subjects include Environmental Science, Drama, and History, so naturally we'll be discussing Boron/Calcium pH proxy analysis, Noel Coward's wartime satire and St Cuthbert's A-level results. All this and the world's hottest chili pepper to boot. If not to eat.Hosted by Steve PuntDevised & produced by David TylerFirst broadcast 25 June 2018 - 19 October 2025A Pozzitive Production for BBC Radio 4(c)2025 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.

Your Mum - A Bbc Radio Stand-Up Comedy

by Laura Smyth

~~12,89€~~ 11,60€ 10% OFF

 A gorgeous and upbeat show all about mums, plus Laura Smyth's award-winning Radio 4 special I Don't Know What To SayAward-winning comedian Laura Smyth sits down with some hilarious guests to find out about their mums. In the heartfelt Your Mum Laura invites you to explore the many faces of 'motherhood'. Grilled with such questions as how did your mum respond to your first relationship? What made her blood truly boil? What made her most proud? Delivered with Laura's signature warm, engaging and infectious style this show will have you in stitches. With a star-studded range of guests, including Jo Brand, Russell Kane, Helen Bauer, Janine Harouni and Arlene Philips, join Laura for a nostalgic, shameless, cathartic ride that asks what (if anything) our dear old mums have taught us...This brilliant listen comes with a bonus episode of Laura's award-winning special I Don't Know What To Say. When she was diagnosed with breast cancer she was blown away (and highly amused) at how poorly many around her responded to the news. From pulling the wrong face, to offering medical advice sourced on YouTube we tend to put our foot in it. Laura asks why it is so difficult to say the right thing when trying to support loved ones and speaks with psychotherapist Philippa Perry to get an expert opinion. There may not be a perfect solution or ideal response, but can we all be better at knowing what to say?Cast and creditsYour MumWritten and performed by Laura SmythStarring Janine Harouni, Russell Kane, Jess Fostekew, Bobby Mair, Helen Bauer, Thanyia Moore, Kiri Pritchard-McLean, Olga Koch, Iain Stirling, Arlene Phillips, Jo Brand and Eshaan AkbarProduced by Sasha BobakExecutive Producer Pete StraussProduction Coordinator Katie BaumFirst Broadcast BBC Radio 4, 1st Apr - 6th May 2025I Don't Know What To SayWritten and performed by Laura SmythFeaturing Philippa PerryProduced by Sasha BobakExecutive Producer Pete StraussProduction Coordinator Katie BaumFirst Broadcast BBC Radio 4, 8th Nov 2023(c)2025 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2025 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd
