EPISODE 15 – INAUGURATION FEVER, CELEBRITY ENCOUNTERS, OSCAR TRAVESTIES AND THE SEXIEST NATIONALITIES

Yes! We! Did! Record another episode of the podcast, that is.

A new year, a new dawn, and a new edition of the Bullshit Bingo podcast – bringing you Change You Can Believe In from around a table in a front room in Clapham. Well, it’s what Obama would want, isn’t it?

We kick off 2009 with our 15th – count ‘em! – episode. During which we discuss big important world events – our man in Washington reporting back from the inauguration -  plus the celebrities we’ve met, the biggest Oscar travesties, and the races of people who set our pulses, well, racing.

And we need your help again for next month. Please. Pretty please? We’d like to know which newsreaders do it for you – you know, sex-wise. Not delivering-the-story-well-wise – and also about your most hated management-speak. (If, indeed, you work in a Proper Office like Sean and Eddie, and actually come across management-speak. Tom and Andrea are creative slackers, so are more used to blogger-speak.)

Enjoy the podcast – no, please. Do – and leave your comments on this blog, or on the Book of Face, where we’ll shortly be setting up a fan page. Or whatever it is The Kids do these days. (Link to Facebook to follow shortly.)

It’s good to have us you back.

Lots of love, and thanks for listening,

The BSB Team

WHERE WERE YOU WHEN?

But enough about you. Where were we when? And by when, we do of course mean: during earth-shatteringly important world events. Such as: Live Aid. Lennon being shot. Live Aid being shot. Lennon being on Live Aid. Etcetera.

In Episode 15, Andrea raves about being in Washington for Barack Obama’s inauguration, Tom reveals his childhood take on Charles and Diana’s wedding, Eddie reminisces about Nelson Mandela’s release from prison – he never did get that nail file back – and Sean… well, Sean was hit hard by this moment:

Aww.

AND THE WINNER IS…

Or rather: the winner should be. Or rather: shouldn’t be.

Yes, it’s silly season – sorry, awards season – and in Episode 15, the Bullshit Bingo team take great delight in discussing their Oscar travesties, including the prospect of this movie sweeping the board this year -

- as well as giving their take on the Most Outstandingly Annoying Performance By An Actress At Any Awards Ceremony Ever:

WHICH IS THE SEXIEST NATIONALITY?

…I mean, apart from British, obviously.

In the January podcast, we’ll be discussing NILFS – Nationalities I’d Like to… Erm.. You know. Have Ugandan talks with.

So tell us: which nationality does it for you?

Is it sexy Italian gay strippers footballers?

Wholesome American girls?

Or Swedes?

Tell us who your NILF is/are – in a comment below. Go on, you know you want to… (tell us, that is. Not sleep with one of the men in ABBA).

HAVE YOU MET A CELEBRITY?

If so, we want to know what happened. Unless you slept with them, in which case you can probably make a lot more money telling The News Of The World than you will do telling us. Just a little tip there, in these hard economic times.

So, yes: in Episode 15, we’ll be talking about our hilarious/painful/embarrassing encounters with famous people. And believe us, we’ve got some. Including a story about this lot -

- who clearly haven’t recovered since said encounter, because where are they now? Eh?

So: we want to know your stories, too! If you’ve got an anecdote about meeting a celeb, please let us know – just tell us all about it in a comment below. You can use a pseudonym, so don’t worry about getting sued for libel or anything. We’ll take the heat.
