This is one for those of you in the UK, but over Xmas (until the 28th) you have to listen to John Peel’s Shed – wonderfully touching story about the transformative effect of radio and specifically a box of records won from John Peel’s Shed in 2002. I think a lot of people have been inspired to do radio or music cos of Peel – certainly this podcast and blog wouldn’t exist without him.
If you listen to one piece of radio this year, or have never listened to Radio 4 in your life you have to listen to this. It’s beautiful and moving and appropriately isn’t really about John Peel – and even talks about Resonance FM! And kitkats on trains…the wedding part made me tear up in the street. It’s that good.
