Who am I?
Hello, I'm Hil. I love to hear and make short sketch podcasts that transport listeners to anywhere in the time/space dustbinuum. Audio is a passion. I was once describing a film I'd watched, costumes and all, when I stopped mid sentence, realising it had been a radio play. In that moment, I realised audio was a powerful medium. This podcast is partly homage to some classic British radio shows but mainly a labour of love.
My Show

4. The mighty boosh radio series mutants
Why this podcast?
Mighty Boosh was just great on the radio. The mixed randomness and pace of the show was a great formula and the characters' voices just kept it bubbling along nicely.
