Anyone else remember Celebrity Traitors in 1995?

What a series that was. Michael Parkinson, Gabrielle and Tim Curry as the Traitors. The unlikely friendship between Brian Moore and Art Malik. Mollie Sugden's fart. Adrian Moorhouse's eye-roll. All hosted by Eve Pollard.

This isn’t hard: the Nobel Prize for Best Song is just the music and lyrics while Best Record includes the production, recording and mixing.

While I was sadly not selected for the main festival I’m delighted to announce I will be self-producing my show at the Riyadh Fringe.

Sure I’ll lose money because the tent only seats 30, but it’s nice to be in the conversation.

Wait so social programs aren’t just morally right, they ultimately save that society money? If only this were also backed up by every other study ever.
A program in Flint, MI, gave $1,500 to any/all pregnant people and $500/month for the first year of their infant’s life.

Among the benefits, those babies experienced lower rates of prematurity and low birth weight, which resulted in fewer NICU admissions, saving the city of Flint $6.2 million/year.

Infants in Rx Kids in Flint, Michigan, saw lower rates of prematurity and other issues, saving millions in NICU visits

While I appreciate the sentiment it's important not to spread misinformation: these aren't journalists, they are the actors Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman
When journalism was cool. And risked everything to challenge power.

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind
