Madame Magenta: Sonos Mystica

It's the first of our Pride specials! Through the month of June, we'll be raising money for LGBTQIA+ charities. This week, the funds were split evenly between Stonewall, Mermaids, Trans Lifeline and the Elton John AIDS Foundation - all excellent outfits doing excellent work.
Don't forget to head on over to the YouTube channel to watch the catch-up video, and see Bernard's songs of the week! In this episode, Bernard played Comme Si (Christine & The Queens), A Little Respect (Erasure) and Hidden Place (Björk).
You can tune in to our next live stream on Sunday 14th June, 8pm UK time (3pm ET), here.
And you can still donate to this week's charities via the campaign link here.

After a brief hiatus, M&B are back with more esoteric insights, toe-tapping tunes and rallying cries of rage in this era of late-stage capitalist chaos.
Don't forget, you can head to YouTube and watch the catch-up version of these live streams, and you'll get to hear Bernard's songs that get cut from the podcasts! Songs in this episode: Chappell Roan: Hot To Go, Talking Heads: Once In A Lifetime, The Proclaimers: Sunshine On Leith.
Join us this coming Sunday for the next stream! 7th June, 8pm UK time (3pm ET). Watch on YouTube here.

It's another multi-charity special! Plenty of Muppet-talk in this week's stream, along with a pondering on whether Waterworld is a maligned classic, and some distinctly unhelpful spiritual guidance from Jilly Cooper and this week's guest publication, The Medieval Traveller by Norbert Ohler.
And of course, we helped raise money for a host of charities: PCRF, Medical Aid For Palestinians, Trans Lifeline and Amnesty International. And you can still donate to the charity of your choice via this week's campaign page.
Join us on Sunday 17th May at 8pm UK time (3pm ET) for the next one!

Good Gollum, Miss Mollum! It's another M&B charity live stream, raising money for the PCRF - Palestine Children's Relief Fund.
A very body-positive episode this week (with no thanks to our star bibliomancy text, Pandora by Jilly Cooper). Head on over to the YouTube recording of the livestream to hear Bernard play Both Sides Now (Joni Mitchell) and Boy Child (Scott Walker), which of course can't be included in the podcast for copyright reasons. But they sounded very nice!
Join us on Sunday May 10th for our next multi-charity live stream!
And you can still support this week's campaign for the PCRF, here.

On this week's episode of "half-remembered things and dubiously named British foodstuffs", M&B discuss the phenomena of Aunt Bessie's Yorkshire Puddings, the Fray Bentos Meaty Pud, the Double Decker, and of course, Mr Brain's Pork F*****s.
Join us next week, when M&B promise to eat at least one (1) of those foodstuffs on air!
Watch the next stream on Sunday 3rd May, at 8pm UK time (3pm ET), here. We will be raising money for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund.
