Did a search on the Franks and found your feed, been laughing my head off!

Caught up the Shelagh Delaney episode of @backlisted.bsky.social today - a wonderful listen (still getting over the ITV interview ๐Ÿ˜ฎ)

This podcast is consistently excellent - warmth and wisdom and such breadth.

The accompanying Locklisted pod (via Patreon) is a bi-weekly treat. Thank you ๐Ÿ™

Well this is a bit depressing.
Itโ€™s getting harder and harder to make a living and it worries me.
Please have a look and repost.
