Brunch With The Brits

While this is not the last of our Avengers stories we may have to go back to weekly on these and that's for one reason only. Matt's stressed. So please enjoy the rest of "Love all," while Matt prepares 95.

In this episode we learn what happens when Churchill is clinically dead set sail yet again with Troutbridge and in the second episode of Quiet American Fowler returns to the battlefront but even there he isn't safe. Pyle has another serious confession to make. Remember the voice mail is always open at 206-337-4078. Enjoy.

This time nothing from Twitch the cat but more from the Avengers. Just what does a char lady have to do with secret Government plots? How does Rodney get away? And will John and Emma get any closer to the problem's vortex? Enjoy this Avengers episode.

This week we begin the next Avengers serial. There's news about Mother a brief chat about the Avengers tv series and we get more of a spy thriller. Enjoy "Love All." Remember to call 206-337-4078

Trouble continues at the Dance Studio but with both Steed and Peal on the job what will happen next? This will conclude tommorow. 

This is a repost of the podcast originally daated November 9 2009.  Special thanks to Julie Anne in Australia who found this error catching up with old episodes and John in England for actually having the episode for us to repost.  We start with the ninth episode of Churchill's Bodyguard entitled Winston's Double.  Then we play some old victrola records before delving in to the Avengers Quick Quick Slow Deaath episode 3 then we play the fourth episode from series 2 of the Navy Lark then conclude with the final episode of The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow.  Pleaase enjoy and remember this is a repost from 2009 so this is pre PDM.  

Just what is the t word that goes with Mrs. Peal's drink? And are we getting closer to who killed Arthur Peever? Was it really Arthur Peever who was killed? And what does tatooing a sausage have to do with all this? It's based on a British tv show and recorded in South Africa plus a few recorded announcements. Enjoy.

This week happy Halloween. We're in the middle of "The Legend of Sleepy HOllow," on our naval island we're bringing back the aAdmiral's barge we get closer to seeing what happens with John sSteed at a posh dancing school and we get a birds eye view of Anglo American relations during WWII with Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill. Enjoy

This week Sherlock HOlmes take a well deserved holiday. Find out why as you listen. However we'll meet the Avengers for the first time revissit our naval draft and find out what happened when Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt met for the first time.

I'd like to get one thng straight this week before I post. We are not a sports podcast. Yet with the Angels down 2 games and yyours truly here in California I thought ... well I needed to vent to someone dear listeners. Anyway we'll begin with Churchill's bodyguard and "Dangerous tTravels." Then we return to the Navy Lark. We'll be with our friends in the Navy until at least next April so if you're a Navy Lark friend or know one please tell your friends. We conclude this week with "The Man With The Twisted Lip." Please enjoy.

We'll start with Churchills Bodyguard and cover the years leading up to and bringing England in to WWII. After that we listen to "Dial M For Pizza," and listen to "The Five Orange Pips." Please enjoy.

In this episode we begin as usual with Churchill's Bodyguard. With Walter and Winston in the United States we learn how Churchill averts Indian Nationalists and see how Gandhi and Churchill indirectly cross paths. Then we'll have our final laugh for a while in the Castle. How will Anne stop Sam from hanging? We finish with Sherlock Holmes and the Boscom Valley mystery. Please enjoy.

I knew something was wrong all week this week. Maybe it was the fact it was our aniversary but here is your correct episode for last week. You'll start with Churchill's Bodyguard and learn how Winston does with Indian assasins in the US. Then we'll see how Sir John does recruiting people for the crusades and see how Sherlock Holmes solves a case ... from his armchair.

In this episode we begin with "Churchill's Bodyguard and the second episode "Lawrence and Walter Save The Day." It's Churchill's first Middle East conference as colonial secretary and you'll see that in 88 years not much has changed. WE then move on to the Castle and learn about Sir Walter DeIsney. Plus onter pop culture references and end up at 221b Baker where Holmes and Watson bring down "The Redheaded League. Enjoy

This episode gets direct credit from Fred Bertelsen. As all these shows we'll be hearing for the next few weeks were proams he originally wanted to play. First we'll learn about Walter Thompson Winston Churchill's bodyguard. Although a tv program it's well narrated and I think you'll enjoy learning about this fascinating man. Then we'll revissit The Castle. Sir William throws a party to try to woo Anne and a certain swearing chef is involved. Then we begin "The Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes," with "Scandal in Bohemia." Special thanks to the Disney Indiana crew for help here. For more on their great podcast please go to http://www.disneyindiana.com enjoy.

This week on Brunch we begin with the play "The Airman who Would Not Die." It's an adaptation from the book by John Fuller and tells the story of the eight men who died when Britain's airship candidate the R1 crashed in 1930. It delves in to mediums and seyances and I think you will enjoy it. AFter that we laugh as we learn about song parodies. Don't forget next week we begin looking at Sherlock HOlmes again and we look at Winston Churchill's bodyguard. Enjoy.

I want to begin by informing you that our voice mail is still down. Having said that Here's to this week's show. We begin with a look at Mary Magdaleen? Just who was she? What scholars believe will suprise you. We conclude with the saint as he "plays with fire." Enjoy and if any questions arrise please email at brunch@london.com Follow us on twitter at http://www.twitter.com/bwtbrits Enjoy

I'm afraid the Brunch voice mail went caput with my frequent overtimes but no worries. It'll be back up soon. Let me begin by telling you we're begining with a Bible mystery again this time talking about Joshua and the Battle of Jeriko. We then look at "The Saint Closes the Case." It's England in the 1930's. Noone trusts anyone be it English or Nazi and the Saint is right in the middle. Enjoy. Those of you looking for the summer marathon stay tuned as it'll be posted soon. Questions or comments? Email still works. brunch@london.com

I want to begin this overview by thanking David O'neil from Extinct Attractions. Just recently he played an intervew of himself done by another podcaster. Well if Dave can do it ... so can I. And I really wanted to share this one with you guys without starting another podcast. So here it is. Lst Saturday I participated in an interview roundtable with noted baseball historian and local radio talk show host Ira Fistel. We talked about a lot of stuff including the 1919 Black Sox Scandal how baseball games were originally thrown the difference between a 19th century and current game and the state of baseball broadcasting. The pannel includes myself, noted otr personality Larry Gassman, Mike Stern and our exultant chair Bob Acosta. It's an hour and a half. And I really hope you come away learning something. If you're a baseball fan you're gonna love it. Btw what does this have to do with Brunch or BBC? Nothing!! But if Gary Chambers can take four month breaks and David Bales can just disappear ... lol ... well I c
