Welcome to a podcast hosted by unemployable fourth-rate advertising suit Steve Cooke and eminently-employable award-winning advertising creative and TV commercial director Tony Williams (no not that one – the other one).
Each week, in an attempt to transport ourselves back to a world where there was no global plague, we all had expense accounts and white dogshit was still a thing, we review a classic TV ad and try to work out whether or not it was any good. We’re already attracting some great reviews…

“I f*cking hate these people…” – Unnamed bread brand marketing director
“Why do they think my name is so funny?” – Award-winning TV commercial director Tom Kuntz

“I’m going to sue these dickheads…” – INSERT NAME HERE
“Everyone loves the Hovis ad, WTF is wrong with you c*nts…” – Sir Ridley Scott
“I was brilliant in that ad…” – Ray Wilkins
“Eccellente.” – Colonel Dietrich from Raiders of the Lost Ark
“Both these blokes use lady-scented body wash…” – Isaiah Mustapha
“Lovely boys. I knew their parents you know. Well worth a listen.” – Clarence Frank Birdseye II
“The mark 2 Ford Transit is basically exactly the same as the original 1965 version except it has square headlights. Don’t edit that out you wanker.” – Tony Williams

On a rocky outcropping off the northeastern coast of England, the monastery of Lindisfarne once stood as an outpost of religious, philosophic, and intellectual study against the “dark” times of early medieval Europe. Inspired by the foresight and dogged determination of these medieval monks, William Irwin Thompson founded the Lindisfarne Association in 1972 to gather together bold scientists, scholars, artists, and contemplatives to realize a new planetary culture in the face of the political, cultural, and environmental crises of the twentieth century. Brought to you by the Schumacher Center for a New Economics, The Lindisfarne Tapes podcast represents some of the most visionary thinking of the time, drawing connections between culture, economics, society, and technology. While the germs of new ideas contained in these tapes are now beginning to take root, they remain an invaluable source of speculative thinking that will continue to inspire our visions of a more just and regenerative future.

Filmmaker Josh Zeman wasn’t expecting to unearth a bombshell when he first met journalist Maury Terry. Obsessed with the infamous Son of Sam case, Maury had dedicated his life to its intricacies and had serious doubts about its conclusion. He believed that David Berkowitz didn’t act alone, that there were more Sons of Sam still out there, and that the police knew it. In this podcast, Josh follows Maury’s trail, examining the terrifying connections and plausible clues, sending him deeper down the rabbit hole. But where does it end? Searching for the Sons of Sam is a companion to the Netflix docuseries, The Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness, premiering on Netflix on May 5.
