The Great Women ArtistsMichaela Yearwood-DanI am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is one of the most exciting painters working in the world today, Michaela Yearwood-Dan.
Hailed for her works that bloom, dance, and come alive when you are witness to them, with an abundance of textures, weathers, colours, mark-makings, and more, Yearwood-Dan intertwines the botanical with abstraction, and brings painting back to its natural-like essence. Never restricting herself to just one medium, Yearwood-Dan works across ceramics, sound, installation, performance, and all-encompassing paintings that can range from small to the colossal, with some measuring up to 8-metres-wide. See them...2025-05-0745 min

Starboard Vineyard ToursStarboard Vineyard Tours 13: The Mechanics of Wonder: The Creation of the Idea of Science Fiction, WestfahlFor this episode, we read Gary Westfahl's The Mechanics of Wonder: The Creation of the Idea of Science Fiction (1998). This book frustrated us quite a bit with its insistence that the fundamental nature of science fiction was defined in the 20s and has not changed since. On the other hand, we came away with a new appreciation for its central figures, Hugo Gernsback and John W. Campbell, Jr., especially Gernsback, as thinkers of science fiction, if not theorists per se. The depth of Westfahl's research into these two men's writings fascinated us; we simply disagree strongly with his conclusions...2024-08-1900 min

Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 26 - CarsHere in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live
In cars
dun-dah-dun-tsh!
dun-dah-dun-tsh!
Here in my car
I can only receive
I can listen to you
It keeps me stable for days
In cars
dun-dah-dun-tsh!
dun-dah-dun-tsh!
Here in my car
Where the image breaks down
Will you visit me please
If I open my door
In cars
dun-dah-dun-tsh!
dun-dah-dun-tsh!
Here in my car
I know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
In cars

Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 24 Fear Part 1This time of year is very scary. Look after yourself and don't eat too many sweets. Give your favourite relative a call and spook the shit out of them*. They'll like it.

Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 23 - PartiesRoll up to the mo-foing party that is this podcast recorded live just near a party. Remember the smell of bouncy castles? Remember cheese and pineapple on a stick? Remember how weird it all was? And me. We're going to deep dive that ish for a fully pepped up podder where mark's hungover offf of previous parties and ben slightly less so. You C*NT!2017-10-1632 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 22 - CharityDonate to Shelter here: https://england.shelter.org.uk/donate
Maybe you think you're a charitable guy, but have you ever given money to someone who lives on the street? Why not? Because you reckon they're secretly earning 60k from their cushy piss-filled street corner? Well they ain't. We'll cover that and other subjects in this podcast all about all kinds of charity.2017-10-0931 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 21 - Video GamesZelda? Sonic the Hedgehog? Lee Carvallo's Putting Challenge? All these sorts of games and more are totally overlooked in this week's podcast. We get down and dirty in the virtual world of video gaming and discuss whether having been brought up on the bastards has effed us up (it hasn't). Bye!2017-10-0935 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 20 - Space! One of the frontiersListen to this if you aren't a bumbaclart and perhaps even if you are. Space has far more facets to it than just being a load of nothing above earth. Most of everything is made up of just space. Therefore the concept of space pretty much covers everything. Including the computer space bar. Come with us and boldly go where no podcast has ever gone before.2017-09-2637 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 19 - Fashionable fashionHelp! I never wrote a description for this. It's about fashion but I can't remember the content. One thing's for sure - it's side-splittingly funny.2017-09-1837 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 18 - AnimalsWe talk about animals.
I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause
I will travel across the land
Searching far and wide
Each Pokemon to understand
The power that's inside
Pokemon, (gotta catch them all) its you and me
I know its my destiny
Pokemon, oh, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
Pokemon, (gotta catch them all) a heart so true
Our courage will pull us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
(Po-ke-mon) Gotta catch 'em all
Gotta...2017-09-0927 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 17 - Cuisine and All Things DeliciousHey good lookin' what chat got cookin? Is it your eyebrows? Because they smell horrendous. We're covering the variations of the word Candy Floss across the worlde, Ben getting attacked by a half-naked man playing a mouth piano and Mark getting banned from eating Spicy prawn soup. Not only that but Mark hypocritically explains why you can't call things GAY having just done so 5 seconds before! Other topics we touch on are Dennis the Menace, Ben criticising Mark's Mum's syrup sponge and a blatantly plagiaristic retelling of Matt Morgan's Pin Pin story.2017-09-0430 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 16 - Fighting!Left hook/right hook, ropeadope and buttslam. All of these topics aren't covered in this week's podcast. In anticipation of the big money fight between Martin Mayflower and Colon Gregg, we have a look at our history with all things combative and confrontational. There is absolutely no love in this podcast, only seething red hate. Enjoy!2017-08-2827 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 15 - It's all about that Music topicSkrrrrra pa pa pa ka ka skibidi pa pa and a pu-pu-pdrrrrrrr-pom! Skya! Pa-pa-ca-ca poom poom. Poom poom. You dun-kno.
That is an example of where music and humour come together. In the podcast you will find similar. Enjoy it or pay the consequences.2017-08-2250 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 14 - FriendshipAdrian Booth drops in, swears and never stops talking about nobs. Thus ruining our family-friendly podcast vibes. This is possibly the most vile and graphic podcast to date, and seeing as this week's podcast is friends, that must mean we have disgusting friends! Either that or we go badly off topic as usual.

Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 13 - Mid 20s Crisis - A Bit SportsGet stuffed (full of podcast) crunchy babies. We're all very sporting this week. We've got lots of fictional advice on how to succeed in sport and reveal all about Ben's badboy antics at primary school Country Dancing club and discus how lovely Mark is and always has been.2017-08-0744 min
TK with James Scott: A Writing, Reading, & Books PodcastBenjamin Percy & Helen AtsmaThe seventh book from Benjamin Percy is the terrifying THE DARK NET. He tells James what he's learned writing comics, how he juggles his projects, why his sister slept with the lights on into her 20s (spoiler: it's Ben's fault), and how he overcame being a closeted genre fan. Plus Percy's editor and editorial director of fiction at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Helen Atsma. - Benjamin Percy: http://benjaminpercy.com/ Benjamin and James Discuss: Green Arrow Teen Titans Black Canary Dennis O'Neil Neal Adams ...2017-08-011h 46
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 12 - Mid 20s Crisis - NothingHello there, don't forget to have already listened to this podcast. We were themeless this week, still slightly running on holiday time. So we review our previous "appraisal" style podcast and chat about Mark's holiday. We then go quite badly off-piste and frenzied. As usual packed full of fibs and madness x2017-07-3146 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 11 - AppraisalThis is real evidence that we will never make it alone. Mark and I have a try at recording in different countries on different days. This format was never going to go far but on the plus side... We didn't kill any bees during the production of the podcast? Sorry! (not about the bees but the overall quality)2017-07-2527 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 10 - TechnologyBaffling isn't it? The modern frontier of technology. All those gizmos with their LEDs and their Paypals and electronic tagging devices. Well you're in luck, this week we're going to smash through those boundaries on a journey of technological discovery. Come with us, if you dare. But you probably won't because you're a wet blanket. NERD!2017-07-1345 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 9 - PrideThis is not a drill - we've done a 45 minute podcast straight out of our minds and brains. We've hit the topic hard this week - PRIDE - since it's been pride all over London this weekend. We talk about London pride and all the other things in life we're proud (or not) of. Think of this week's episode as an incredible maraca solo that's sort of irritating but you just can't resist the pure genius of. Nice to meet you, bye!2017-07-0648 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 8 - Pet PeevesHate. Dripping, oozing and pulsating with true and vicious loathing this week as we discuss our pet peeves. No we've not kidnapped much-maligned Harry Potter spectre Peeves and made him our pet - we've simply decide to chat about things that annoy us and who's at fault for all this. If you're reading this, it's probably you. Why not leave a comment on this stream telling us the things that really cheese you off. Please for the love of all that's holy. Bye.2017-07-0238 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 7 - FestivalsEff off and read another description. It's a lot of anecdotes about festivals and it's intensely humourous, that's all you need to know.2017-06-2435 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 6 - Being On BrandAlas alack and alay it's a ruddy podcast we've created again out of out mouths and brains and whatnot. This week's theme is being "on brand" and it covers loads of fun topics. We discuss the hot heat which is occurring in our sweltering recording sweatroom, weasel stationery, hacking into the CIA, snout polish, slag heaps and a dancing Pakistani. Thanks for reading this, love you. x2017-06-1936 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 5 - YouthThis is still not my job. I'm filing a case with my local rep. Mark is a capitalist pig profiting from my blood sweat and tears all of which have been very bad for my keyboard.2017-06-1334 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 4 - Sweet ToastHello, this bit is not normally my responsibility. I think this can just be a placeholder as I have no idea what this is even remotely about. I reckon Mark has been doing the silly Soundcloud tags wrong... at least I can feel a bit smug about that. love you. xox2017-06-0535 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 3 - A Million TangentsWe've decided to revolutionise our podcast yet again and reformatted the blighter. We're being far more erratic than last time and making a firm decision to discuss our favourite wees of all time. Plus loads about Mark's new sunglasses, Ben also discusses topics, plus much more!

Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 2 - Podcast PodcastAhead of Ben's first ever Premier League appearance (although he can't remember who he's going to see) we discuss The Dubland and Money Box Live podcasts along with quite a lot of other nonsense thrown in too. With fascinating subjects such as Irish words, Dianne Abbot, JME and what is the largest small percentage?2017-05-2226 min
Mark and Ben's Mid 20s CrisisEpisode 1 - Podcast PodcastWe're just trying our hardest to work out what we want to do in our podcast. We discuss all the options we have and go off on tangential tangents about midnight petrol stations visits, cicada battles, Mark's B.O and loads of other stuff. Also don't judge us for our horribly executed production skills and jingles.2017-05-1324 min
