JCPC 013 Alex Honnold

Crack a doodle doo old pips. We got a big fish on the end of the line for you tonight. Alex Honnold, big wall free soloist, Alpine mega-stumbler and all round cool cat, gets on the end of a good long interview. Recorded live at the Montrose Jazz Festival, 1968, this is a good rummage around the Californian's world. Hope you enjoy it. 

JCPC 011 The Highliners

Wot, not about climbers! I hear you cry. No, this week we take a delve into another way to waste your time; highlining. I caught up with a bunch of them over the Shaff weekend, and was intrigued to find out more about the sport. They were some of the UK's most committed highliners, gathered by Sheffield local, and current world-record holder, Sarah Rixham. 

JCPC 010 Paul Pritchard reads Rubble Merchants, Slate Heads and Others

The coolest cat in the cupboard, the ultimate helmet-boiler, master of RP hijinx and the loose-hold two-step, Paul Pritchard is this week's guest reader. What a mondo privilege to have this hone read us a story. It comes from his award-winning collection, Deep Play. I also refer to The Totem Pole in the intro. They are both worth getting your hands on. If I know of anywhere they can be easily shoplifted from I'll let you know - after I get one myself, of course.
