Folk singer and former medical doctor James Fagan joins us to talk bollocks. Cassette Roulette takes us on a strange journey from the poetry of Arthur Seymour John Tessimond to Pat and Peggy of EastEnders. Our niece inspires a dance hit with her posh pain au chocolat panic, we check out British Gas’s sexually suggestive TV advert, and there are more mystery musical challenges, this time with an incendiary twist.

I’m talking taps in Technological Regression Masquerading As Technological Progression. Join me in the kitchen for another exciting dish-washing special, providing listener Steve with one heck of a high-scoring round of Exclamation Cricket. The return of Cassette Roulette leads us down a rabbit hole involving Ross Noble and an alligator. There’s more vestibule-based chat, more mechanical music challenges, and Ellie turns roving reporter, conducting an exclusive interview for Le Creuset News.

It’s been a while, but this week I recount a harrowing journey that involves coming under attack on a deserted street in Sheffield. I also have an awkward incident in a bakery. To unwind, I take a bath—and fear not, I bring you in with me. There’s an update on my recent dalliance with the Daily Mail, plus more recordings of listeners’ washing machines and more mechanical musical challenges.

This week, Ellie gets a Google Alert for my name, linking to a Daily Mail article in which I am mentioned and quoted. We read you the article, then embark on some investigative journalism of our own to uncover the truth behind the story. And that’s not the only article we read on this week’s podcast: we also have the write-up of the very strange interview I did for a Yorkshire newspaper last week. Plus listeners’ Yorkshire jokes, more mechanical musical challenges and, I suppose at this point it probably goes without saying, more Le Creuset news.

It’s a very literature-heavy podcast this week, as we bring you spontaneous limericks, a poem from my ten-year-old self, and I recount the rather unusual newspaper interview that I did a few days back. Plus, finally, after months of waiting, I’m back in the kitchen for a dishwashing special. More mechanical musical challenges, more Le Creuset news, and the return of our catchily titled feature Technological Regression Masquerading As Technological Progression.

Join me at Folk East Festival along with the other two from The Young’uns and friend of the podcast Mathew Crampton, for a chat with folk singers Emily Portman and Sam Carter, plus Canadian shanty band Pressgang Mutiny. Emily is the victim of an impersonation, Sam takes the law into his own hands, and Pressgang Mutiny inspire a Canadian-based guessing game. Meanwhile, back at home, I am contacted by the dead, there’s a mystery music challenge, and we’re fleetingly joined by Alan Carr.

It’s the final chapter of my fantasy Novella, The Story Of The Brain King. Will the Time Doctor and the Lord Of Darkness agree to stop the destruction of an entire planet? Cassette Roulette showcases one of my invented childhood games. There’s a brief appearance from Dara Ó Briain and Terry Wogan, and we have another strange experience in the Turkish baths.

This week we have an unexpected encounter with celebrity chef Ainsley Harriott, who involves himself in our feature Potato News. The Time Doctor and The Lord Of Darkness go head-to-head in an epic battle of words, with part 11 of my childhood fantasy novella, The Story Of The brain King. There’s news and sport courtesy of Cassette Roulette. We’re contacted by members of the North East’s 90s Happy Hardcore community,. And there's more Le Creuset news.

We're back with another dose of dragons and confusing characters courtesy of my childhood novella, The Story Of the Brain King. Cassette Roulette takes us into a surreal world of late night 90s North East raves. And you send us your examples of one word song triggers.

This week I goaded Mike Read and was slapped in the face by a posh old lady on the train. Plus more unusual audio clips curtesy of Cassette Roulette, and it’s part 9 of my childhood fantasy novella The Story Of The Brain King.

I have yet another weird massage experience. I remix Morrissey. It’s the return of Cassette Roulette and a surprise reappearance for Potato News. There’s tea-based controversy, bible studies and a Le Creuset exclusive. Plus part 8 of my childhood fantasy novella, The Story Of The Brain King, where we find out what happens when a dragon-riding Knight is confronted by a computer.

We unearth my primary school reports. We finally take a little step forward with our rescue mission in part 7 of my childhood fantasy novella The Story Of The brain King. There’s listener tea reviews, advice for dealing with ferrel nursery kids, and I have a run-in with a sign language interpreter who castigates my lack of originality whilst fervently promoting a proponent of moist genitalia.

Lots of drama this week. Pip is on a perilous precipice of a mountain; Olivia faces fire; Steve is on a mission to infiltrate his local church; I get attacked by nursery children, and it’s time to find out whether we’re able to escape the Lord Of Darkness and his creatures of death.

More crazy characters, confusion and chaotic capers in the sixth instalment of my childhood fantasy novella The Story Of The brain King. Ellie has acquired a new hobby, and she’s made yet another secret recording of me. There’s another cold brew tea tasting, a porcelain boob update from Steve, and Spammer Time helps us learn about the habits of the David Eagle Podcast listenership. Plus some behind the scenes chat from my BBC Radio appearances last weekend.

Ellie has been secretly recording me. Find out whether we escape the dragon in part 4 of my childhood fantasy novella, The Story Of The brain King. We try to break into prison. And fear not, there is of course more Le Creuset news.
