  • Interruption to Service
    2024/08/15
    Special Announcement: Please excuse this break in transmission - Episode 6 was going to take us to Greece, where Helen is enjoying the scenery and the sunshine. But in view of the terrible tragedy of the wildfires presently affecting large parts of Greece, including Athens itself, I'd decided to postpone that episode till next week. In the meantime, here is news regarding the development of the new podcast, "Baked Off!" which I hope to be able to bring to you later this year. Voices: Ed Donnelly, John Warner, Andrew Durning, Matthew Field, Wendy Lap, Bernadette Pryde, Andrea Richardson, Tayo Aluko, Roy R Carruthers and Flloyd Kennedy.

  • Never Mind Wally! Where's Helen?
    2024/08/08
    Helen has gone missing, so daughter Janey and granddaughter Susie team up to track her down. This episode is an experiment, in that it takes the form of a series of telephone calls. A bit like the old 'epistolatory' genre, only using message bank rather than the post office. Let me know if you think it works - drop your response at https://amIoldyet.com/reviews - just a few words would be great. Helen, Janey, Susie and Jennifer are all played by me, Flloyd Kennedy. The music is from John T La Barbera's album, "In the Labyrinth" and the tracks are: Dionysius' Dream In the Labyrinth SFX all recorded by Flloyd Kennedy, foley style, apart from the vibrating phone which was courtesy of MOBILE-PHONE-VIBRATION BY AALORV -- HTTPS://FREESOUND.ORG/S/745003/ -- LICENSE: ATTRIBUTION 4.0 Please Support the Show.
