Before you listen to this BBC podcast, I want to tell you why I love podcasting.

Hi, my name's Tommy Dixon, and I make podcasts for the BBC.

I'm a big fan of stories, always loved a good book.

But when I started commuting for my first job, I discovered podcasts.

I was blown away by how a creative idea and the right mixture of sounds could take you into

a whole new world full of incredible stories. You know, the type that make you go, wow. And that kind of inspired me to

give it a go myself, which, to cut a long story short, led to a BBC training scheme and a whole

new career giving other people that exact same feeling. So if you want to hear amazing stories

that make you go wow like I did, they're just a tap or click away on BBC

Sounds.

BBC Sounds, music, radio, podcasts.

Hello. I am Andy's Oltsman. In an effort to come up with a headline more ridiculous

than what we've been seeing in the news this week, I've hired a secret aircraft hangar

full of an infinite number of monkeys

with an infinite number of typewriters.

Maybe not the best use of your licence fee, but they have been worse.

To help them along, we've been plying them with absinthe and psychotropic bananas.

Let's see what headlines they've come up with.

Free Dolphins for Pensioners Scheme to reduce travel time between Scotland and Canada.

Just not as ridiculous as what we've been seeing.

Shakespeare to be reincarnated as erotic game show host.

I can see that happening.
