Andrea Catherwood discusses Feedback listeners' views on Radio 4's new satirical comedy, Munya Chawawa's Election Doom Scroll, with Radio 4's Comedy and Entertainment Commissioner Julia McKenzie. The three-part series takes us on an imaginary flick through the mobile phones of political leaders, uncovering spoof voice notes, video clips and messages.
Last weekend's Restore Nature Now march in London generated a lot of heat in the the Feedback inbox. Tens of thousands of protesters descended on Parliament Square calling for urgent action on climate change. It was covered in detail by most of the major broadcasters but, if you'd been listening to Radio 4, you'd have missed it. The lack of coverage angered many listeners.
Radio 4's Uncanny is in its fourth series. The programme investigates paranormal events, talking to witnesses and experts to try and uncover rational explanation for spooky goings on. The podcast was created by writer Danny Robins during lockdown and has been a huge hit. Two Uncanny super fans pop into the Feedback VoxBox to talk about the latest series, which is based in the USA. Danny also talks to Andrea about how the show has created such a loyal community of followers.
