Thu, 08 Sep 2022 - 1h 22min - 148 - Introduction to Ragbag Presents: Brollywood
Welcome to our brand new podcast, Ragbag Presents. Here's an introduction to what it's all about.
Brollywood blurb:
After losing his home, then accidentally burning down another one, Frank is reunited with his former cellmate, Noddy. Noddy, despite evidence to the contrary, is still alive, and is very concerned about the disappearance of a set of plans to steal millions of pounds from a mysterious group of British film stars.
Brollywood lifts the lid on the ultimate underground society, the greatest con-trick of all time, and the best-kept secret in showbusiness. It’s a story about love and friendship, as well as a handy guidebook on how to pull off a bank heist during a global pandemic.

Frank unearths the one surviving episode of Heeb Streeb, a podcast he presented as a younger man. Heeb Streeb ran for 37 episodes between 2006 and 2007.

Frank and Uncle Claude offer a much-needed burst of optimism by performing their own unique version of Ivor Novello's We'll Gather Lilacs, which despite having been written in the 1940s, is arguably the song of the moment.

Although you’re far away
And life is sad and grey
I have a scheme, a dream to try
I’m thinking, dear, of you
And all I meant to do
When we’re together, you and I
We’ll soon forget our care and pain
And find such lovely things to share again
We’ll gather lilacs in the spring again
And walk together down an English lane
Until our hearts have learned to sing again
When you come home once more
And in the evening by the firelight’s glow
You’ll hold me close and never let me go
Your eyes will tell me all I want to know
When you come home once more

Uncle Claude's back, with some business advice for Frank, although the conversation soon descends into a puntastic roasting session. A 'roast of everything', if you will. This description probably doesn't make much sense, but to be fair, neither does the episode itself. It's good fun, though. You'll enjoy this one.
This time, Ragbag Recommends The Killer Rabbit podcast, a marvelous diversion, which will take your mind off Covid-19 for a while. Here's their Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/killerrabbitpod
