In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

What would happen if a shy introvert lived like a gregarious extrovert for one year? If she knowingly and willingly put herself in perilous social situations that she’d normally avoid at all costs? Writer Jessica Pan intends to find out. With the help of various extrovert mentors, Jessica sets up a series of personal challenges (talk to strangers, perform stand-up comedy, host a dinner party, travel alone, make friends on the road, and much, much worse) to explore whether living like an extrovert can teach her lessons that might improve the quality of her life.

Myrna, Leonie, and Chrissy meet every Thursday to sample fine cheeses, to reminisce about their former lives as professors, and lately, to muse about murder. Decades ago, a vicious cabal of male poets contrived—quite publicly and successfully—to undermine the writing career, confidence, and health of their dear friend Fern. Now, after Fern has taken a turn for the worse, her three old friends decide that it’s finally time to strike back—in secret, of course, since Fern is far too gentle to approve of a vendetta.

I’m Walking Backwards For Goon Shows
As with Volume 13, don’t expect either comprehensive Goonery or a straightforward collection. This compendium does have more complete early Goon Shows, but the quality is very variable — some are very obviously sourced from off-air recordings, and restoration efforts only avail so much. Other than that, much of this collection is made up of documentaries, interviews, and miscellanies, including a BBC programme on the history of the show.
Unlike volume 13, however, this does not come with a PDF to provide information about the sources for the material (the extensive booklet for volume 13 does cover series 4, however.)
I enjoyed the compilation a great deal. Your mileage might vary, however.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
