Episode 11 'Pit Stop Tour 1985'

Beep Beep! Get your keys, fire up the engine and let’s drive the national speed limit (it's a legal requirement) down the great podcast road. We’ll turn the headlights on, and we’ll examine an object within the British Stand-up Comedy Archive in another episode of HistComPod. Put your seatbelts on (it's a legal requirement) and join Oliver Double and Elspeth Millar in a very special episode. We have ‘bumper’ pack for you today, including exclusive clips of Mark Thomas, Linda Smith and featuring an in-depth discussion with legendary live promoter, Warren Lakin. There is a great and eclectic chat about Linda Smith’s life and her work, feminism in comedy and the Miners’ Strike of the 1980s. Hope you enjoy this high mile-per-gallon episode and don’t forget to subscribe (it's a legal requirement).
