I'm guessing this from around the taping of The Last Goon Show Of All in 1972.

Good morning.

I bought an old cassette boombox from Goodwill, and this was inside it… bonus content! #BBC #GoonShow

(I’ve actually never heard the Goon Show but have since learned they were a huge influence of both the Firesign Theatre and Monty Python.)

When the Queen died, I felt betrayed by a nation. Today, I feel something quite different

A moving essay by Stan Grant who finds that James Joyce most encapsulates the absurdity of the crowning of an English king whose crumbling former empire was founded on the blood of those it colonised & conquered. Maybe there’s a reason #KingCharlesIII is so fond of #MontyPython + the #GoonShow

This is one of my favourite little sketches from the #GoonShow from 1955 featuring major Dennis blood knock played by Peter Sellers and Nettie seegoon played by Harry Secombe.
Nothing beats this show on radio and I have heard many good ones. Nothing.

Moriarty "telling his story" in French-sounding gibberish, complete with sound effects, in the #GoonShow episode entitled "Scradge", is Spike at his best. Incomparable.

George Martin was born on 3 January 1926.

As well as his groundbreaking work with #TheBeatles, George produced some enduring and innovative comedy records, including the #BeyondTheFringe cast recording, bestselling records with #PeterSellers, a #GoonShow LP and Right Said Fred by #BernardCribbins.

Thank you so much to those who've taken the time to listen to our sketch #podcast. It came about after hearing someone in the library complain there was never anything funny on the radio. Being raised on #ISIRTA and #goonshow etc I've always been fascinated by the way #radio can take you anywhere with a few #soundeffects. With the awesome tech available now it became easy enough to produce material at home and hey presto! ...There still isn't anything funny but I've loved making it.

@stavvers you've gotta go "ow" #GoonShow
