The Bush Telegraph: Holding space for space

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/28

As a petition threatens the nascent Starmer Government (it totally doesn't), Jen takes a look at the plan to "Get Britain Working". Hannah's talking about the aftermath of the Conor McGregor rape trial in Ireland. If you thought that leaving Earth was a way to avoid sexism, we've some bad news for you, but there's good news in the form of some Rosa grants for women and girls' groups. And in Jenny Off The Blocks, we're talking cricket, tennis and some confusion over where East London is. Hannah's

2024/11/27

Groundbreaking visuals, brilliant storytelling and a ragtag bunch of characters that celebrate difference and being your true self: is there a bigger must-see movie for young and old alike than this musical fantasy classic?

Liz Buckley talks Girls Aloud

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/26

Our resident music guru Liz Buckley is back – and she’s brought some pop legends with her. Since their genesis on Popstars: The Rivals in 2002, Cheryl, Nadine Coyle, the late Sarah Harding, Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh have become proper chart botherers, world record setters and terrible ghosthunters. Liz is IN. Can she convince Mickey to get onboard the Girls Aloud tour bus, or is it a (sexy) no, no, no from Noonan? Liz talks about The Sarah Harding Breast Cancer Appeal, which you’ll find by

Writing for kids with Emma Reeves

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/25

Anyone could write a book for kids, right? Well, that does seem to be the prevailing view, so Hannah's been on the Zoom with Emma Reeves, writer and Chair of The Writers Guild of Great Britain, to find out why and how she writes for children, and why it's nowhere near as easy as everyone thinks. * Emma's new play for kids, The Glass Slippers, is at The Lighthuse in Poole from December 7 until Christmas Eve.

IMD2024 #3: Greg McHugh

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/22

New BBC sitcom Only Child is about a man realising his dad isn't coping on his own, but at the same time, doesn't really want to be helped. Highly relatable content, right? Hannah chats to one of its stars, Greg McHugh, about that whole "circle of life" thing that comes with ageing parents, and working with one of his comedy idols, Gregor Fisher. They're also talking about Fresh Meat, Marvellous and Gary: Tank Commander. Because of course they are. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Bush Telegraph: Someone vs Somebody

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/21

Are monkeys about to rise up and rule over us? Hannah hopes so, but probably not. Which is a shame, because humans are doing an appalling job of it. This week we're talking about Marine Le Pen vs Paris prosecutors, Rachel Reeves vs Farmers and the Onion vs Infowars. And in Sexism of The Week, Mickey's asking what's gone wrong with Ask For Angela.You can hear Hannah's interview with Elizabeth Williamson about Sandy Hook and Alex Jones on Spotify here:

Rated or Dated: Steel Magnolias (1989)

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/20

A stellar line-up of top women has drawn Jen to pick late-80s weepy Steel Magnolias. But will this film know what to do with its cast, or indeed know anything at all about women and their friendships? And is anyone prettier than Grandpappy’s duck on a Tuesday?Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

IMD2024 #2: Nick Miller

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/19

What Nick Miller doesn’t know about football ain’t worth knowing. INTERNATIONAL MAN, football writer, author and – full disclosure – one of Mick’s all-time favourite humans, chats about his new book, Who Owns Football?, why the answer to that question increasingly matters to all of us, what Jilly Cooper's got right about the beautiful game, and how the women’s game is nailing it in all sorts of ways.

IMD2024#1: Alex Lloyd-Hunter

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/18

The Dad Shift hit the headlines recently after a brilliant stunt, in which the campaign group attached dolls to statues of famous men across London. Why? To draw attention to the issue of men’s statutory paternity leave entitlement in the UK, which – spoiler alert! – is not good. In fact, it’s the worst in Europe, something the campaign group hopes to change. Jen caught up with Alex Lloyd-Hunter, one of the group’s founders, to talk about why the system as it stands is hurting everyone, perceptions

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/15

A feel-good romantic comedy that doesn’t make women feel like shit? Say whaaaaaat? Yosra’s picked Raine Allen Miller’s playful feature directorial debut following a day (mostly) in the life of two twenty-somethings both reeling from bad break-ups and forging a connection. Is it the mind-changing rom-com Hannah’s been waiting for? Has it got Mick pining for Peckham? And is it possible for anyone to convincingly sing along with Terence Trent D’arby? Find out.

The Bush Telegraph: A big week for Uranus

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/14

And in Jenny Off the Blocks, there’s good news, bad news, same-as-it-ever-was news, and big MOTD news.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

The Bush Telegraph: Worst. Sequel. Ever.

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/07

Donald Trump becomes the first convicted felon to win the Presidential race and will reenter the White House – again. URGH. Not least for women. Hannah and Mick’s yearned for monkey overlords remain frustratingly absent, but at least Gary Barlow’s massive son and the backpack-wearing rats are here.

Rated or Dated: Pulp Fiction (1994)

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/06

One of the “cool” movies of the 1990s, Quentin Tarantino’s masterpiece* is a carnival of violence and humour set to a banging soundtrack. It made stars of Samuel L Jackson and Uma Thurman, revitalised the careers of John Travolta and Bruce Willis, and basically gave Tarantino a blank cheque going forward. But did it tickle the pickle of Mick, Hannah and Jen? Or is it all Dick Dale and no trousers? *Discuss. That’s why we’re here, right? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Rae Mainwaring’s Bright Places

Standard Issue Podcast ·

2024/11/04

Writer and theatre-maker Rae Mainwaring was in her early 20s when she was diagnosed with Mutiple Sclerosis – MS as it's commonly known. All she knew of the autoimmune condition at the time was that every single representation she’d seen of it on TV was one of abject misery, which, ultimately, was not her experience of MS. Some years later, she wrote about her experiences in Bright Places, her Peggy Ramsay award-winning play and a deeply personal and authentic exploration of the condition. Jen caught
