audiobook.

fed up with the contents of my ipod at the moment so fancy someone to tell me a story, what’s good for a solo 6hr drive?

Terry Pratchett. Any of the Discworld. Or Good Omens with Neil Gaiman. Dark yet funny.

Cabin Pressure. Radio 4 comedy series from a couple of years ago. 25 episodes at half an hour per ep will get you there and back.

Dan Brown – Inferno
it’s on the bay that is run by pirates.

War and Peace?

Alan Partridge’s book

Alan Partridge’s book

+1, genuine laugh out loud, from the first few sentences.

The smell my cheese moment from his perspective is briliant

A scanner darkly – Phil K Dick

+1 for Alan Partridge

+1 for Alan Partridge

not a massive coogan fan so partridge will be a no-no. will look at the others…

Not quite an audiobook but the Mighty Boosh radio series is absolute genius as is the League of Gentlemen. Might not be too good an idea listening to stuff that funny whilst driving though!

hitchhikers guide to the galaxy frumpt radio many years ago

quality of the highest order

Download a bunch of the In Our Time podcasts on subjects you’re interested in.

Can’t believe you don’t like Partridge.

How about a Michel Thomas language CD? Not really ‘entertainment’ but you can make productive use of your time. We did it on the way down to France and found it quite useful.

righto.

a scanner darkly it is.

off into the world of sci-fi I go!!

Podcasts? Velocast and velocast tech5 are good. As is ‘answer me this’ and the infinite monkey cage.

Earth Search 1 and 2 by James Follet, Radio dramatization, Excellent story, 10 off 30 minute episodes.

I downloaded Dom Jollys book for the same purpose. It is about dark tourism, visiting lebanon, North Korea etc. very good, interesting and funny. Can’t remember what is is called but should be easy enough to find.

HHG2TG is well worth it!

I seem to spend a large amount of travel time listening to ISAHAC, though!

Radio 4 downloads. Infinite Monkey Cage worth it alone.

The Joe Rogan Experience Podcast

Best thing ever

Use your iPad to play games instead. Its amazing how many were doing so on the m25 today in slow moving traffic.

Nothing at all. Watch the world go by and let your thoughts wander.

Lord of the Rings from the old Radio 4 adaptation

A scanner darkly narrated by Paul Giamatti. Listened to the whole thing in several sittings.

Properly messed up psychedelia!
