House To Astonish: On Tour
As part of our bid to take over the universe, you can hear representatives of House to Astonish on not one, but two other podcasts right now.
First off, there’s the episode of The Thumbcast that we recorded on Tuesday evening, where we joined Thumbcast hosts Iain Hepburn and Craig McGill, along with Tachyon TV‘s Damon Querry and podcasting guru Ewan Spence, to record a SF, cult TV and generally geeky version of the BBC radio show Fighting Talk. You’ll find it at the Thumbcast’s website here, and it’s also available on iTunes. NB: contains swearing, dark comedy and references to 40-year-old UK TV shows.
Also, if you don’t normally check out the superb comics podcast Awesomed by Comics, you might want to give this episode a try, and listen for a familiar voice giving his opinions on Siege: Loki.
Hilarious, fellas. Al’s bit that ends with Amy Acker was my favrit.

Thumbcast was funny, but I suspect I’d have understood a lot more of the jokes if I were British.
Am I the only one who can’t download the Thumbcast? (granted, I am using my phone, but that doesn’t stop me d/ling HtA)

“Thor’s fat mate Volstagg could, of course, be Pi.”
I lawl’d so hard.
We need swearing on the House to Astonish podcast.
That was great fun, but the audio levels were all over the place.
I understood way more of the UK television references than I suspect is healthy.
“That was great fun, but the audio levels were all over the place.”
Yeah, I listen when out walking, and for a lot of this I actually had to pause it until I got somewhere quieter, as I literally couldn’t hear a thing that was being said. Very funny though.
Ditto. i tried listening in the car and between the levels and the accents, had to wait until i got home to listen.
Congrats to Paul
I actually was able to get into the swing of Thunbcast fairly easily, given how FIGHTING TALK was, at its basic nature, the American ESPN show AROUND THE HORN.
The audio kept rising and falling, but it was interesting…and I’d pay to watch The Cybermen versus The French.
Yeah, the audio levels made it unlistenable for me – I had two goes at it, once while waiting for a bus and once in my office, but gave up both times before the time counter reached 15:00.
“FIGHTING TALK was, at its basic nature, the American ESPN show AROUND THE HORN”
Or, alternatively, you could say ‘Fighting Talk’ was, at its basic nature, like the BBC 5 Live radio show ‘Fighting Talk’…
