🎙️ TV Shows 1982 – Thursday Throwbacks – LMBYTS #1482 – Jason Newland – 6th November 2025
🕒 Duration: 2 hours 13 minutes

💤 General Theme: This episode of Let Me Bore You to Sleep is a classic “Thursday Throwbacks” installment, where Jason takes a nostalgic journey back to TV shows from the year 1982. But—as is often the case—he wanders off into tangents about everything from Big Brother betrayals to dog walks in the dark. It’s cozy, chatty, and delightfully rambling.

📺 Main Topic: 1982 UK TV Retrospective Jason reflects on the big TV moments and programs from 1982, covering: 📡 Channel 4 Launch (Nov 2, 1982)

• Huge shift in UK television with the launch of Channel 4.
• Introduced alternative content:
  • Countdown (first-ever show aired)
  • Brookside
  • The Comic Strip Presents
  • The Tube

📺 Notable UK Shows & Debuts:

• The Young Ones – chaotic student life comedy
• Auf Wiedersehen, Pet – builders working in Germany
• Alo’ Alo’ (Pilot) – wartime parody
• Heidi Hi – peak popularity
• Play Your Cards Right – game show with Bruce Forsyth
• Treasure Hunt – starring Annika Rice (and her famously focused-on backside)
• Boone – courier drama Jason fondly remembers
• Russ Abbott’s Madhouse – new comedy show

🎭 American Imports:

• Knight Rider – a major hit (“do do do dooo”)
• Cheers – Jason started watching around 1984
• Fame – beloved by Jason (“I wanna live forever…”)
• Police Squad – “funniest show ever,” he laments not being able to find it online
• Hill Street Blues, Magnum, The A-Team – various crime/action imports
• Dynasty & Dallas – wealth, drama, and JR’s iconic status
• Fraggle Rock – Jason loved it (and quotes the Trash Heap!)

🐶 Tangents & Personal Stories: Jason being Jason, much of the transcript features his relaxed storytelling and commentary on life. Highlights include: 🐕 Dog Walk Woes:

• He doesn’t want to walk Vinnie in the dark anymore due to poor visibility and safety concerns.
• Decides to only walk him between 7am and 4pm.
• Discussion on sunrise/sunset times across the UK and the surprise that it varies by location.

💢 Big Brother Rant:

• Jason’s rant of the week is about being misled by Big Brother UK’s fake eviction setup.
• Feels "betrayed" by the producers' countdown stunt that didn’t lead to an actual eviction.
• Considers it “1000% misleading.”

🧠 Random Thoughts & Rants:

• Long musings on accents across the UK (north vs. south stress patterns).
• Wonders why kids aren’t taught a “neutral” English accent.
• Talks about bats, sunlight, dreams, scams via energy discount emails, and phone security.
• Ponders why Australians and New Zealanders have similar accents but get annoyed when confused for each other.
• Goes down a rabbit hole on how long it takes to travel between Australia and New Zealand by car (it doesn’t—you need a plane or boat!).
• Reminisces about the Big Breakfast, Mark Lamarr, Keith Chegwin, and the chaotic joy of 90s morning TV.

📚 Nerdy Nostalgia (and Wikipedia-esque Info Dumps): Jason dives deep into:

• Sunrise/sunset charts across UK cities
• Geographic trivia
• Time zones
• Flight durations
• TV cast lists (Alice, Cheers, Big Breakfast, etc.)
• Classic kids shows like Rainbow, Danger Mouse, SuperTed, Grange Hill, Why Don’t You?

🧵 Threaded Themes:

• Memory and nostalgia: Jason shares how...

👉 “Whisper Wednesday LMBYTS #1481 – Jason Newland – 5th November 2025”
(Duration: 1 hour, 12 minutes)

🧘‍♂️ Tone & Purpose This episode follows Jason Newland’s calming “Whisper Wednesday” format. It blends personal stories, idle musings, dream descriptions, daily routines, and light humor—all delivered in a quiet, soothing whisper meant to relax the listener and help them fall asleep. 💤 Main Segments & Themes 1. Opening & Context (~0:00–1:00)

• Jason introduces the episode early in the morning, highlighting the peaceful quiet of the early hours.
• Notes it’s an ideal time for whisper recordings (no interruptions from neighbors or his dog Vinny).

2. Dream Sequences (~1:00–9:30)

• Jason recounts a bizarre, vivid dream:
  • Watching celebrity boxing (with Tyson Fury and Ricky Hatton’s son).
  • Being asked to participate but declining.
  • Conversations about hospices and healthcare shortages.
  • A hypnotist with a grating voice attempting mass hypnosis.
  • Celebrity photo sessions with Tyson Fury.
• He analyzes the strangeness of the dream and reflects on dream-memory crossover.

3. The Pink Crocs Incident (~9:30–12:00)

• A real-life moment: He almost leaves home wearing indoor pink Crocs instead of shoes.
• Reflects on how adding socks disrupted his usual routine and caused the mix-up.

4. Jason’s Morning Routine (~12:00–30:00) A thorough, humorous breakdown of his routine before walking Vinny:

• Taking off his indoor cardigan and putting on outdoor clothes.
• Hydration, hygiene steps (mouthwash, deodorant).
• His philosophy on feet freedom—he prefers bare feet indoors.
• The great Sock Order Dilemma: right foot or left foot first? (Still unresolved 😄)
• Vinny’s wild reaction when Jason puts on socks—he associates it with going for a walk.
• Shoes, big cardigan, checking for poo bags (and how many to bring).
• Salutes a listener named Mike for a PayPal gift 🙌

5. Poo Bag Chronicles (~30:00–1:05:00) Yes, this became a dominant topic:

• The importance of quality poo bags (thin ones = “flimsiest, rubbishiest”).
• How cheap bags lead to awkward moments in windy weather or while struggling to open them.
• Jason’s strategy: pre-opening and organizing bags by pocket (right for bags, left for treats).
• Even compares using poor poo bags to wearing paper-thin clothing or “sensitive” materials (with colorful humor).
• Emphasizes preparedness and dignity in dog walking duties.

6. Guy Fawkes Night & Childhood Memories (~1:05:00–1:10:00)

• A brief, quirky explanation of Bonfire Night (5th November) in the UK.
• Reflects on the oddness of children celebrating a failed terrorist attack by burning effigies.
• Mentions “Penny for the Guy” traditions and bonfires in gardens.

7. Final Thoughts & Sign-Off (~1:10:00–end)

• Encourages listeners to be kind and gentle to themselves.
• Expresses appreciation for listeners’ support and reminds them they deserve to feel happy and safe.

🧩 Notable Moments & Highlights

• Sock Philosophy: "Freedom of feet" as a mini-personal manifesto.
• Poo Bag Preparedness: Presented almost like a TED Talk, with humor and passion.
• Dream Analysis: A dreamy mix of celebrity boxing, healthcare commentary, and group hypnosis.
• Whispered Humor: Even while whispering, Jason injects dry wit and gentle sarcasm.
• Bonfire Night Commentary: Delivers light British historical insight,...

👉 “Whisper Wednesday LMBYTS #1481 – Jason Newland – 5th November 2025”
(Duration: 1 hour, 12 minutes)

🧘‍♂️ Tone & Purpose This episode follows Jason Newland’s calming “Whisper Wednesday” format. It blends personal stories, idle musings, dream descriptions, daily routines, and light humor—all delivered in a quiet, soothing whisper meant to relax the listener and help them fall asleep. 💤 Main Segments & Themes 1. Opening & Context (~0:00–1:00)

• Jason introduces the episode early in the morning, highlighting the peaceful quiet of the early hours.
• Notes it’s an ideal time for whisper recordings (no interruptions from neighbors or his dog Vinny).

2. Dream Sequences (~1:00–9:30)

• Jason recounts a bizarre, vivid dream:
  • Watching celebrity boxing (with Tyson Fury and Ricky Hatton’s son).
  • Being asked to participate but declining.
  • Conversations about hospices and healthcare shortages.
  • A hypnotist with a grating voice attempting mass hypnosis.
  • Celebrity photo sessions with Tyson Fury.
• He analyzes the strangeness of the dream and reflects on dream-memory crossover.

3. The Pink Crocs Incident (~9:30–12:00)

• A real-life moment: He almost leaves home wearing indoor pink Crocs instead of shoes.
• Reflects on how adding socks disrupted his usual routine and caused the mix-up.

4. Jason’s Morning Routine (~12:00–30:00) A thorough, humorous breakdown of his routine before walking Vinny:

• Taking off his indoor cardigan and putting on outdoor clothes.
• Hydration, hygiene steps (mouthwash, deodorant).
• His philosophy on feet freedom—he prefers bare feet indoors.
• The great Sock Order Dilemma: right foot or left foot first? (Still unresolved 😄)
• Vinny’s wild reaction when Jason puts on socks—he associates it with going for a walk.
• Shoes, big cardigan, checking for poo bags (and how many to bring).
• Salutes a listener named Mike for a PayPal gift 🙌

5. Poo Bag Chronicles (~30:00–1:05:00) Yes, this became a dominant topic:

• The importance of quality poo bags (thin ones = “flimsiest, rubbishiest”).
• How cheap bags lead to awkward moments in windy weather or while struggling to open them.
• Jason’s strategy: pre-opening and organizing bags by pocket (right for bags, left for treats).
• Even compares using poor poo bags to wearing paper-thin clothing or “sensitive” materials (with colorful humor).

Title: Peaceful Places Trivia Tuesday – LMBYTS #1480 Jason Newland (4th November 2025)
Duration: 1 hour, 44 minutes

🧘‍♂️ Overview: Jason Newland presents a slow-paced, soothing "Let Me Bore You to Sleep" session themed around peaceful places around the world for Trivia Tuesday. As usual, it's an informal blend of light trivia, sleepy ramblings, personal anecdotes, and gentle humor — designed to help listeners relax or drift off.

🏡 Key Themes & Sections: 🐶 Personal Updates & Morning Routine (0:00 – ~10:00)

• Jason shares his morning with Vinny the dog, including multiple walks and odd sleeping patterns.
• Describes listening to classical music, falling asleep in his chair, and general life updates.
• Casual observations on sleep, smells in the room, and thank-yous to PayPal donors.

🌍 Trivia: Peaceful Places Around the World (10:00 – ~1:42:00) Jason gently transitions into his trivia theme with 50+ peaceful global facts, expanding on many of them in his trademark meandering style: 1. Bhutan & Gross National Happiness

• Bhutan values "GNH" over GDP.
• Jason explores its holistic philosophy: emotional well-being, sustainability, culture.

2. The Maldives

• Beautiful but only 8m above sea level.
• Jason wonders about rising tides and searches maps.

3. Iceland

• Peaceful nation with no army.
• Discusses its beauty, protection, and surprising history.

4. Greenland & Islands Debate

• Jason dives deep into what qualifies as an “island”.
• Fun facts about island sizes, population densities, and the naming oddities of Iceland vs. Greenland.

5. Japan

• Kyoto’s temples.
• Tea rituals and moss gardens.
• Fascination with Japanese culture and tech.

6. New Zealand

• Sheep-to-human ratio: 5:1.
• Dark sky sanctuaries for stargazing.
• Jason prefers NZ’s "Britishness" over Australia.

7. Canada

• Canoe routes, low population density (~10 people per sq. mile).
• Fun comparison with England & USA population density.

8. Lapland & Polar Bears

• Polar bears outnumber humans in Svalbard.
• Jason explores the risks and beauty of living among bears.

9. Switzerland

• More than 1,500 lakes.
• Peaceful train rides and punctuality as meditative.

10. Desert Places

• Atacama Desert: So quiet you can hear your heartbeat.
• Namibia, Sahara, American deserts — Jason daydreams about visiting them (with nearby diners 😄).

11. Cultural & Natural Peace Spots

• Santorini’s white houses.
• Norway’s fjords.
• Lake Louise in Canada.
• Bora Bora’s palm trees.
• Tuscany’s hills.
• Patagonia’s skies.
• Galápagos & Darwin.
• Nepalese monasteries, Iceland’s Blue Lagoon, French lavender fields, Kenya’s savannahs, etc.

Jason humorously questions trivia logic (e.g., “Why can’t someone visit 1,500 lakes in a lifetime?”), making tangents about traffic lights in Thailand, ancient books, polar bears in trash bins, and whether moss really matters (spoiler: it does). 🤓 Notable Tangents & Trivia Fun:

• What is GDP? Jason jokes it's “gross decrepit peanuts” before looking it up.
• Swans vs. Kangaroos: Swans have “attitude like kangaroos.”
• Blue Lagoon = Movie nostalgia (“Boobies!” he exclaims 😂).
• Oldest books & pens: Researches 32,000-year-old writing tools and ancient texts.
• Island population densities: Deep dive into why Canada has 10 people per square mile and New York has 29,000+.
• Traffic law chaos in Thailand: Crossing 4-lane roads requires policewoman escorts.
