Would you believe it, we hitched the Rambling Club shed to the back of Tony's old Jalopy and, for one night only, found ourselves live at the Edinburgh Fringe!
Along the way we're not only joined by our audience but by two guest presidents, Mitch Benn and Mike McShane so come and join us as they lead us on two rambles chosen entirely at random by our audience in Assembly Studio 3, Edinburgh!
As ever, the omniscient voice of Sir Stephen Fry is on hand to keep a hand on the tiller of the good ship toss!
First stop is destination number 853: Italian Fiction. To be honest, this doesn't get a second glance, because tonight was a night to celebrate our wonderful President, Tony Slattery! Luckily we encountered Mitch Benn on our first ramble so any thoughts of the Renaissance faded quickly away. A ramble instead about how our wonderful Tony was responsible for Mitch's own career!
Next we're heading toward 472: The Etymology of Classical Latin. Once again the team are saved from having to the think of something to say on this suibject by the intervention of Mike McShane! Mike and Tony worked together for years, and it's time for a ramble which delves deep into their friendship and how a certain producer found himself on the receiving end of a can of Sure deodorant.
After all that it’s time to head back down the garden path to Tony’s shed, to round off with Mike McShane reading the titles "in the style of..."
Tony Slattery’s Rambling Club is a free-associating conversation, involving very special guests. It drops every Friday on every podcasting outlet known to man. We’d love it if you came along for the walk. If
nothing else, it’ll help you get your steps in!
