Resident Groucho Club DJ - Dave Flack | Ep.163 | This British Life Podcast

Season 1 · Episode 163

jeudi 29 août 2024 • Duration 01:15:02

Today's episode has a man with over 30 years experience of DJing in London's Trendy Soho, along with many decades as resident DJ at the world-renowned arts & media private members establishment... The Groucho Club.

The conversation starts with a story about Violin playing over the ocean (not Dave) onto his experiences DJing at places such as Ayia Napa, Ibiza and the various hot-spots within Soho.

We hear about Dave's humble beginnings growing up in Hackney, onto rubbing shoulders with celebs (as you do) in leafy Hampstead.

We also get to hear about his hobby, which is very unusual for a DJ (and how far he takes it). Of course we get to hear about many of Dave's work around various Licensed venues all around London and how he actually started DJing.

Oh and we also touch on the gatekeepers to licensed venues... The Doorman. Plus a couple of stories of someone who was know as 'King of The Bouncers' and 'Britains Hardest Man'?

All this and lots, lots more!

Episode #70 Guide To... Witch-Hunts

lundi 2 mars 2020 • Duration 02:04:40

Starting off with the historical witch-hunts of Medieval Europe, we explore how a shift in the Church's position lead to the torture and executions of tens of thousands of innocent people until reason and justice turned the tide. Shockingly though, the murder of "witches" continues to this day. Then it's onto the metaphorical witch-hunts of the 20th and 21st Centuries, in particular McCarthyism, "cancel culture" and Trade Unions turning on their own. And Theo and Andrew are left stunned that Charles does not have a story about an encounter with a witch. Not even on a train.

lundi 24 février 2020 • Duration 01:28:32

Theo, Charles and Andrew discuss the return of one of their favourite shows, 'This Country', and the creative process of putting together a mockumentary. Then it's on to the US Election, with Mystic Theo making more predictions, before we dive back into the world of pop culture to dissect female-led films. Also: Theo continues to wrestle with whether he is pro-Bane or pro-Thanos and speaking of super-villains, Charles tells us about another of his 'Strange Encounters' ("So there was this couple who were convinced I was trying to kill them...).

This week, Andrew and Theo welcome back the Vialucci Podcast's resident film critic John Higgins. John makes us an offer we can't refuse: the chance to find out what his favourite gangster films are. We'll also be discussing some honourable mentions, the evolution of the genre and reciting our favourite quotes.

Episode #66 Andrew, Charles and Theo

lundi 27 janvier 2020 • Duration 01:19:54

It's Episode 66 of the Vialucci Podcast and this week Charles, Theo and Andrew get together to talk news stories including the Grenfell Tower inquiry, the coronavirus and the ill-gotten gains of Africa's richest woman. Analysing these subjects leads the hosts to discuss conflicts of interests, hypocrites, sociopaths and how the news cycle churns through events. Things then take a turn for the very, very strange after we invite Charles to talk about a friend of his who EATS SPAGHETTI WITH HIS HANDS. It's just the beginning of a horrifying saga that leaves Theo and Andrew (almost) speechless.

Episode #65 Theo, Andrew and Charles

lundi 20 janvier 2020 • Duration 01:43:31

This week on the Vialucci Podcast; Theo, Charles and Andrew get together for a good old fashioned Royal Ramble. Speaking of Royals, we discuss the imminent departures of Harry and Meghan, which leads Theo to reveal he once predicted such an event and he also provides other predictions. Sadly none of these can be time-stamped since his watch is broken. Also, a surprising amount of time is given over to World War Z (both the book and its movie adaptation), leading to talk of The End Times which includes killer drones, Love Island and who controls outer space. In such scary times, only one person can save us: Mr. Wizard. But who is he and what powers does he have? All will be revealed on episode 65 of the Vialucci Podcast!

Episode #64 Guide To... THE SIMPSONS

mardi 14 janvier 2020 • Duration 01:50:38

This week on the Vialucci Podcast, hosts Theo, Charles and Andrew take a look at the history of 'The Simpsons'. We realised during our recordings of the podcast that we quite often make some kind of reference to 'The Simpsons', whether it's a direct quote or how the show has an uncanny ability to predict current events.So we felt it was high time we touch on how this iconic cartoon has permeated the culture, how it all began, how it has changed over time and if and when it might finally come to an end. We also discuss controversies ranging from internal struggles within 'The Simpsons' production, its rivalries with other cartoons that has either lead to reconciliation or deepening divisions, the "Problem With Apu" (and also the "Problem With A Poo"), the many, many cameos, which storylines have not aged well and those that have stood the test of time. Regardless of what you may think of 'The Simpsons' now, like Theo, Charles and Andrew you'll probably laugh along as we share some of our favourite moments from its 'Golden Age', and feel a sense of warmth when discussing more heartfelt scenes. So jump on the sofa, open up a can of that wonderful Duff and say your prayers you heathen baboons!
