Danny Wallace's Important Broadcast

Steve has a lot to unload this week. Luckily, The Great Leader bears the weight of a thousand men, so it is no challenge. Firstly, there are Steve's international piano lessons. Then, there's the issue of how many times he might have to go and see 'the new Nolan.' The Great Leader simply listens and advises better than any wiseman ever could. He is flawless.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Em (Emily).

Thank you.

When The Great Leader asks "who else is doing this on the radio?" it means he's about to do something that, quite literally, nobody else would dare to do on the radio. Such is his courage. Steve, to his credit, will back The Great Leader through all of this and for that he, too, should be commended. This week there are conversations which include milk, sitcoms and Father Christmas. Enjoy.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Tony (48).

Thank you.

The Great Leader has given it a huge amount of thought and has decided that 'Retail Roulette' (an idea that the IBS half-heartedly tried out last week) could, in theory, potentially, in the right market conditions, become a semi-regular feature, depending on many factors... So that's exciting. Plus, Steve has been chatting to his bin, so there's a lot to unpack there.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Alfie.

Thank you.

Most British people have spent all summer talking about the weather and The Great Leader reflects that beautifully, in todays programme. Then Steve continues to talk about the weather and if anything it all gets silly after that. Plus, a return to Heathrow business hotels and PERHAPS the birth of the NEXT BIG THING on British radio.

Thank you.

The Great Leader is unpredictable. He will lead you hither, thither, up hill, down dale but never up a blind alley. He will ALWAYS surprise you. This week, Steve returned from his honeymoon a new and married man. There was much focus on this, as well as a live UFO investigation and one of Steve's Top 10 hilarious moments of confusion.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Lisa Evans.

Thank you.

For some reason, Michelle Michelle Michelle has demanded that Steve go away on something she insists on calling a "honeymoon." For that reason, Steve is absent this week, but the IBS team understands that he will return next week. Until then, a disturbing update on Silver Lightning, much discussion on the Anglesey Panic and a dog doing a wee PERILOUSLY close to The Great Leader.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Lynn's bloke.

Thank you.

The Great Leader is so powerful. He has such influence. That aside, however, he is an odd man. He was an odd boy too and this is only proven further today. Meanwhile, Steve pontificates on the Dartford Crossing and how often Queen Elizabeth II might have visited it and there's a paranormal update from Anglesey.

This week's podcast is dedicated to The Nameless 16 Year Old, of Ian's.

Thank you.

As the final moments before his wedding tick by, Steve considers ways to save a bit of money. Meanwhile, it's rare that The Great Leader's subordinates will question, or mock him... But sometimes it happens and the consequences are shocking.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Louise.

Thank you.

It's Prime Minister Eve! Who's excited?! However you're spending it, just try to get an early night and don't overdo it. This week, Steve kept his birthday a secret, to see if anybody noticed. Find out what happened. Plus, The Great Leader had a currywurst this week, so you know it's been a a good one.

This week's podcast is dedicated to THE Steve Ferdinando. He's 5oz of lovely, 3 tablespoons of silly, 4 fl oz of fun and a pinch of gorgeous. Season to taste.

Thank you.

The energy was all over the place today. At times it was frivolous and others, entirely absent. The Great Leader maintained control throughout, but there was no doubt about the energy. Steve couldn't settle himself down before the game last night, so he played on his yoga mat for a bit. Meanwhile, The Great Leader recalls the time he inconvenienced Stephen Merchant.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Phil.

Thank you.

There was huge excitement inside and specifically above the studio today. HUGE excitement. The Great Leader contained it with ease, though, as you'd expect. As The IBS grow closer to Steve's nuptials, there is much business to attend to, like what his wife's name will be. Plus, what should you say if a friend says "I love you" and are you watching the game tonight?

This week's podcast is dedicated to Mick.

Thank you.

If you're reading this and you're trying to gain some insight into this episode, think... Would The Great Leader want you going in, armed with prior knowledge? Well... It might not hurt. This episode will challenge what you think about novelty t-shirts and confound your expectations of what somebody might do if they visited somewhere called "Zip World". The Great Leader will give you most precious look into how he answers his children's questions and a YouGov survey might just have hit the nail on the head.

Thank you.

You can say what you like, but there are no flies on Steve. He gets it. But does he get it in the same way that The Great Leader gets it? No. No, he doesn't. The Great Leader gets it and if anybody sits in His seats... THEY get it. Got it? All of that (whatever it means), plus, opera, Got Got Need and some hand signals.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Ksenia's husband.

Thank you.

Scottish football fans were thrilled as they woke up this morning, but it fell to Danny Wallace, The Great Leader to deliver some very unfortunate news. On a lighter note, there were some brilliant deals to snap up in "What's Your Deal?" and Steve enjoyed an evening of culture, which he was more than happy to tell everyone about.

The Important Broadcast bid farewell to it's radio neighbours today, with Ed Gamble & Matthew Crosby departing Radio X. Go well, chaps. Once that was taken care of, it was back to business, including MORE stag-do's for Steve, an unfortunate school visit for The Great Leader and a welcome return for Dinner Winner.

Thank you.

Steve's wedding continues to hove into view and he's been on a stag do, so what happened? The Great Leader wasn't invited, that's for sure. No matter, because he was far too busy with much higher-minded matters. Plus, three dedications (see below) and a deep-dive into the historical accuracy of The Flintstones.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Jamie Huggett, Charlotte GLC & "name withheld" and Noah Taylor.

Thank you.

You might think it unusual for The Great Leader, to call the shots at Steve's wedding, but he's darn well going to. Steve has moved forwards with some plans, but he'll have to see whether Danny agrees. Plus, AI being used by EVERY company on Earth, a library-based life hack and a troubling toothbrush tale.

The Great Leader travels many hours to impart his words to you. Just stop. Give him your attention. LISTEN. This week, he attempted humour in his local WhatsApp group and it may not have been understood. Meanwhile, Steve describes an apparently indescribable kitchen implement and makes an excellent joke in good company.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Asha & the twins.

Thank you.

The Great Leader doesn't have 'good' or 'bad' shows. The Great Leader just has shows... Magnificent, era-defining, colossal shows. However, The Great Leader IS working with mortals and those mortals will make mistakes. They are human. It is an insult to Him, but they are only human. Steve is only human and that's why he gets so angry about his little car getting dented. Plus, cable aggression, scandal at the chip shops and a guest judge for Dinner Winner!

London's streets filled with running dorks today and that is something The Great Leader finds very troubling. Steve on the other hand, is full of joy and peace, because it turns out he's making quite a splash on the yoga scene.

Thank you.

It's a shame to have to write it, but Dinner Winner was once more dragged into the realms of controversy. You'll already know who is responsible. The Great Leader had a 'busy week' this week. That meant he'd been using his printer a lot. Plus, a broken iPad, some money making tips and Donald Trump... A TIME TRAVELLER?!

The Important Broadcast does not comment on any legal entanglements it may or not be involved in, at any time. No comment. This week, The Great Leader's specially appointed hairdresser surprised him. He needs to consider her observations. Meanwhile, Steve has been offered a job or two. Possibly...

Steve has had many theories over the years, but this week he reckons his car is out to get him. Give it a chance. Plus, The Great Leader demands a game involving old sounds (see an episode from a few weeks ago) and that's exactly what he gets.

This week's podcast is dedicated to Matt.

Thank you.

The Great Leader is patient, but only to a point. If the cat (Chores) and the dog (Hassle) push him too far... That patience will run out. This week, Steve seizes upon an opportunity to recover costs and an invitation for the listener to be positive falls flat.

A veritable feast of great variety this week. One moment The Great Leader enchants you with tales of household chores in uniform and the next, Steve's runs out of puff at the car wash. There's a guest judge, haunted dolls, a parking match up and the flying squad!

The Important Broadcast always has eyes and ears in exactly the right places, which is why Steve was dispatched to Manchester to attend the Brit Awards last night. Just WAIT until you here how much gossip he's brought back. Meanwhile, The Great Leader has made an enormous impact... Using only seven words. Just, wow.

This week's podcast is dedicated (late, owing to various factors) to Catherine.

Thank you.

When you really think about it, there are lots of sounds you used to hear 30 years ago, which have fallen silent in the intervening years. When's the last time you heard a cassette rewind?? EXACTLY. This is the podcast that makes you think those thoughts and confront those feelings in an incredibly engaging way. Plus, The Great Leader gets very, VERY wet.

The Great Leader prepares, curates and meditates upon his lessons for hundreds of hours, before he delivers them to thine ears.

Thanks to his many, many loyal followers, The Great Leader did not forget his wedding anniversary this year. This was a real one in the eye for his wife. What a victory for Him. As well as celebrations of this very thing, Steve has actually fulfilled a promise and watched a film about Loch Ness. Was it any good?

A shop owner was lucky enough to welcome The Great Leader into their emporium this week. The Great Leader did not disappoint them and made a grand purchase. Meanwhile, Steve watched a film.

It would be pointless to suggest that The Great Leader was 'starting 2026 as he means to go on.' Everything He does happens precisely when and because He means it to. That said, 2026 began with great intention. An epic seasonal trip to Switzerland from The Great Leader and a raft of predictions for the year ahead, from Steve.

The Great Leader knows that Christmas is approaching and whilst he will observe that fact, he doesn't want it to distract you. Do not let it distract you. This week, Steve has been to Berlin (again) and there's the small business of the Dinner Winner Semi-Final of 2025.

Steve's body has endured many things over 35 years, but this week, it underwent a comprehensive test, which was carried out (for reasons which aren't completely clear) to determine his biological age. Whilst The Great Leader didn't explicitly sign off on this, he was content for the results to be delivered on the radio, to the nation.

Despite the serious and sober nature of The Important Broadcast, there was an almost playful mood this week and many games took place as a result...

Look, any fool can do a phone-in show on the radio. It takes a real leader to reverse the phone lines and call the listener. That's exactly what happened in this special edition podcast. The temperature of the nation has been taken and the results are encouraging.

Enjoy.

400 Modules. What a milestone, eh? Or is it? Should it be celebrated? He will decide. Prepare for some harrowing insights into Steve's fact-finding mission in France, some offerings (or absence of), some poetry and some (French) parking. Just the way you like it.

The last time The Great Leader permitted a guest into The Important Broadcast arena, it was October 2020. This week, he flung open the doors once more, to welcome podcaster, author and very nice man, Andy McGrillen. Plus, how big are giraffes, really?

Still reading this blurb? Fair play. Last week, the title and blurb made reference to a part of the programme that was completely missed out of the podcast. Isn't it mad that it can even happen? Let alone how often it happens. It's like calling something "The Horse Show" and letting people buy tickets, only to discover there aren't any horses. This week, the "What's Your Deal" segment that should have been included last week, is now available for your enjoyment. Just a week late. Please accept the apologies of the enormous team who work behind the scenes on The Important Broadcast. There are so many of them. Literally too many to name. It would be impossible to know whose fault it was.

Thank you.

It was an extremely busy week for the cute boys as producer Joe(’s wife) had a baby, the great leader took his son for Lemonade and Steve invented a hair cut... If that’s not enough to hook you in for a serious listen then that’s your problem.

Thank you.

The world of the supernatural knows no bounds. It can influence our lives when and wherever, at any time. So what about football matches? There's no reason to think it isn't possible. This week, The Great Leader shares spooky testimony from the footballing game. Plus, even more Volvo facts and Steve's new passport.d

Do you ever think that Timpson doesn't get enough mentions on The Important Broadcast? No worries, the IBS are on it. The Great Leader joined an extremely elite club this week, whilst Steve went to The Brits and failed to collect the required information. Plus, a practical joke falls flat, coal-fired pizza and The Important Broadcast extends BEYOND 1pm!

Thank you.

In today's intro, a lovely lady called in to Radio X, but got more than she bargained for. Whilst this happened for real, her words have been re-voiced, to protect her anonymity. She was lovely. What else happens?! Dinner Winner, What's Your Deal, Steve's Film Review and an engaging story about a taxi driver who wished only to be paid in cash. BEGIN!

The Great Leader did a kind thing for a friend this week, but was met with short shrift by an online sales person. Steve did another Film Review and gave his (quite loose) predictions for the BAFTAs. Plus, emergency texts, more Mark Wahlberg and a big accusation.

This week’s podcast is dedicated to Andrew. Sorry Andrew.

Thank you.

Steve decided to do riddles this week... That was without consulting anybody else and with absolutely no warning. The Great Leader allowed this, which we must trust was the right thing. Elsewhere, He pontificated upon the phenomenon of 'spontaneous combustion' and encouraged you to get a deal on an Eternal Rose.

Imagine a television channel entirely dedicated to one particular show from the early 2000s. It would play a loop of endless episodes, each subtly different, but still familiar enough to have droning in the background. Imagine no longer, for this is a reality enjoyed in The Great Leader's own kitchen. Why not do the same in YOUR kitchen?! Plus, Steve's comprehensive review of 'Wicked' and a lengthy discussion on dishwasher tablet choice.

Thank you.

The Great Leader is awash with your correspondence this week. Imagine a great, strong and wise man up to his powerful neck in letters, postcards, perfumed notes and parcels. This is how we find him, except all the correspondence is digital. Aside from your missives, He muses upon wassailing, children's parties and the nature of time itself (it's a construct).

Thank you.

The world is an unkind, unpredictable place. The Great Leader doesn't promise you kindness, nor does he promise you predictability, but he can give you the solid golden promise of wisdom, swift judgement and the right way of doing things. This week, Steve watched another film and his thoughts may surprise you - plus, how can Jake Humphrey improve a trip to the pub with your significant other?

Thank you.

It should be known that the emotions flag is waved in this weeks module, but it is well balanced with a story that will warm the heart, so that's good. The Great Leader is at full strength for the first Important Broadcast of 2025. He has stories of Great British beer, truck simulation and there is much talk of the need to get back to work tomorrow. Feast now, dear listener, on his words.

We all adore The Great Leader. We recognise Him and ONLY Him as our One True Broadcaster. But, have you ever given even a seconds thought to where he came from? From whence did he draw his power? Hone his beautiful craft? In a special 3 part documentary contained herein, Classic FM legend and all round good egg Tim Lihoreau narrates the origin story that we've all waited so long to hear. Plus, Steve's inevitable predictions and some useless information learned across 2024 in a special Tell Me Something I Don't Know.

After all the build up and the Christmas parties where you didn't know anyone (or is that just Steve?), it's almost time to start peeling potatoes... Or not. If you don't like potatoes, don't bother. The Great Leader wishes for you to spend this time broadly at peace. Not completely at peace of course, but he will allow you a moment or two of quiet, solemn reflection, as long as you are reflecting upon Him and Him alone.

It's here! It's Dinner Winner GRAND FINAL day!!!! We wait all year for it and it delivered in spades for 2024. But who emerged victorious? Plus, has Steve opened a digital portal into another dimension and Senior Listener Sharon has done it again!

There's definitely something going around at the moment and it isn't just Christmas spirit. The Great Leader, however, remains in perfect condition. He prowls like a beastly wild cat, but the sort of wild cat that can construct beautiful sentences to convey his enormous thoughts. That sort. Gird your ears for an early December treat, which includes, but is not limited to, Christmas trees, cats, small talk and a the Dinner Winner Semi-Final!

The super, soaraway Radio X Important Broadcast Podcast returns, as you knew it would, for it's 356th official outing. It begins with a horrific thing The Great Leader saw on his journey in, moves seamlessly into an extremely official ceremony, reveals Steve's terrible small talk performance and eventually concludes with a big question... "How long can you leave a glass of water out?"

Only very few mortals on Earth have ever lain hands on The Great Leader. To do so without express permission would be an offence, punishable by a hefty rap on the knuckles. This week, someone was given the chance to touch him for a prolonged period and he was quite uncomfortable. Meanwhile, Steve becomes confused about the difference between an 'invention' and an 'idea'.

Please dedicate the appropriate time and attention to this weeks broadcast. The Great Leader brings word from the MOT testing centre, but will it be good or bad? Plus, Steve returns from a fact finding mission, with tales of fish and penguins.

TRIGGER WARNING: Today's podcast dedication contains a mention of suicide.

The Great Leader loves you: Not in the conventional sense, but in the way that a Supreme All Seeing Leader loves his people, or his cats. This week, he made a kind gesture to his darling Mother, which backfired and Steve went for a very long run.
