Arthur Smith has Landed

Hello lock in listener/readers,

The (largely) un-edited version of the Arthur Smith interview that we conducted on the 9th of December is now present. Listening through it, i can't say what elements of a traditional interview it has going for it, but it was a lot of fun as a first attempt. We hope for this to be the debut of our new prolific series 'The Lock In Interviews...'

The interview certainly seems to have our personality stamp on it. Whether that's to its benefit or not is up to you to decide, but it should make for some pretty enjoyable listening.

We intend to revisit this recording to edit it more throughly and see if we can extract a more factual, professional interview out of it, rather than the light-hearted discussion that it is at the moment. We'll also almost certainly include an updated version where we talk before and after about some of our thoughts about our very first interview and meeting the man himself.

Here's the link to podbean, though we'll almost certainly find a better way to host content soon:

The promise of things to come

Here at Lock in HQ we tire ourselves out constantly to keep up with the many many broken promises that we make on a weekly basis. By this I mean promises of podcasts and youtube and soundcloud and many other different facets through which to enjoy your favourite asinine radio fun.

Unfortunately up until now we have failed on nearly every account of staying true to these promises. However, I am writing to you today, loyal lock in listeners, with a new promise, a promise of a new age of lock in workload and output. Where you'll be seeing regular podcasts, photos, new mediums and even some videos that take you deeper into the twisted psyche of your two charming hosts.

This blog is the place to be for all this and more. Expect daily updates about what progress we're making towards striking it big, along with extra little treats for you along the way. Things to look out for in the very near future include the infamous first episode of our new sub-series 'The lock in interviews...'. This debut episode featured none other than alternative comedian and famed grumpy old man Arthur Smith. As well as the terrifyingly funny 6th lock in podcast! - I know 6 is a small number, I told you we were lazy.

On an interesting and related note, I found out recently that keeping a daily blog can really help to boost your google search engine rating. So hopefully if we can keep up with this when you google 'the lock in radio show' you should be able to find us closer to the top of the first page. The way it was explained to me was something to do with google having robotic spiders that crawl all over your writing and grab the key words (an explanation I've almost certainly misunderstood). So hello google spiders. Help yourself to some snacks from the kitchen and feel free to build a comfy web on the best blog in town.

That's all for now. See you tomorrow listeners/readers (and robo-spiders)
