NERVE
A Little Bit Racey began life on Nerve Radio, Bournemouth University’s
student radio station, where I joined the production team before soon
becoming the regular host and a co-writer on the show. From there,
we went from strength to strength, with the show winning the Nerve
Award for “Best Specialist”, judged by producers from
the BBC. HOPE FM
Once graduation was on the horizon, the show found a new home on 90.1
Hope FM, a community station in Bournemouth, as part of Livewire Live
– a 2 hour comedy show. Panellists included old Nerve favourites,
as well as the various members of Livewire Live and their associates.
CORNUCOPIA
After a full year on Hope.FM, the show found its way to Cornucopia
Radio, an audio production company based in Sheffield. This move allowed
us to release the episodes as podcasts, and produce numerous focused
multi-episode series of a much higher standard, along with themed
specials in between. Equally, it afforded us further opportunities
to bring in new comedic talent from Edinburgh Fringe and local improv
groups, on top of our classic panellist roster.
The episodes have also been broadcast on live radio, as part of Cornucopia’s
regular shows on Sheffield Live and basic.FM, as well as a mixture
of classic and brand new Racey through Upload Radio in 2017. A Little
Bit Racey was one of three nominees for Best Comedy at the UK Podcasters
Awards in 2015, and was a finalist nominee for Best UK Podcast at
the awards in 2016. The fourth series, recorded and released across
2017, also marked the first ever live show on February 8th, hosted
at DINA venue, supported by improv groups, The Shrimps, Faffing About
and The Antics - the event was well received and can be listened to
through the link on the right, alongside all of the other episodes. |

Four panelists race against a time
limit of just three minutes to reach a destination. They begin from
different starting points and use an assortment of companions, objects
and modes of transport, but they must keep everything together with
them when they travel. They must also overcome their opponent, provided
by another panelist, who will fire off obstacles to try and stop them.
