BIP BOP BOOM PRESENTS: UNITED STATES OF BOOM

A new show by award-winning producers (British Podcast Awards, Webby & Lovie Awards) raging against the kid music machine that is a "fab music show" (The Guardian), "really inventive & innovative stuff" (BBC Radio). Pirate radio for parents is a show for cool cats with kids, making mornings a little less evil and life at home a bit more bearable.

UNITED STATES OF BOOM: An epic audio adventure road trip - 50 states. 50 indie record stores. 50 songs that need to be in every kid’s record collection. With our ability to travel currently restricted, and musicians and independent record stores struggling to survive in the midst of a pandemic, we decided to embark upon an audio adventure across the United States to amplify a different kind of American noise (whilst supporting music charities, too). Come with us a we shine a spotlight on one independent record in each state to learn about their shop, the local music scene and pick up an exclusive, hand curated record selection too.

THE FUTURE IS LISTENING

In the always-on broadcasting world of today, turns out we suck at listening.

But what if listening better - to ourselves, each other and the world around us - is the secret to a happier, more fulfilling life?

This is a podcast to help people of all ages learn how to be better listeners through research, technology and culture - and explore how our ears impact our mind, body and soul. We talk to expert listeners including doctors, technologists, interpreters, teachers, researchers, artists, and inspiring people from all walks of life to learn this invisible super power and strengthen our listening muscles.

Join the bad listener club and see how listening better can be life-changing, invigorating and dare we say….fun.

THE MUSIC BEHIND

We asked the same set of questions to some of the greatest musical minds of today, ranging from David Lynch collaborator Angelo Badalamenti to musical maestro Chilly Gonzales to in-demand producer and label boss, Johnny Jewel. Listen to find out what music has inspired them in their lives.
