Canadian comedian and writer Zach Mitchell spent an entire summer vacation listening to every existing Goon Show. While others on the beach were indulging in aquatic horseplay, flicking towels at each other or kicking sand in the faces of skinny sunbathers, Zach was on board Ned Seagoon's snow-plough, avoiding falling pianos outside London embassies and taking up the flugelhorn as a precaution against the dreaded lurgi!

This week he joins Tyler to talk about his love for the show - he mounts a robust defence of Series 8, is bewildered by its seeming obsession with knees and is keen to examine Spike Milligan's motives behind some of the show's more 'questionable' content. As well as older comedy they discuss more contemporary offerings, including The Simpsons, The Young Ones (ok, sure, it IS 40 years old but a mere stripling as compared to The Goon Show or The Honeymooners) and even Tim & Eric.

They even briefly go all Late Review and talk about Kafka and how his work partly influenced Milligan - or not.

It's a fun chat with a lot of diversions - well, what do you expect with this show?
