Sidepodradio - Best of 2009

Published

Audio preview

With the end of year bringing so much nostalgia, it seemed only fair that Sidepodradio got it's own best of podcast. There was plenty of source material to work from, and I can present to you 24 hours worth of shows, whittled down to 20 minutes. Enjoy.

The magical moments of Sidepodradio are all included - remember when Mr C was confused about spoons, or when Steven revealed all about Major Tom? How about when Lukeh gave the FIA some pointers on how to make F1 more fun, or Sean cleared up some sporting confusion for us?

All that and more you will find in this round up of the marathon event, and if you're inspired by what you hear, why not put some thoughts down for Sidepodradio 2?



Sidepodradio Gives You Wings for Life

Published

By Christine Blachford

It's taken a little longer than I'd hoped but I can now confirm that our £680.00 donation to Wings for Life has been completed. Everyone's hard work and generosity on the Sidepodradio event has paid off and the money is going to a fantastic cause.

Red Bull wrote about our combined efforts, and we also had a note from Anita Gerhardter, the Managing Director of Wings for Life, who said:

Thank you so much for featuring our foundation in your show (specially liked the muffin cooking part ;-)) and passing on the donations to Wings for Life. We very much appreciate your support and we can guarantee that 100 % of the donations will be used to finance research projects as all administrative costs of Wings for Life are covered by our founders. We support scientific projects all over the world. For three years now we also finance a project that is investigated at the university of Cambridge by Prof. Mark Kotter. So our foundation does also have a close relationship with the UK :-) Attached you will find our information brochure where you can find some more interesting facts about our work.

I've put the pdf on the drop, if you would like any further information about where your donations are going.

All in all, a success, I think you'll agree. Here's to the next Sidepodradio!
