HAPPY & WE KNOW IT

We are back! Did you miss us? Do you even know who we are because we certainly don't?! If you do know, would you mind telling us? Shout it at your laptop or mobile device followed by a short, guttural scream and we are bound to get the message. If you have been hotly anticipating an update to the IF YOU ARE HAPPY & YOU KNOW IT story we're sure you have been staring at a damp patch of your wall for the past year, slowly realising with dread that we might never return and you will be trapped forever in a state of narrative paralysis for which the only cure is several poorly written TV adaptations of beloved books series - well fear no more.  Listen in to find out just where the hell we have been all this time, just where the hell the Salesman has been all this time and where the hell those pair of tweezers you keep losing have gone, have you checked behind the sofa? We've got kelp, we've got murder, we've got a potnetially kelp related murder.This is our MOST recent episode yet (until we maybe do another one (who knows)).

You are in for a treat. We do our very first deep dive into the life of one of the key actors in IF YOU ARE HAPPY & YOU KNOW IT the consummate enigma: Lilith Squibb. We tell you all about her life after the show, interview a special guest who knew her during her infamous 'party years' and finish off her befuddling three-episode story arch that sees her character in seriously hot water for the first time. As a bonus we also have rare archival audio of a late naughties interview Lilith did post-IF YOU ARE HAPPY & YOU KNOW IT discussing her unusual art career and we reveal our improbable stories of how we met Martin for the first time.See you on the other side.  We now have a Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/happyandweknowitPlease find these artists on YouTube: CO.AG and KL Productions as well as songs Covert Affair, Bass Walker, Dances and Dames, Walking Along by Kevin MacLeod: https://goo.gl/Yibru. Thank you so much to our talented friends Sydney Radcliffe and Bill Urquhart for voicing Lilith Squibb and Paul Lanyard respectively.  

We are back in Volgaville to peel back the skin of Episode 5. Strange things happen when a traveling casino rolls into town: Lee finally puts his croupier skills to use, Darcy risks it all on the slot machines and Simon goes all-in when he can't afford to lose. We'll be exploring duplicitous alter-egos, following government money wherever it takes us and trying to get to grips with the show's most malevolent character, the frightening and fascinating MC. Join us as we discuss the potential religious subtext of your favourite characters, Abraham's disconcerting home footage, and whether music really can tell a story. This is the darkest episode yet...
