E359 - Big Beautiful Co-op ft. Dan Hind (Patreon)

Put on your Cyber-Gloves (after supplying your NI number and passing a test where you have to correctly rank the top ten funniest moments in 70s british comedy according to a panel of Da's) because we're tying some Cat7 round the BBC and dragging it screaming into the Digital Age with the help of Dan Hind.

Dan's on to talk about the report he co-authored with Tom Mills and Tom Chivers - Our Mutual Friend: The BBC in the Digital Age, which posits wild ideas like "what if the public broadcaster was actually run by the public".
