Nice jokes.
But really. Everybody simply mocking this? It's a real endeavor and it's bold of him to use his life and time for a reasonable cause.
He's a kind, intelligent man. Somehow I don't think I'll be able to catch this

One of the many things I really admire about Brian is his willingness to dig in to causes he's passionate about regardless of how people may perceive him as a result. He's willing to take risks with things others might not understand, both creatively and politically.

I'll throw one like Quinn above * Badgers and farmers and hair, oh my! it's funny that you mention that. there could be one very retro LP project that Brian started and subsequently shelved, that i suspect he doesn't want us to find out about...

Sir Bri has just been on radio Newcastle talking about the upcoming show tonight. One thing he did say that buying a house in Rothbury (remember that) was just a rumour!
The interview too place around 14.20 lasted around 10 mins and it could be on the BBC IPlayer. Just talking about bovine TB.

He's apparently been doing 18 local radio interviews but there was no schedule to which and when so I couldn't keep up... nor did I plan to tbh but just wanted to see if he mentioned anything else...

Not quiet sure why you dont post links if you have them , and people asking you for it . We have to dig up individually? You are happy to watch the stuff that is unearthed or shared on youtube from our own archives right? I can equally post my archive is your friend - but wait the vhs tape is on my shelf . Haha.

Comparing what's publicly available on the BBC Sounds app to a personal archive you choose to share is ridiculous. It's not as though the interviews are difficult to find. Having the links to the shows on the various regional stations is useful, but there's no need for that kind of attitude, thank you.

Just finished watching, what an amazing documentary. Well done to Brian for fighting for something he believes in and rather than just protesting, actually coming up with potential solutions to the problem for people he may not usually see eye to eye with. Something I think that is lacking in modern society, we far too easily just shut people for their views down rather than listening and work together to achieve a common goal. Fair play Brian, I'm proud of you! (I'm not always a Brian fan boy, honest!)

Looking forward to finding it online somewhere. I too am so happy to see Brian putting his time and money where his heart lies.

I’ll be honest, besides the Badger song, I knew very little about TB, badgers, cows etc… I found it very informative, obviously somewhat biased, but very insightful. And shit, I don’t think I’d ever wanna get into an Argument with Brian!!
