Podcast Correspondent
I am Podcast Correspondent since Friday 23rd September 2005, This is my first correspondent update but I was "Trainee" Podcast Correspondent for Iain since his Podcast launched on iTunes. And suggested by listeners that I do "The Most Updates as a Correspondent". Lots of people expected me to be renewed as a Podcast Correspondent but anything can happen.
On 27 December 2005, The correspondent update happened on Iain's show & luckily I was promoted to Podcast Uber Correspondent.

Featured Article of the Day
Blackrocks Brewery is a craft brewery in Marquette, Michigan. Taking the name from a local landmark, former pharmaceutical salesmen David Manson and Andy Langlois opened Blackrocks in 2010. They originally brewed their products in the basement of a Victorian-style house (pictured), and the building's two other floors were used as a taproom. By 2013, persistent high demand for Blackrocks' beer led Manson and Langlois to expand their brewing capacity, including the purchase and conversion of a former Coca-Cola bottling plant. In the early 2020s, they expanded Blackrocks' taproom into an adjacent property, which doubled its available indoor area. Blackrocks produced 12,687 barrels of beer in 2023, up about 11 percent from the year prior, and they are the largest craft brewery in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Their most popular beer is 51K, an American IPA named for a local ski marathon. (Full article...)

ITV:
I loved Thames Television & LWT but for these last few years ITV is being rubbish, Just making programmings with "Celebrity" on it, The only thing I watch on ITV is Tonight with Trevor McDonald.I say "Bring back the old ITV!".
