<description>&lt;p&gt;A day late with this one, which pretty much exposes me as breaking my own rules. The idea was that I'd upload at the end of the two weeks whatever I had. But truth is, I didn't have anything.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;I recorded a bit of audio at the festival where I was, and so there's some music in the background I don't have permission to use. I think there's far greater crimes occurring and so I've decided to leave it in. You will also hear the start of a set by musician Angie McMahon. I have not got permission to use this either. Maybe as compensation, you could check out her music. Slow Mover is an incredible song.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks to my Meredith Mates who keep making me laugh and still laugh at my jokes. Here's to 26 more festivals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can hear more of my stuff &lt;a href="https://www.samloysound.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm taking a bit of a break from this podcast over the summer. I'll make some things when I can. Have a safe break, enjoy your time with friends and family, and be excellent to each other.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'&gt; Hosted on Acast.

Episode 41 - One About a Music Festival

<description>&lt;p&gt;Sometimes, things don't go to plan. I've had a two week stretch that started well, but then nothing really panned out. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;I had some work on that then got postponed, which meant the idea I had for Human/Ordinary couldn't be realised. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Them's the breaks I guess.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;What you get instead is a plug for a show that I worked on earlier this year. I feel it deserves more listeners because it's a cracking story and we worked hard on it. You'll hear a trailer for it, followed by a few select scenes from across the series. They're all without context, so the idea is to pique your interest enough that you'll check it out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Fingers crossed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Listen to Treason &lt;a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2377898" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, or wherever you get your podcasts.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;And you can find more of my work &lt;a href="https://www.samloysound.com/stories/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&lt;p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'&gt; Hosted on Acast.

Episode 40 - One That's Really a Shameless Plug

<description>&lt;p&gt;A friend of mine died recently. This is the story of our friendship, and my hate for him.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;I've decided to dispense with the intro narration; they weren't really adding anything and you hear from me enough as it is.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;This episode is a part of a little series of stories called &lt;em&gt;One Every Two&lt;/em&gt;. I'm going to make a new one every two weeks, and upload whatever I have when the time is up. I really abandoned this story. I wish, given the subject matter, I was able to take more care with it. But then, if I gave myself more time, I might just have tinkered and tinkered until it was all tinkered out.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;This story contains audio from videos created twenty years ago by many amazing people, including Ben Flavel, Emma Fisher, Paul Watson, Richard Halstead, Chris Ryan, Julia Sutherland, Kathryn Piggott and Ryan Coonan. I haven't asked their permission to use this audio, but will instead ask for their forgiveness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;A sound recording of Japan from the Soundly Pro library is used.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everything else is by me.

Episode 37 - One About a Weekend in the City

Human/Ordinary is on a bit of a break. Hopefully we'll return in 2026 with some more short docos. Sam will spend two weeks floundering and then release whatever he has on Friday night of the second week. They'll mostly be personal journals that touch on our culture, our relationships, and the extraordinary feat of being alive.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
