IDIOT TALK  + Hammer & Tongue Slam at The Thunderbolt

A event held at The Thunderbolt on Wednesday 2nd October. The event starts at 19:00.


October 2nd is the day before National Poetry Day (National Poetry Eve?!)

To celebrate, question and confuse everyone, T.S. IDIOT brings his radio show to a live audience for the very first time. For 6 months, IDIOT TALK has aired on 1020 Radio, discussing the local scene and wider issues raised by spoken word poets from across the UK.

Join your hosts T.S. IDIOT and Sam J. Grudgings, alongside live performances, audience games, various nonsense and a crack team of panellists discussing their thoughts LIVE, RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACES.
