    About this Episode

    Welcome to the very first episode of Jelly Trumpet, the podcast for creatives; tricks, tip and ideas to expand your imagination. Jelly Trumpet is a fun and not too serious podcast which goes way, way beyond the simplistic ‘How to be Creative’ blog post loved by many tired content writers.

    Dive in for silly, surreal and odd interludes, o’ and some great music from the house band ‘We Paint Houses.’

    Stuff We’ll Hear in this Episode:

    • The famous glacier in Watford
    • Why we need a fourth traffic light
    • What if the United States of America finally invaded the United Kingdom?
    • We meet Arthur-Maurice ‘Butcher to the Stars’ (giving the lowdown on Rita Ora)

    And I share stuff I’ve done as a creative writer in ‘Stuff I’ve Done’ interlude.

    You Are Your Own Medicine

    We’ll be tackling the core of this season’s help for creative types and that is ‘You are Your Own Medicine’. We’ll be encouraging you to take the ‘Challenge at Home’ and we have a guest spot in each episode that enquires of each person what makes them tick, where their ideas come from and their one magic tip that makes them the creative person they are.

    All this and utter daftness, where, I, yes Jim gets challenged live on air with a creative exercise (spoiler, I may cheat depending on the amount of coffee in my system), we look at a hot topic to do with creativity and we have a ‘List of the Week’ everyone loves lists eh?

    In short, in this episode:

    01:54 You Are Your Own Medicine
    04:53 Challenge at Home, Wildmind
    08:33 Creative Hero Time, Michael Bentine
    11:31 Guest Spot, with Mr b from ‘We Paint Houses’

    Guest Spot: Mr b, from ‘We Paint Houses’

    12:23 Logic Pro
    13:50 Writing Down the Bones, ‘The Compost Heap’
    18:49 Why getting the bass down is important
    20:45 ‘What do you do when stuck?’
    23:28 ‘What would you tell a 10 year old about how to be creative?

    Plus:

    24:53 Challenge Jim
    26:38 Hot Topic
    28:14 List of the Week, Top 10 Animated Movies
    29:22 Further Thinking Spot
    30:20 Music from ‘We Paint Houses’ play ‘Breathe’

    36:36 Ends

    Guest Spot – Mr b of ‘We Paint Houses’

    Well, this is a pilot and Mr b was around so I thought I’d interview him. Why? He’s highly creative and has a rather unique way of working on his music projects.

    We hope you love it and leave a review or follow us on social media.

    If you don't like it then please keep schtum eh?

    S0213 Trailer – What if? Part I

    What's this? Nigel the resident bongo-playing (giant) red Squrriel is missing. 

    Only Sherlock Holmes (currently living in a cupboard in the Jelly Trumpet studio) understands why. 

    More madness foreshadowing the epic final two episodes of Jelly Trumpet season 2.

    Huzzah!

    S0212 Combine Part II

    S0212 Combine Part II

    Just why do they have a consulting detective in the cupboard under Mr b’s mixing desk?

    The Quentin Tarantino episode continues with Jim trying a different group of code names, based on fruit.

    The Queen, bless her, has trained Nigel (the squirrel, the size of a St Bernard dog) to be a ‘sniffer squirrel’, which is going to be ‘tout’ handy.

     Stuff We’ll Hear in this Episode:

    • A complaining detective, well, he is kept in a cupboard
    • A long note on an oboe
    • Another ‘Word of the Episode’ from Tony, the voice-over guy
    • The rumble of a V8 engine

    S0212 Trailer – Combine Part II

    Why is it that Mr b keeps people in cupboards? 

    In this trailer, we have a taste of what is likely to go wrong in the full episode. The crew are still in the movie world of Quentin Tarantino and that spells danger for Jim, Mr b, Queen Eleanor and the Podcast Authority's re-trainer Miss Bit...

    S0211 Combine Part I

    The podcast is in trouble. Nope. Not from the usual things like Japanese Anime characters or Victorian villains, this is far worse.

    We join the podcast as Mr b is typing his list of favourite Quentin Tarantino movies.

    Jim is trying very hard to get Jelly Trumpet, the podcast back to…well, being a podcast about creativity.

    This is just as well as Jelly Trumpet faces being shut down!

    Why does Tony, the voice-over guy, keep referring to Sharon?

    Dive in for silly, surreal and odd interludes, o’ and some great music from the house band ‘We Paint Houses.’

    Stuff We’ll Hear in this Episode:

    • A knock on the podcast door
    • Why Jelly Trumpet should be a ‘proper podcast’
    • A gentle hum
    • Some reservoir dogs

    The podcast is in trouble. Nope. Not from the usual things like Japanese Anime characters or Victorian villains, this is far worse.

    It all starts with Mr b is typing his list of favourite Quentin Tarantino movies. Will JIm's script make sense and will anyone in the crew pay that script any attention

    In the full episode:

    • A knock on the podcast door
    • Why Jelly Trumpet should be a ‘proper podcast’
