In the trailer, Jim points out a fundamental flaw in their travels and is not sure of the waiting room that Princess Susan has left them in.

The podcast is in BIG trouble. First, Nigel, the giant squirrel goes missing. A mystery is about to unfold and will Jim, Mr b and the Queen be able to solve the squirrel disappearance?

Just why is Queen Eleanor practicing her swordplay? Will this come in handy?

Thank heavens for Queen Eleanor and a smart doorbell.

The crew are forced into a race against time to find Nigel and save him from…well, you’ll have to listen…

Is Jim actually writing Jelly Trumpet or has the podcast started writing itself?

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!

We extend our 12 questions in 12 minutes with Sacha Mandel, a creator.

Sacha is also a Product Development Manager at Grantify. 

Sacha originally trained as an actor. His purpose in life is to inspire people to be creative. He knows first-hand how difficult it is to lead a life of creativity. He also has a deep understanding of how to help creatives fundraise for their projects.

All in all a very worthwhile chap to know!

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

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...

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?

Stuff We’ll Hear in this Episode:

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

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 this bonus episode, I chat with one of my favourite people, Lou Wallace.  

I’ve had the pleasure of acting with Lou on stage and being directed by her in the best pieces of physical theatre I’ve been involved with, ‘The Red Shoes.’ 

Our bonus conversation takes in one of the theatre's greats, Emma Rice.

Stay creative good people…

Putting on a podcast is far, far, far from simple. This is especially so when your techie sends the podcast back in time, 19th century England to be exact, to a dark and mysterious house.  

The boys do hook up with Sherlock Holmes and a drunk Dr Watson to solve the disappearance of a member of the Japanese royal family. Who is the evil genius behind the abduction? Will Jim and Mr b’s knees survive the stairs? Does Queen Eleanor manage to keep the boys alive? 

Interview Countdown – 12 Questions in 12 Minutes

In this episode, our talented guest is Lou Wallace, a drama teacher and so much more. I’ve worked with Lou in the theatre. Lou is a talented performer and director. Such a joy to be her ‘stage husband’ and be a small cog in her production of ‘The Red Shoes’, perhaps my favourite theatre experience, a talented company, behind the stage and on stage. 

Strap in, align your ears and melt into the off-beat world of Jelly Trumpet, the comedy podcast about creativity.

Listen to Jim take stock of the urgent situation the crew is found in an old dark house in the 1800s.

A wooden sign creaks in the wind. A shrill scream. Quite an opening for Episode 10.

The story takes a dark turn as we discover who is loose in the abandoned Victorian villa.

O’ no! There are several plot cliches in the podcast. Still, they are fun, who doesn’t like a cliché or two? O’! You don’t? OK. Give it a go, you are going to be surprised at how well this episode works.

The podcast is coming undone. Even with the help of the great Sherlock Holmes and the incapable (really) Dr Watson, Jim, Mr b and the Queen face a great evil.

Who is the evil genius behind the kidnapping of Princess Yamaha? Will the phrase 'Bank Holiday Monday' save them from a messy demise?

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

A new member of the crew appears Twang. A magnificent guitarist, now living behind the settee in the podcast studio.

Mr b, of course, has another experiment on the go, this time trying to attract sponsorship of the podcast by using ‘a mix of pertinent aromas’.

Queen Eleanor is exasperated. She talks about annexing the best parts of St Albans, not sure which bits she means.

Golly, I think there are ‘dark things’ on the Jelly Trumpet horizon. O’ and why do the boys keep talking about Yamaha? Could this be a lame attempt at gaining some freebies?

Stuff We’ll Hear in this Episode:

• A distant scream
• Just how silent is cMac (the ultimate gizmo) in silent mode?
• The identity of the man in the wheelbarrow
• A new character, you’ll recognise him though

A smudge of ideas around our slightly disgruntled crew. 

Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine is slightly disgruntled about the inability of Mr b to steer the Jelly Trumpet podcast back to 12th-century France (that's before it was France). 

Mr b is disgruntled because of all the mysteries in the world he has not uncovered.

We think Jim is disgruntled due to the accusation that he has been drink-writing. 

Enjoy the taste of Jelly Trumpet...flavour!

In episode 8, our bonus episode features Peter Freedman of Think Inc. Peter chats about creativity in business, his experiences and how to maintain a creative mind. 

During the full episode (well, some of them) we ask our guests a bonus question if they manage to answer 12 questions in 12 minutes. This bonus track is the result of those 12 questions. 

Please enjoy and pick up some ideas for your own creative world.

Still, on Treasure Island our gallant crew are trying to outrun ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ and her super sharp axe. What on earth is she doing on Treasure Island? “Gulp!” 

Meanwhile, our resident voice-over guy, Tony, appears to have a breakdown. Just who is ‘Sharon’ and more importantly what is ‘Sharon?’

On the way, Nigel takes a tumble and Jim tries his hand at a new language. Could this cause even further danger? Which other cliches will the crew uncover on their journey to the center of the island?

The podcast starter motor loses a spring on landing. How will they manage to return to ‘sunny St Albans?’

Wait! This may be Treasure Island but for some weird reason (must be the writer) the characters inhabiting the island, don’t quite…well, make sense.

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:

• Just how do podcasts really work?
• Is the podcast really writing itself?
• Just who is that wearing a red riding hood and what will she do with that shiny axe?
• What do they do with Winnie The Pooh, Eeyore and Tigger?

Our gallant crew are trying to outrun ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ and her super sharp axe. What on earth is she doing on Treasure Island? “Gulp!” 

Just who is that wearing a red riding hood and what will she do with that shiny axe?

In which we find Mr b lobbying for his new button, the orange one to be used in the episode. Jim is cagey.

Nigel (resident giant squirrel) has discovered a new instrument that might be less annoying than his bongos, let’s hope eh?

Sadly, inevitably Jim and Mr b,  land the Jelly Trumpet podcast on a desert island. Could it be the fabled ‘Treasure Island?’ Yes. Yes, it is.

The podcast starter motor loses a spring on landing. How will they manage to return to ‘sunny St Albans?’

Wait! This may be Treasure Island but for some weird reason (must be the writer) the characters inhabiting the island, don’t quite…well, make sense.

Stuff We’ll Hear in this Episode:

• Why a pirate substitutes a parrot on his shoulder for a lobster
• What Borehamwood is…
• There might be a volcano about to explode, cliches happen everywhere you know
• Just who is that wearing a red riding hood and what will she do with that shiny axe?
