#40 Part 2 – It’s Not About The Numbers: Freedom Of Speech, A Dirty One-Shot & Media Representation With Hedley Knights

This week, is part 2 of Mike’s chat with the powerful Hedley Knights, who as well as being the producer/sound engineer, he voices Jault for the podcast audio drama We Fix Space Junk and is a co-founder of Battlebird Productions!

Part 2 hosts a much more varied discussion than part 1, as although the chat starts with Hedley speaking about audio dramas, the topic soon moves onto movies, followed by a whole range of things including the damage of toxic masculinity, the representation of different races & sexualities in the media, black lives matter, capitalism, understanding negative behaviour, freedom of speech, stereotypes, Star Trek and so much more before circling back and discussing Marilyn’s Diary (a WFSJ mini-series)!

In case you missed it, in part 1 they discussed how WFSJ all began, the inspirations for it, bonus content and who the “Automnivoice” is, they discuss a whole mess of other things, so even if you’re not a fan of We Fix Space Junk, it’s still an incredibly listen!

Mike was on Comedy Geek’s most recent episode (Episode 11), regarding each guest’s favourite sketches, so be sure to head on over to their show and give them some love!
