BBC Radio 6 Music - Radcliffe and Maconie, Mark Thomas

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie are joined by comedian Mark Thomas.

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie trotting round the 6Music gymkhana in hope of winning that Radmac musical rosette. Joined by today's guest, comedian Mark Thomas, who's here to talk about the Red Shed - a labour club in Wakefield, home to Mark's first public performances as well as the beginnings of his political awakening. He first became known as a guest comic on Radio 1 comedy show The Mary Whitehouse Experience in the late 80s and describes himself as a 'libertarian anarchist'. Well-known for his Radio 4 series Mark Thomas: The Manifestor, he's also recently completed his Trespass tour, inspired by the Kinder Scout trespass of 1932. 

Plus you could possibly gain major office prowess by guessing the link between the 3 tracks in Teatime Themetime or try your chances on The Chain, where you yes YOU might even get your voice on the actual 6 Music DABwaves!
