If you ever need to d/l something that's only available on iPlayer, this utility is what you need, it's absolutely fantastic. https://github.com/get-iplayer/get_iplayer
@h_thoreson that's good, it's where the art comes in. good luck with it!
@h_thoreson iirc there's a passage in an old Nick Hornby novel where he posits that pop songs are puzzles that you want to listen to intensively until your brain 'solves' them -- at which point they can just go into the rotation -- which seems to track well with what you describe, but from the listener's perspective.
"That noise is what we called an 'alarm clock.' Back in the old days, it would make that noise every morning and force you to wake up, whether you were ready to or not."
"Eww! But, grandad, didn't that mean you were super tired?"
"Oh yes. That's why we used to immediately drink a big hot cup of drugs."
@h_thoreson So did I! I thought I'd somehow deleted it, but no, it was just the galaxy brains at Redmond having their fun I guess.
Bio. Bi-i-i-o. I want a bio and I want one now.
