b"In GBA 233 we get better acquainted with Ali. He talks about writing sports listicles, having to choose between football and drama, how sport and theatre are not that different, his Northern and Jewish heritage and identity and so much more. Shared interests lead to us discussing interviewing and podcasting, the issues and tensions around digital and print media and the various approaches to the craft of true storytelling.\\n\\nAli doesn't plug anything.\\n\\nI plug:\\n\\nDonating to GBA: http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cm%E2%80%A6_id=4RCU5NHZURXUL\\n\\nWe mention:\\n\\nThe Nerdist: http://nerdist.com/podcasts/nerdist-podcast-channel/\\nTwitter Account: https://twitter.com/alimason\\nMarc Maron: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Maron\\nWTF: http://www.wtfpod.com/podcast\\nPresident Obama WTF Episode: http://www.wtfpod.com/podcast/episodes/episode_613_-_president_barack_obama\\nRichard Herring: http://www.comedy.co.uk/podcasts/richard_herring_lst_podcast/\\nDesert Island Discs: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qnmr\\nPress Association: https://www.pressassociation.com/\\nListicle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listicle\\nSnappa: http://snappa.press.net/\\nI100: http://i100.independent.co.uk/\\nBuzzfeed: http://www.buzzfeed.com/\\nAdvertorial: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advertorial\\nMetro: http://metro.co.uk/\\nEvening Standard: http://www.standard.co.uk/\\nNME: http://www.nme.com/\\nBBC Website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/i\\nThe Guardian: http://www.theguardian.com/\\nCitizen Journalism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizen_journalism\\nMartin Ziegler /Sepp Blatter: http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/sepp-blatter-resignation-celebrate-yes-but-his-exit-must-lead-to-real-change-10293234.html\\nWikileaks: https://www.wikileaks.org/index.en.html\\nWhitehaven newspaper: http://www.whitehavennews.co.uk/\\nSpark London: http://stories.co.uk/\\nStand Up Tragedy: http://www.standuptragedy.co.uk\\nJoanna Yates: https://soundcloud.com/gettingbetteracquainted/gba-32-joanna-yates\\nChris Hardwick: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Hardwick\\nFor Folks Sake: http://www.forfolkssake.com/\\nAvi Buffalo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avi_Buffalo\\nAshes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ashes\\nSarah Kane: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Kane\\nSimon Stevens: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Stephens\\nElectra: http://www.oldvictheatre.com/whats-on/2014/electra/\\nJos Butler: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos_Buttler\\nSpark London: Bernard : https://www.mixcloud.com/sparklondon/bernard-ali-mason/\\nHarrowgate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harrowgate_Hill\\nStand Up Tragedy story: https://soundcloud.com/standuptragedy/tragic-history-act-3\\nIsle of Man internment camp: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutchinson_Internment_Camp\\nWho Do You think You Are? http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007t575\\n\\nHelp more people get better acquainted.
