It's Christmaaaaaaaaaaas! Another year over, and IEE's Christmas special arrives in traditional self-indulgent garb. If you can make it through the intro music you'll hear three classic guests wake up after one hell of a corporate Christmas party and argue about who should tidy up. But who has strong opinions about cheating on your spouse with felt puppets? Who told a story which would absolutely have got them fired if it hadn't been edited out? And who still finds Sam's Santa i...

For one day a year the shining star of IEE still twinkles and that day is two days before Christmas, normally. Depends how faffy the edit is. This year to mark the occasion we've gathered up our festive favourites and poured them into the IEE studio once more, forcing EMMA CROSSLAND, HELEN SWALLOW and BECKY HEAVISIDE to compete for the role of Panto's most Principal Boy. What a great bunch. WARNING: Continues to contain The Swears INFORM EDUCATE ENTERTAIN is a bloody brilliant podcast. Se...

IEE is coming back, I promise. But first: a new podcast from the Crossland & Wilkinson House of Nonsense. Subscribe now.

IEE has always been at the cutting edge of cool music and cool people. That's why this month we've invited the three coolest comedians who were available on a Monday night to come apply for the role of Cool Young Pop Music DJ! This month's cast are: EMMA CROSSLAND, SAUL HENRY and MAXINE WADE! Find them all on the socials and that. Or in Maxine's case, on BBC New Comedian of the Year 2023 on BBC iPlayer!

IEE is back for series 4! We begin with a Christmas special to wrap up a very IEE-light year. Emma Crossland, Helen Swallow and Becky Heaviside compete to give this year's regal speech over dinner and ruin everyone's day. WARNING: Continues to contain The Swears HELEN SWALLOW is a primary school teacher who dabbles in the medium of stand up comedy from time to time. She once ran a comedy night in the before times and will destroy everything you thought you knew about nursery rhymes. ...

November 19th is International Men's Day! And if this podcast had come out on time it would have been perfectly timed to mark this occasion with IEE's first and last ever ALL-MALE lineup. IEE is in need of a man. A manly man! A manly man's man! Sadly, all we could find were Silky, Chris Booker and Saul Henry instead. But who got too giddy and needed editing out? Who adopted the role of a character we were all uncomfortable to share a room with? And who has no respect whatsoever for the idea...

IEE is completely science-ignorant, and only one of the three finest minds of our generation will be able to fix that. Emma Crossland, Alex Beighton and John Morris between them have more degrees, test tubes and weird powders in jars than you can shake a stick at. But whose father is heavily involved in the sea? Who manages to swing a very dubious definition of sandwich? And who was accidentally given a really rough deal in their play title, leading to this episode having a gentle, but real,...

Oh no! Jingletron has broken down! Is there a comedian out there who's capable of taking on the toughest job interview on the internet to provide IT helpdesk support? Surely one of Annabelle Devey, Becky Heaviside or Adam Tumber has what it takes! But whose only reference to their assigned homework is a spoof in the Simpsons? Who does a surprisingly good 1930s gangster reference? And who wrote a lot of questions for round three that just made everyone sad? Sam, it was Sam. WARNING: Contains...

It's time to turn our attention to the long-form drama, and three of the best writers in the biz are queueing up for jobs in IEE's writers room in the form of Emma Crossland, Laura Ollerton and Gabby Hutchinson Crouch! But who isn't a soap opera person at all? Who has seen a lot more Stephen Sondheim musicals than Sam? And who will make for the fanciest grandma? WARNING: Contains The Swears GABBY HUTCHINSON CROUCH is a regular writer on Radio 4′s THE NEWS QUIZ and THE NOW SHOW. Her first n...

IEE's youth programming has long been neglected, which is why Becky Heaviside, Kerry Robinson and Jack Vincent have been invited to interview for the role of children's TV presenter. With an average of 2/3rds of a child between them, surely one of these three is suited to fostering the next generation's keen young minds? But who is absolutely correct about the worst Playbus stop? Who is determined to rudeify their child-friendly play title? And what will Jingletron's interruption be this mon...
