In this special christmas episode, the last in this series until next year, Amanda Blainey talks to Mr Bingo. He is called Mr Bingo because when he was 19 he won £141 at the Gala Bingo. In 2011 he began the project ‘Hate Mail’ on Twitter, where strangers paid him to send a hand-drawn offensive postcard to a name and address of their choice. It sold out within days; since then he has opened it 12 times and it has sold out every time within minutes. Like much of his work, the project started as ‘a drunk idea’, but ended up being exhibited in galleries and gaining notoriety among the global press.In summer 2015, he ran a Kickstarter campaign to fund a high-end art book of his 'Hate Mail' illustrations. The campaign, was successfully funded within 9 hours, making it the most successful Kickstarter for a book in the UK ever.in 2015 after a 15 year career as an illustrator, Mr Bingo made a decision to stop working for clients and go it alone as an artist. For the last four years he has created in his own words a ‘nudey scratchy festive fun' christmas advent calendar in which each day in December is represented by a different person whose clothing is printed in removable gold ink , when you scratch off the ink you reveal them in all their naked glory.This episode was recorded in London in a coffee lounge, we talk about- Art- Not being too busy and doing nothing- Challenging the norm of what ‘working' is.- Mr Bingo’s gravestone art project- Freelancing- Having fun- How walking is good for you- Can work be a hobby?- What if we live forever?- And of course we cover those small subjects of death and life!This episode contains some swearing.Episode referenceshttps://shop.mr.bingo/https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mrbingo/hate-mail-the-definitive-collection

Episode 19: Mr Bingo

The Unfinished Business schedule’s been a little, shall we say, up in the air, for the past few episodes. while I’ve been busy writing something. I do aim to get  back to our routine and I’m sorry for the disruption. A few weeks ago I recorded a hilarious episode with artist, illustrator and rapper Mr. Bingo. We talk about artist—and former Spitting Image puppet maker—Wilfrid Wood, Banksy’s Dismaland and why IKEA in Croydon is like a real-life bemusement park. We discuss Mr. Bingo’s Hate Mail series, his boundaries and how Hate Mail in real life would just be people paying to be shouted at. We also talk about his highly successful Kickstarter for his new Hate Mail book and the hilarious incentives he devised. Content warning: As you might imagine when the two of us get together, it’s a very funny conversation. But we do swear. A lot. If you’re easily offended by four letter words, this may not be the episode for you. Some links from this episode  Mr Bingo on Twitter Mr Bingo’s kickstarter rap Wilfrid Wood Wilfrid Wood on Twitter Wilfrid Wood’s ‘Portraits Of Hackney Wick’ Gin Festival Dismaland Bemusement Park  I love my Jolie Originals iPhone and laptop sleeves You might remember that I’m not taking paid sponsor spots on the show anymore. I’m going to briefly talk about something that I use and really like instead. And this week, it’s Jolie Originals’ iPhone and laptop sleeves. Jolie Originals are a two-person team based in Amsterdam and they make Macbook sleeves, iPad sleeves, iPhone sleeves and even a nice little wallet thing for notes and credit cards. And other nice things. I like their products a lot and I think you should  buy something from them.

‘Buttered someone to death’ with Mr Bingo

Hosts Michael Ogden and Peter Dean take a breather between regular episodes to share their thoughts on talking with J Todd Coleman and Gordon Walton of Crowfall in the previous show. We also give a shout out to our Crowdfunding Pick of The Week (great name!) with a campaign that has the funniest video you are ever likely to see on Kickstarter, but will it be enough to get through Pete's famously high humor threshold? We wrap things up in this episode by talking a little about our forthcoming guests on KickStars – the dynamic duo of Rebecca Melsky and Eva St Clair, aka Princess Awesome. Check it out!
