Who Robs A Banksy?

Podcast by Podimo UK

There aren’t many people who can say that they’ve had a Banksy statue in their back garden, but Andy Link is one of them. In 2004, he kidnapped one of Banksy’s pieces of art in broad daylight from the middle of central London, and held it to ransom. The fact that someone would kidnap a Banksy statue is pretty absurd already, but the story of why it happened, how the statue vanished again after it was kidnapped, and how it was mysteriously put up for auction over 10 years later is even wilder. It all comes down to 1 man, and a 2 decade long vendetta. The story will take us on a journey through UK’s most subversive sub-cultures: from art heists and art terrorists, to 80s football hooliganism, the 90s illegal rave scene, even fetish parties. While all the while, we try to track down one of the most elusive anonymous artists in the world. All to discover…who robs a Banksy??

5: Cash, Money, Art

The Drinker mysteriously vanishes from Andy’s back garden…and theories are flying about who might be behind it. But things get really interesting when it appears 10 years later on sale at Sotheby’s. Is Banksy really the anti establishment figure we all want to think he is? And the team has one final shot at getting in touch with Banksy. From Podimo & Message Heard, this is Who Robs A Banksy?

After the failure of Finger In A Matchbox, Andy spends some time behind bars - with plenty of stories that continue to illuminate his character.

3: Freedom to Party

While Banksy might turn out to not be as anti-establishment as we once thought, it’s time to hear about Andy’s contrarian movements - and how his involvement with sub-cultures massively backfired on him. And in perhaps the most anti-establishment move possible, Andy starts to put his plan to get his own back on Banksy into action… From Podimo & Message Heard, this is Who Robs A Banksy?

Kidnapping a statue to get revenge on someone? Seems pretty extreme. What could possibly have caused a feud that would elicit such a reaction? Jake learns the origin story, while also travelling back to Andy’s childhood - rife with political upheaval and football hooliganism - to get a better understanding of how he’s wired. And the team gets one step closer to Banksy himself… From Podimo & Message Heard, this is Who Robs A Banksy?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
