Mitch Benn's music podcast showcasing new talent in the comic songwriting world is going from strength to strength, and as fine a place as any to hear some great new funny songs. Episode 6 is available at his website.

Mitch Benn had the idea in February: "Literally a few days ago I thought it might be fun to start a podcast showcasing the work of newish or jobbing comic songwriters," he explained on his blog, "I put the word out on Twitter that I was looking for submissions and within about 48 hours I had enough for two or three shows." And it has proved popular: the podcast has been getting 2,500 downloads a day and has been featured in iTunes's comedy top 10.
