MAD WASP RADIO

Welcome to Mad Wasp Radio, an Internet Radio Station that aims to provide YOU with a unique music and entertainment experience – with the main focus on new music, forgotten gems and quirky comedy talent from Britain and beyond and FUN! Our musical focus is an alternative to the mainstream – but still covering a host of genres from punk to soul and from rock to house and pretty much everything in between – and with plenty of recognisable songs from past decades. As well as catering for your aural pleasure, we also want to make you smile and will be introducing a healthy smattering of comedy and laughter to the proceedings.

One of our key objectives is to give as much exposure as possible to new musical and comedy talent. Please send all music and sketches - mp3 tracks preferred - to studio@madwaspradio.com and we'll give it a listen and circulate to our DJs for AirPlay!

VINDICATION SWIM RELEASED IN UK CINEMAS FROM FRIDAY 8TH MARCH FOR INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY & MOTHER'S DAY




We are delighted that long time friend of Mad Wasp Radio Elliott Hasler, the Writer and Director of the film Vindication Swim an award-winning biopic about the extraordinary life of Mercedes Gleitze, a pioneer in the world of open-water swimming, who in 1927 became the first British woman to swim the English Channel. As a working-class, unmarried typist, Gleitze self-funded all of her swims and it took her eight attempts to conquer the English Channel.

However, following her success, a rival emerged, claiming the same feat, which forced Gleitze into a battle to retain her record and legacy.

After the English Channel, Gleitze went on to achieve many more incredible swims around the world, including the Straits of Gibraltar, the Dardanelles and the dangerous distance between Robben Island and Cape Town.

In celebration of International Women's Day,Vindication Swim serves as a poignant reminder of the indomitable spirit of a woman who dared to dream beyond the confines of her era. The film's release on the 8th of March hopes to bring the legacy of this remarkable woman back into the spotlight.

Elliott Hasler’s quote:

It was our aim to really submerge the audience into the waters of the English Channel and in that way hope to pay homage to the spirit of this incredible woman. So everything you see on screen is real, all shot without the use of tanks, green screens or body doubles. I want audiences to feel as if they are swimming right alongside Mercedes on her incredible journey and share in her love affair with the water.


Not long to wait now for the UK release of Vindication Swim, 100 cinemas + around the UK with more coming online this week. An incredible film not to be missed, please spread the word.Get to see this great movie if you can :D Cinema Lists

A great gift for Mother's Day plus select cinemas holding giveaways for the launch weekend. Tickets are selling fast, so grab yours now using the links below to avoid disappointment!

There are exclusive Q&A screenings at select cinemas which will feature a post-screening Q&A with writer/director Elliott Hasler alongside lead actors Kirsten Callaghan (debut) and John Locke (Darkest Hour, Poor Things, The Favourite). Many screenings expected to be sold out this week.
