History of Oil DVD
The much anticipated History of Oil DVD is here! Robert Newman gets to grips with the wars and politics of the last hundred years - but rather than adhering to the history we were fed at school, this show places oil centre stage as the cause of all commotion. This innovative history programme is based around Robert Newman's stand-up act and supported by resourceful archive sequences and stills with satirical impersonations of historical figures from Mayan priests to Archduke Ferdinand.
Also included on the dvd is Robert's full From Caliban to Taliban stand-up show.
The DVD is £15.99 including UK postage and packing (£17.99 including airmail shipping to anywhere else in the world - please contact us for a PayPal invoice). Please note this a Region 2 dvd.

Mugs
Top quality mug featuring 2 doctored World War 2 propaganda posters and Robert's website address. Featuring all the functionality one would expect from a mug including a handle and the capacity to carry a hot beverage, with the added advantage of being a useful way to start up a conversation about how making the switch from oil will take a World War 2 collective effort on behalf of the citizenry.
The mugs are made and printed in England and will be shipped in cardboard box and recycled packaging. They can be washed in a dishwasher (this doesn't apply to the rest of Robert's dvds and books). Each mug has one of each propaganda poster on it.

The mug is £5.00 including UK postage and packing (£7.50 including airmail shipping to anywhere else in the world).

Apocalypso Now Double CD
“He is the funniest comedian I have ever seen. This is what watching Lenny Bruce must have been like.... a passionate, chaotically brilliant comedian who can voice our fears and raise the ante....” - Sunday Times
"Part stand-up, part monologue and part musical, Newman's show is all funny and perfect for these post-September 11 times. Like a subtler, wittier and more intelligent Mark Thomas he makes us laugh simply be revealing the truth behind the lies."
"…Newman now tackles...corporate news media and the links between big-business, war and opportunistic foreign policy. Happily, his wit remains as sharp as ever ....To his credit the laughs come thick and fast.
'Then there are the songs ... spot on and hilarious, while a ramshackle version of the Sex Pistols 'Pretty Vacant' is genuinely brilliant.' - The Irish News Tuesday 3 May 2005
“To paraphrase Voltaire, if Robert Newman didn't exist, no-one would believe it possible to invent him. Newman's is a kind of Revolutionary Renaissance stand-up and it is absolutely wonderful. His comedy probably has more constituent parts than any other comic's, and the whole is still greater than the sum of those parts. Firstly he is very, very funny. He can be witty, satirical and surreal in turn, and every so often will pull out a brilliant impression, just to remind us that he has more strings to his comedic bow than are attached to a World Bank loan.” - FIVE STARS The Scotsman Monday August 15 2005
Released November 2005, this new double cd of Robert's Apocalypso Now set was recorded at the Tricycle Theatre, London, during his sell out run of dates earlier in the year.
Robert’s show leads us through Wordsworth, Coleridge and the War On Terror in Somerset in 1797, and takes us via Salvador Dali and the Euro theory of Gulf War 2 to Your Hostage Survival Guide and the current vogue for saturation bombing, as Robert Newman explores the economic reasons for war.
WARNING: This show contains ukulele.

The Fountain at the Centre of the World
An epic novel about loss and hope, identity and belief, the story takes us, via container-crate and conference-suite, assassination and passport-theft, from refugee detention centre and Rio Bravo to the Seattle WTO protests. And here on the streets of Seattle, amid tear gas and rubber bullets, the destinies of Chano, Evan and Daniel are changed forever.
"It reads like what you'd get if Tom Wolfe clambered inside the head of Noam Chomsky -- it elegantly and angrily scorches a lot of earth...the talismanic 'Catch-22' of the antiglobalization protest movement, the fictional complement to Naomi Klein's influential treatise ''No Logo'."
- The New York Times
SORRY, SOLD OUT
