Bonus Podcast! LCD Soundsystem / The Maccabees debrief
What a weekend!Over the last two days I've been lucky enough to watch my two favourite bands play shows that I'll remember for years to come.LCD Soundsystem turned Brixton into a euphoric sweaty mess .Then just two days later The Maccabees played their first (proper) show back after 8 years at Berlin's Huxleys. A generation of British Millenials boarded Easy Jet flights in search of Indie Bangers and 5.8% Pilsner. Mission accomplished on both counts.It would feel weird to non acknowledge this momentous weekend on the podcast, so here you are!I can't really believe it, the bloody Maccabees are back!

Glastonbury Special! Glastonbury 2022 Line Up Deep Dive With Gene James Smith
The boys are back in town.... After realising what a truly awful experience Glastonbury 2011 was, we figured we absolutely have to find some positivity. So we turned the mics back on, pulled a few more cold ones out of the fridge and decided we look back to a slightly more recent Glasto to deep dive.It just so happened to be my favourite ever Glastonbury…There was a Beatle, there was a Gallagher, there were Foals and there were friends.....😍🤝🏻❤️I’ve loved doing these Glastonbury deep dives and if you’ve enjoyed listening, then let me know! Enjoy irresponsibly and hopefully this should make you suitably excited for Glastonbury 2025!

This Album.... with William Hann.
The podcast where each episode a guest and I deep dive an album of their choice.
It could be an album from any artist, any genre, any year.
We're going to discuss the songs, the shows, the artwork. But what I really want is to know is the emotional attachment my guest has to the album.
Who knows, we might even have a bloody laugh while doing it!
