• Episode 53 - Rick Blake from The Fullertons - Delta Sleep, Twin Galaxies

  We've had to dig deep into the archives for this one....12 months ago, after being asked around 15 times, my very talented and dear friend Rick agreed to be a guinea pig for this podcast. We doubted if it would ever see the light of day, but the time is right and the time is now. So this weeks episode is basically a demo for what the podcast would become, despite the rudimentary interview techniques from me, there are some really funny moments shared between two guys that have been friends for nearly 20 years.Enjoy responsibly!

• Episode 51 - Amelia Bayler - Ministry of Sound The Annual 15

  Episode 51 of the podcast is one I've wanted to happen for a while... it’s Amelia Bayler! Amelia is a creative force of nature in the world of music, comedy and musical comedy, and she effortlessly straddles the worlds of Nu Rave, French Touch and Chart friendly house bangers in her musical taste. It's the first time covering a compilation album on the podcast and the two of us have loads of fun deep diving this Ministry of Sounds, The Annual 15 from 2010 while Amelia also flys the flag for compilation albums as a whole.But if Ministry of Sound is not your thing we also discuss boobs, ordering drinks while gurning and Weight Watchers yoghurts.Best enjoyed while on ecstasy with the girlies.

• Episode 50 - Sam McCann from Sprints - Bon Iver , 22, A Million

  Episode 50 feels like a monumental occasion and it just so happens I've got a monumental guest to mark the big 5.0.  From Irish Post- Punk noise makers Sprints, it's Sam Mcann!We recorded this episode just before show time at a landmark gig for the band at London's Troxy. The iconic venue was awash that evening in a wave of screaming guitars and cathartic chorus'. It was a hell of an evening...Anyone that's into hearing about Simpsons t-shirts, Ed Sheeran tattoos, face steaming and language barriers at music festivals will get a LOT out of this very fun episode.But most importantly, we deep dive Sam's relationship with the groundbreaking 2016 release from Bon Iver, 22, a Million.If Sprints two albums to date aren't enough to keep you satisfied, Sam does give a little tease about what Sprints fans can expect in 2026.Enjoy!
