“THIS Album…” with William Hann

• Episode 6 - Matthew Crosby - 100 Gecs, 10,000 Gecs

  Matthew Crosby is a comedian, writer, podcaster and Radio X DJ. His Sunday morning Radio X show with Ed Gamble has been part of my weekend routine for over 5 years now and I couldn't have been more excited to have him on the show...... until I found out which album we were covering....We deep dive the bonkers Hyper Pop duo 100 Gecs and their second album, 10,00 Gecs.We also talk about kids tv, radical acceptence and ask the big question, are Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds "a laugh?"No shade to previous guests, but bloody hell, this is the best one yet. Matt was fantastic company and you are going to love this episode, even if 100 Gecs are not your thing.

• Episode 5 - Jess Greenfield - Alanis Morisette, Jagged Little Pill

  Is it Ironic? Do You think? And does it even matter? In today's episode I'm joined by Jess from Wonder 45 and Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. I was lucky enough to spend time over Zoom with Jess where we get to deep dive one of the biggest albums of the 90's. However, the technology failed us towards the end, but it actually added a bit of fun chaos to the show. We also touch on Glastonbury, straddling the two worlds of Camden and boarding school. We also discuss irony. Or the lack of it. Enjoy!

• Episode 4 - Harry from 22 Grand Pod - The Paddingtons, First Comes First

  Hold your Ipod mini in the air and light a cigarette indoors, because for episode 4 we are discussing the best thing to come out of East Riding of Yorkshire since Emmerdale and bad weather. It's The Paddingtons! I'm joined by a man that is more then equipped to deep dive the scuzzy icons. Harry is the host of the 22 Grand Pod where he'll discuss all things indie with an array of landfill avoiding legends of the era. Not only do we discuss The Paddingtons powerhouse debut album, First Comes First, we also talk about the dangers of wearing yellow skinny jeans on a high street, all nighters from Arctic Monkeys and when house parties go a bit too far. Give Harry and I a follow on the socials and if you could also give a 5 star review to us both it REALLY helps bump things up the charts. Enjoy as irresponsibly as you see fit!
