"FUCKING CROSSAINT!"

Episode 64 is a big guest discussing one of THE great albums - It's Murkage Dave!

Dave is set to release his third (and easily his best) album to date on March 6th - Brut Thoughts.The record seems to capture the mood of the nation and touches on social inequality, racism, religion, friendship and loss. But through the hardships, there’s moments of real joy.

On this episode we discuss his upcoming release while also looking back at Nu Rave Fashion faux pas's, Manchester club nights and Jamie T's almighty - Panic Prevention.

Best enjoyed with a can of Stella in Salvador.

In her first interview since calling it quits with Piri and Tommy, Piri and I discuss the split, the future and advice for young people looking for careers in the music industry.

Big thanks to the good people of You Fest for having us on stage for this special episode.

Can you truly dissect an entire months worth of culture into one 40 minute podcast?

We'll give it a go.

For this special episode I'm joined by return guest and dear friend Robert Ball, live on stage at You Fest.

Going forward I intend to break the format once a month and discuss the month in music with a friend.

So for the first ever monthly round up we discuss The Cribs, Kurupt FM, Harry Styles, jumping out of planes and Matty Healy committing serious crimes against indie.

Enjoy!

For episode 61 I'm joined by a man that has become the face of British festival culture and a social media sensation, it's Russ Festival Friend!

For this episode we look back to Plan B's seminal 2010 album while also talking about Russ' passion for country music, The 1975 and how why he's no longer aloud to have any more meet ups at Reading Festival.

It's a real fun one and best enjoyed in the company of your mates over a warm can of beer.

It's the big 6-0 and for episode 60 I'm joined by a man that is truly an expert on his chosen album, because he's literally written a book on it!

Ben Cardew is a music journalist, radio host, podcaster and DJ who joined me from Barcleona to deep dive Stereolab's - Transient Random Noise Bursts with Announcements from 1993.

In 2021, Ben relesed his first book - Daft Punk's Discovery - A Future Unfurled and in March will release his second - Space Age Bachelor Pad Music - The Story of Stereolab in 20 Songs.

It's a really fun episode where we discuss the crushing dispointment of being a Morrissey fan, reading French books to look cool and robots wearing wellies.

Viva Norwich!

For episode 59 I'm joined by actor, comedian and social media sensation - Ed Jones!

You'll be familiar with Ed's social media antics or maybe you'll know him from his comedic work with sketch group Crybabies. But if you've been following his work for long enough you'll know that Ed started his career in the arts as a John Mayer inspired singer songwriter.

We get into all of it as we discuss Mayer's seminal 2006 album - Continuum while also asking the big questions, such as - "How much sex was Mick Hucknall REALLY having?"

Best enjoyed with "a gentlemens' Guinness"

It’s the milestone every millennial has been fearing, but January 2026 marks 20 years since Arctic Monkeys released their debut album and (not be too hyperbolic, but…) EVERYTHING changed.

In true James Murphy style, I can say “I was there…”

So for this special solo episode of the podcast I run through my early Arctics experiences and the impact they had on me

2025 was the best year of my life and it started in glorious fashion with Chris Arnold as a the first ever guest on the show.

So what better way to kick off 2026, then by going full circle and welcoming back Mr Beatles Dub Club himself, it's Chris Arnold!!!!

Chris's first appearance is still the most listened to episode to date and somehow, for some reason we did the unthinkable and managed to literally reach the top of Spotify's Music Podcast Chart.

Mad!

In this episode Chris and I get on the cans to discuss subcultures in suburbia, second hand smoke at Brixton Academy and kidnapping rock royalty.

We also talk a little about NOFX's Punk in Drublic.

Best enjoyed while graffitiing a school desk.

Enjoy!
