We're back with Pocket Lint. Well, not really. It's the rest of the interview recorded back in January. Here Mark Hefferman breaks down a few more tracks on his recent album The Jet Age , particularly how Cary Grant fits into the themes of the record. We also delve into how COVID affected his ability to record music (and read), and a few more gems of wisdom imparted on us.

And yes. We've reverted to audio form, as editing in video takes its toll. Once Swy (or a future editor) figures out the Cutting Game, then you'll see things play out, literally.

The theme track is an instrumental version of Frontier Life, done by me.
