Right then.
This podcast is a special wherein the Wizards investigate swearing in songs. There is a lot of bad languge in this one, including what Simon Bates would call “sexual swear words”! So if you’re a sensible grown-up you can download this filth right here. But don’t say we didn’t fucking warn you.
Where’s Bill Grundy Now?
Make sure you read our blog posts about who is the master lyrical swearer, the King of the Cuss…
- Kicker of Elves argues the case for Robert Pollard / Guided by Voices
- Rebel Rikkit argues the case for Ben Folds
(The other Wizard, Chorizo Garbanzo, puts the case for Shane MacGowan in the podcast above)
Also check out Rebel’s blog post Profanity & Pop (A Personal Memoir)
What a fucking rotter.
Big favourite of the Wizards MJ Hibbett also nominated his favourite swearing song which we weren’t able to squeeze into the podcast. So have a listen here instead. All hail the King of Fuh!

[…] Kicker’s chief complaint about the Manics seems to be that the lyrics don’t fit with the music and you can hear me making a pretty ham-fisted attempt to explain why that doesn’t matter on podcast 12. […]
