Just like lopsided-haircut friend of the pod, Phil Oakey nearly once put it, we’re back, back, yeah, back.
Naturally, after our extended football-focussed hiatus, we have plenty to chew over. So much so in fact, that we will be releasing 2 podcasts over the next few weeks full of the usual vim, vigour and veritable verbosity.
After an appropriately jolly start to this first part, we discuss albums that we really should have been all over last year, but weren’t, and are inspired to introduce an unlikely furniture based quiz to proceedings. In the midst of all this we not only take full credit for one of the best releases of this year, but also have an interview with a real musician from a band who we really think are on to something good.
You can download all the hoopla right here and stream the whole of the podcast below.
Look out for Part Two coming your way in a couple of weeks!

Now I want to know what David Thomas from Pere Ubu ever did to you….!
Chorizo, over to you…
if one of the other wizards ever selects one of their songs for the podcast I will explain in full and give the fat git both barrels!
I assume Chorizo is referring to Mr Thomas there and not his svelte colleagues.
