Agreed - this and AIOTM are the purest comedy

Honestly, these are some of the highlights of my week, so this one sounds particularly exciting

Thanks for heads up - just bought a copy - don’t know any Prince really so
could do with a guide. Need your manics sequel next! Thanks for all the writing over the years

Can I just say, I thought your review of new Morrissey album was very fair

We went to see it tonight, frankly because you’d recommended it while no one else (bar Robbie Collins) rated it and … you are completely right - it is superb. Thank you

Just reading Impossible Monsters and came across quote from early geologist James Hutton who, in his research, rode across the country for decades and lamented, “Lord pity the arse that’s flagged to a head that will hunt stones.” If only he had stopped occasionally to clear them…

Excellent! Bought this over Christmas to help me get through the holiday!

Different thread but … am reading the Big Nowhere and did a Wikipedia check on Johnny Stompanato and found this, which you probably know anyway!

Superb podcast, thank you for all your work. And I’d agree, it’s become an expensive listen! Thanks again

Again, I am baffled! Been in the Hancock society since the 80s but clearly have shallow knowledge / which one is this?!

Didn’t see this exact one but those CUD gigs were some of the happiest times of my life

Another one I don’t know! Not too familiar with the tv episodes - which one is this?

Lots of interesting breadcrumbs to follow, thanks - and nice to see Ed McBain getting some love!

100% You can judge a society by how it treats its most vulnerable

Beautifully structured joke 👏👏👏

Wings: The Story of a Band on the Run. You get any?

Nicely put! Took him a decade to realise that his band mate had the answer all that time

Cheers for a year of podcasts and recommendations. At the moment I would say Paul always knew who he was, while John was discovering who he could be

I’d agree 100% Just been rewatching Hyena and Muscle, Tony lined up. Is Odyssey coming to Norwich at all?

This is the correct answer

Wow! Can’t believe I’ve missed that one - off to listen! Thank you!

I don’t know this one! Which episode is it from?!

Thanks for the list - I struggled with the burton/taylor book too, and also loved the hall marked man. And sorry to see you getting mad nonsense thrown at you elsewhere on BlueSky. Take it easy! Best wishes

The Wally Who theme tune is quite something!

Well, just finished John and Paul (which was excellent) and happy to be recommended something else!
