Episode 7: Uncomfortably Waiting for it to End (December 20th, 2017)

'Our Chestnuts Are Roasting On An Open Fire'

This episode: CHRISTMAS SPECIAL!

As Jeremy realises with rising horror that if he was in Wham! he’d be Andrew Ridgley, and Vince makes the case for George Michael being a calculating high-functioning sociopath with vengeance in his heart, both men get into the Christmas Spirit by cruelly denigrating widely held nutty belief systems, ruthlessly critiquing inarguably dreadful movies, and deciphering the cryptic meanings behind ELP, FGTH and EMF.

The artists/bands rated and/or discussed are Slade, Greg Lake, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Wham!, Cliff Richard, and Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

Episode 6: Languishing in Obscurity (November 22nd 2017)

'Non scientes quod ambitiosam (Never knowingly pretentious)'

This episode:
As we discover just how many times Critically Acclaimed UK Playwright™ Vince can easily be irked, Jeremy is turned into a dynamic pose-able action figure with eagle eyes and grip hands (just in time for the Christmas toy market); both men clash swords over the age-old debate of art vs commercialism, but both are in firm accord that romantic advances towards complete strangers should not involve needlessly over-complicated plumbing/messaging arrangements, and that Cockney Rhyming Slang is incomprehensible gibberish.

The artists/bands rated and/or discussed are The Shadows, R.E.M, Radiohead, Mike + The Mechanics, and Tony Orlando and Dawn.

Episode 5: Ghosts are Bullshit! (October 20th 2017)

'Listen to them, the children of the night'.

This episode: HALLOWEEN SPECIAL!

In this spooktactular edition of what’s been called “the scariest podcast ever recorded” by bull**** ‘medium’ Derek Acorah (not really; just like him, we’re making it all up), Jeremy adopts a new non de plume for his Rock and Roll Name and accidentally insults the state of Texas; Vince solves a centuries old murder case by identifying pretentious middle-class totty actor Martin Shaw as Jack the Ripper, and confesses he’s never been to Wigan (Vince, that is: not sure about Martin Shaw – perhaps he can let us know in the comments section); and both friends fondly reminisce about their school days at a mediocre Comprehensive when they bossed the second-rate teaching staff into letting them write and film a terrible video adaptation of Dracula, which nonetheless was considerably better than the one made by Francis Ford Coppola fifteen years later.

The artists/bands rated and/or discussed are Warren Zevon, R Dean Taylor, Talking Heads, Michael Jackson, and Classics IV.
