In this episode, Karl and Aidan welcome Bradley Bowers into the Pod-Lodge. Bradley is the founder of BCB Production, a company specialising in audio/visual and technical support for live events. If you’re building something creative and want it to look and sound brilliant, Bradley’s the guy you call.

We dig into how musicians and creatives can better prepare for the stage - from technical setup to mindset - and Bradley answers questions from our listeners, offering plenty of hands-on insights along the way.

Also in this episode: the fallout from Episode 33 continues, with a brewing turf war between Ben Dlugokecki and Ben Townsend. It gets tense…

Which song should everyone hear at least once in their life?

Karl and Aidan take on this near-impossible question, joined by some familiar voices as past guests return to share their top picks from around the globe. With a longlist in hand, K&A attempt the unenviable task of ranking them all… but only one song can come out on top.

Tune in to find out which track takes the crown — and a huge thanks to our podcast alumni for all their brilliant suggestions!

We’re back! It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since our last episode. Surprisingly, this isn’t 100% due to laziness—Karl and Aidan have been pretty busy. Karl’s band, Blender, has just recorded a live EP, and the story behind its creation involves none other than Butch Vig, the legendary producer known for his work with Nirvana, Foo Fighters, and Green Day. We’ve got an exclusive preview of the recording.

Aidan has been touring across the UK with Chic to Chic and shares what it’s like to be a touring musician, spending countless hours on the road.

We also play some songs from bands we’ve discovered since the last episode, along with some old favourites that have made a comeback.
