We used to pray for times like these. No seriously, WE DID!

The Pebble Brain Trust wastes no time getting down to new Lovejoy business on this 24th episode* of the Lovejoy Nation Podcast!

Initial reactions to the brand new EP, Second to One and thoughts on favorite songs are shared with plans to dig deeper on the next episode.

Angie, Dave, and Lesley discuss the VIP packages for upcoming tour dates and what will and won't be included.

Website rebranding and a merch drop lit up the fandom and Dave lights up desribing his magical, memorable night at Lovejoy's first ever live-streamed gig in Brighton!

*Lesley said 25th at the top of the episode -- Oops!

In this episode, Lesley, Dave, and Angie break down the wild ride from teasing setlist snippets to the Alphabet (Wasted Summer’s) studio and live evolution.

They share Wilbur's behind-the-scenes details about the "Alphabet" confusion—why it was called that, how much of it was intentional, and what it reveals about the band’s playful personality all pointing to more surprises ahead, and the clever branding behind the "Second to One" EP.

You’ll also get insights into the European tour announcements, the upcoming vinyl re-release and as usual, speculation from The Pebble Brain Trust on what else might be coming later this year for Lovejoy and Lovenjoyers alike.

Perfect Blue's music video is is full of 90's psychedlic nostalgia and the Gen X Pebble Brain Trust is here for it!

Lovejoy has refreshed their online look with a new monochromatic and spooky vibe - surely this means the EP and new merch have got to be on the way soon too, right??

Wilbur hosted his second YouTube stream of 2026 and was so kind as to tell us what the meanings of the 4 new songs are before they are even released! If only he told us when we will get to finally hear them!

Angie, Dave, and Lesley also share and express gratitude for a kind listener's message about how much they enjoy the pod.
