He's been promised for two years, but now is the time for the return of our old friend Grae Westgate, and he wants us to talk to Chappell Roan's 'The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess'. So strap in as three men who have hit their forties start to feel old and befuddled by what the kids are into these days, but we might have a bop or two. Was it worth the wait? Probably not.

Well, hello again. Sure, it's been over a year, but we're back with some lukewarm opinions and toll the Waits bell because we're finally talking about a Tom Waits album. Held as one of Waits' crowning achievements and one of the GREAT alternative albums. We're delving into a cacophonous world of disparate genres, scattershot lyrics and bad ideas for James Bond villains.

'We're not politicians... we men of no consequence'... and so forth. Join us as we talk about one of the ULTIMATE'S in British crime cinema, 1980's The Long Good Friday. A career-defining Bob Hoskins performance, a script littered with one-liners, a beautiful Pierce Brosnan, Charlie from Casualty, the shark from Jaws 3 and, oh yes, THAT theme tune.
