Music Is None Of Our Business

Our favourite songs referencing places are covered this episode, as well as Winston Churchill, puberty, Jake's membership of the Cambodian police force and other ridiculous shenanigans.

In which we discuss our favourite instrumental tracks, as well as can instrumentals have words, death, fiery couture and the threat of quicksand amongst other topics.

It's the food episode! Lots of songs with, at times, dubious links to food. Also memory loss, poor timekeeping skills and shocking amounts of waffle.

From that uninspiring title you can probably guess what this episode is about. We manage to go off topic almost immediately, but then waffle on about our favourite soundtracks. Jake says it's one of his favourite episodes so far, I'll take his word for it.

We present a trawl through some great B sides, starting with an explanation of what a B side is for you youngsters. Lots of unnecessary singing, what's goth and what's not goth, the inaccurate history of dub, some skanking, Britain's Scariest Gigs, and lots more shenanigans.

To compliment our romp through a selection of sad songs last time, in this episode we're happy, happy, happy chatting about the songs that make us feel happy! So have a listen, and feel happy and gay!!

It's our saddest songs. No tears, but plenty of bumbling around, forgetting what we were talking about, disagreements about whether disco songs can be sad. You know, the usual.

We revisit 1985, well someone had to. Shenanigans galore, some goth, some feedback, some panpipes. Huh? Panpipes? Bloody panpipes? Are we mad? Quite possibly.

The hosts dive into nostalgic 70's pop hits from their childhoods, reminiscing about memorable radio moments and Top of the Pops. They explore the backstory of Terry Jacks’ 'Seasons in the Sun' and the cinematic escapism in Bowie's 'Life on Mars.' The conversation takes fun detours to discuss David Essex's unique sound, Sparks' theatrical flair, and Thin Lizzy’s emotional depth. They reflect on the evolution of music discovery, the charm of vinyl singles, and the eclectic vibe of the 70s music scene. A delightful trip down memory lane!

We go through our Top 10s of 2025, with detours into overpriced records and merch, a rambling explanation of Hauntology, rating Jake's jokes out of 10 and the usual old rubbish.
