    What about an interview with your wife and Mother? It would be interesting to hear about their lives and careers as we heard from your Dad Alfie.

  • Jed & Dead-ly

    Fantastic podcast, overall, and the brothers’ show The Hold Down is really fun, also. Been a listener for years (ex-pat in the U.S. from Warriewood) and one of the better aspects is they’re not beholden to the WSL, so it’s “pure, tour nerdism, core lords,” live shows and some important, albeit usually devastating, world news stuff as well, five stars.
