  • Masterpiece

    What an absolutely brilliant podcast on one of Australia’s finest bands talking about one of their great albums. Richard’s interviewing skills are a masterclass and the glue that make this story flow so beautifully. The crazy thing is it’s not even their best album. I’m ready for Hourly Daily!!!

  • Fantastic insight

    I’ve been a You Am I fan since the 90s and thought I knew a fair bit about the band and Tim’s life. This podcast gave me a brilliant insight into the making of one of my all time favourite albums and the circumstances that made it possible. Richard, you are the King. Love your work and miss hearing your voice on the radio.

  • The King is Back

    Thanks Richard, it's terrific to have you back in our ears, we've all missed your exceptional auditory presence and dedication to the Australian Music Scene.

    I only just stumbled upon this excellent piece, maybe could've been better promoted?!

    I can only hope there are many more to come.

    🤞🤞🤞🎤🥁

  • How much is enough?

    Absolutely loved this Podcast and the lyrical insights, the flow and tempo of the dialogue, the way Tim strums throughout and you can hear the cogs turning. What a wonderful and important document of the background of the album. We just don’t hear enough analysis like this since the decline of the ‘album’ . Brilliant Richard, and always great to learn more about Tim.
