  • Love love this!

    Discovered this podcast when Josh was on Talk 90’s to me. What a fabulous walk down memory lane. The SAW one is so good. I’d love to hear a series on the Ministry of Sound / Dance / Ibiza.

    Heard Josh on talkSPORT and thought it would be a good listen while I was in hospital. I wasn’t disappointed, funny nostalgic and entertaining. Highly recommend, even for an old fart like me.
