- Play the damn song
Interesting podcast overall but could be greatly improved by actually playing more of the music. Even if talked over.

Thankyou both, for creating so much much joy
Apple Podcasts5sparklekaliUnited States2 months ago - When is now?
I love the show. The Soon Is Now episode had some great stuff to say about the Marr influences for the Rhythm and the Tremolo. I have to say though, you all missed the meaning of the title of “How Soon Is Now?”You claim that Morrissey never says the title but the final verse is basically just the title. “When you say, ‘it’s gonna happen now,’ when exactly do you mean?” Is just a longer way of saying the title. It could have been called “When is Now?” But that would sound like some stupid psyched... more
