Gary & Guy - both lovely - guests fascinating. Chat - engaging & in-depth. If you’re a music nerd you’ll love this :)
Love, love,love your podcast! Your guests are incredible, I have enjoyed their stories and memories immensely. It’s almost like being there.
Any chance of getting Jarvis Cocker on sometime? Much love!!
The episode concerning Robert Plant was kind of a letdown, if you were interested in anything related to Led Zeppelin. He avoided saying anything interesting and mainly kept to his new career.
