I’ve loved their music for years, my daughters first concert was Blaggards, it doesn’t hurt that Patrick is easy on the eyes. At a recent concert he mentioned they do a podcast, I had no idea! Now I’m playing catch up and loving every minute! Ta boys!!
Congrats. Really. The content is fantastic and extremely interesting.
Thanks for all the hard work, Smalley.

Just fabulous, a brilliant insight into the world of blaggards, the stories give you a behind the scenes look at this hard working band , the stories from the road and the friendship made and how they appreciate the help from fellow musicians and especially the fans.
Always packed with great inside information, history, references to other bands, pubs and podcasts. But the most fun for me is picking out Patrick's off the cuff analogies and comments. Always entertaining, just like their live shows. I guarantee you will never see the same Blaggards show twice. You may think you know the lyrics, but you don't. LEMMMMONNNN CAKE!!!
It wasn’t a hard sell! Patrick & Chad are awesome storytellers and really fun to listen to. Great job, guys! Keep ‘em coming!
