  • Treasure trove

    I just discovered this series and holy crap. The drum geek in me of course was tickled with the Black Midi / Bruford episode but then I started queueing up episodes and it got out of hand. I can’t wait to listen and keep listening. Great stuff.

  • The problem with this interview

    Is Tim Heidecker. Clearly he hasn’t done his homework.

    And he thinks he is as important if not more than Adam Curtis!
