The first question that most people ask when I reveal I have recorded nearly 500 episodes of this podcast is "surely you must have run out of things to talk about by now?" Well this week's TCD (...sorry Lucy) is a perfect example of how we have got t... more

Germany8 months ago - To quote a Marillion tome ‘Less is more’
I used to be a purple but I got increasingly fed up with the mindless and ill prepared ramblings. This podcast is at its best when H is called upon to answer a real and proper serious question or address a theme in an album. H’s reflective, informative moods are superb, but guys if you have nothing to talk about maybe don’t do a podcast that week. The number of episodes of inane warbling led me to cancel my subscription some time back which is a shame, as I love H.
I do wish Ant would simmer d... more
