  • Chuckles-a-plenty and amusing anecdotes galore!

    Entertaining chuckles-a-plenty and amusing anecdotes galore, all delivered with aplomb by Mark, David and their guests that take the dedicated music fanatic and muso on tantalizing trips down myriad memory lanes whilst tackling the musical present with just the right amount of reverence..or not! An interesting listen and great fun and not to be taken too seriously!

  • So glad to see this podcast had been revived... was the first one I ever listened to back in the 90s when the mag was still in print. True professionals of the music industry with a wealth of knowledge.

  • Very fine verbal journalism

    Mark and David very engagingly and hugely knowledgeably talk about their passion for music primarily and tangents that come off of that love. Very nice on the ear indeed. Spread the Word.

  • Surrogate fathers

    I consider David Hepworth and Mark Ellen my surrogate dads. Full of stories and interesting angles on popular culture backed by an honest egoless approach and completely unapologetic about who they are. Top top listen every week.
