This is an absolutely great show format, I've loved listening to the discussions and the music. Gutted there hasn't been anything new released for a few years. Please BBC bring it back!

Only just found this podcast and has to be one of the best I’ve ever listened to. The balance between new music and old conversation and anecdotes is amazing. I’m not in awe of many people but Colin Murray is one of those people. He has the ability to make everyone feel welcome to the conversation. This podcast has helped me through some difficult times and if I could buy it this man a pint it would be my honour. Please BBC make some more.
