In the Lap of the Pods is a podcast which casts an honest and critical ear over the work of the band Queen.
The team comprises three Glaswegians Paul Moody, David Moody and Joe McGlynn who are passionate about Queen and feel that this wonderful band's music should be discussed more. We give praise to the the four geniuses that are John, Roger, Brian and Freddie but we also stick the boot in when it is required; they don't get any free passes! We hope that you get something out of listening to these podcasts, we certainly have fun making them. You don't have to agree with us either, we sometimes don't agree with each other!

Customer Reviews
Funny, insightful, profane
A treat for all Queen fans to spend time in the potty-mouthed microverse of these three Glaswegians. Their knowledge and ears as musicians bring lots of new angles to one’s appreciation of even the most familiar songs. Well researched, moving and they even do the hard yards of digging into the band’s dodgiest solo work.
A Queen podcast of The Magic Kind
A great podcast for Queen fans. Paul, David and Joe delve into each Queen studio album with enjoyable and insightful chat about each track. Their love of Queen comes across, but they’re not afraid to slag off the odd arrangement, ludicrous lyric or most of The Miracle album. One tip: don’t accidentally listen to them at double speed (incomprehensible). Entertaining, i don’t always agree with them, but as a lifelong Queen fan, thet still help me look at the albums afresh.
