    I have no idea what that title means or might be alluding to or why it might be ideal for this pod episode because I can't remember what we did this time or why we did it or anything innit, right? I can't remember why I'm sitting here now let alone something I said yesterday. And I'm NOT gonna sit here listenin' to it, that's your job, for your sins. Report back.

Plus an exclusive peek into the tiny mind of Little Johnnie Rotten, as he explains why he'd rather not be a successful billion dollar rock star, just a jobbing muso instead. FFS.

Brilliant - but…

Come on fellas - sort the mix out. Sometimes I listen to podcasts while walking the dog, so only have one earbud in so that I can listen out for traffic while on country lanes.

So I only get half the conversation - it’s even bad in the car. I’m leaning across into the frigging passenger side to listen to Mick. I know you’re both getting on a bit - maybe ask someone younger to help you get the sound mixed properly

Starbenders

Huge fan of the podcast anyway, and have been for some time. The Mick and Jon double act just gets more hilarious each week. But worth sending kudos for the 20 mins of discussing ‘Starbenders’ all on it’s own. Was laughing so hard I could barely hold the steering wheel.

The real Rosso ,

Volume

Hi, as you only post reviews with five star, I’ll give you five stars‘ just to post this review

Boys, please sort out the volume of the intro music. It is insanely loud and unhelpful.

Also, whilst I’m here, Jack Bruce dead rockstar episode is only six minutes long, where is the other 50

Otherwise it’s okay
