    #063 Mew News / The Wake of Your Life

    Welcome to The MewX Podcast! Mew dropped a bombshell on everyone last week. Jonas Bjerre is leaving the band. We've been recording a few episodes for the upcoming season 6 of the podcast, but were not planning on releasing anything just yet. However, this announcement changed our plans a bit, as we give you our reactions to the news. We also decided to add our recording for The Wake of Your Life to the episode, as we saw how it thematically could fit in. We'll be back releasing weekly episodes later this year, as our recordings of Season 6 progresses, so stay tuned! Credits: Host: Thomas Dyregaard. Co-hosts: Ann Lancaster, Oddvar Røste and Keir Martin.
