    #36 - [Patreon Teaser] Slates (Live) (2024)

    PATREON BONUS EP [Teaser]: New Slates? Old Slates? Old-new Slates? Let's get into it! A couple of male slags (Gavin and Steve) dissect the new archival release of live Slates tracks, chosen by the Slates-era Fall lineup. This compilation of new renditions causes these Fall-heads to slate themselves, as usual.

    #35 - Peel Sessions 8 & 9 (1985)

    #35 - Peel Sessions 8 & 9 (1985)

    We're back at BBC studios for a rambling listen-along where Gavin and Steve attempt to pitch and cast the John Peel bio film. Additionally, the lads discuss Chicagoan and record producer (no, engineer!) Steve Albini, which is strange because this episode was recorded almost exactly one week before his untimely passing (*Editor's note: We were also in the process of scheduling him to be a guest on the show). Anyways, enjoy this great set. Cheers mates!

Room to give

There's no point in the hate that I give. I just want room to live.

Looking forward to your podcast working through this remarkable catalog. Listened to Witch Trials and it was surprisingly good. Thanks. I know you’re not obsessives, but two complaints. Una, not Yvonne, and Salford, not Manchester. ME was a Salford boy born and raised. 👍

Mr.Sizemore ,

Very interesting

Gavin and Steve take us through an interesting journey on John Peel and the Peel sessions!
