Gaz and Daz take a sharp left turn into Liam Lynch’s gloriously stupid — and surprisingly brilliant — “United States of Whatever.” Equal parts boredom, sarcasm, punk attitude and “whatever,” it became an anthem for not giving a damn.

Gaz and Daz head underground this week,taking on The Jam at their most primal-Down in the Tube Station at Midnight…a track that still hits like a clenched fist some 50years on.

Dark,...

Daz and Gaz drift into Finding You by The Go-Betweens-a song that feels like a quiet conversation caught between memory and distance.
