BudgetPedalChap forgets how to speak for the intro of this podcast and is saved by the ever-brilliant Mr Matt Quine. We discuss gigging, yes gigging, that thing we used to do before the bad times and what they can still do on the Isle of Man… we aren’t jealous, we are happy for him.

Welcome podcast listeners and today Mr Budget Chap is joined by none other than our Man from Man, Mr Matt Quine.
