We've finessed the episode a bit to make it less hissy. Bri and Jim talk about the singles. It goes as well as you would expect.

In this episode we are joined by musician, friend of the pod, and all-round nice chap Will McBride, as we discuss Jim’s mash-up playlist for Club Ninja and Imaginos. We argue that the two albums have more in common than you might otherwise think, keep bickering to a minimum, and whilst we have other Pod Plans for Imaginos - as befits its status - we hope you enjoy your visit to Club Imaginos. Wome...

In this bonus episode Brian chats all things Blue Öyster Cult with musician and author Jacob-Holm Lupo, founder of the Norwegian progressive rock band White Willow, who wrote the Sonicbond book ‘Blue Öyster Cult: every album, every song’. He shares his favourite (today at least) BÖC tracks, as well as a couple of White Willow tunes he's particularly proud of. The playlist is here: https://spoti.fi...

In this episode we take an idea from one of Jim's friends and curate a playlist based around those essential themes of motorcycles, death, and drugs insofar as they appear in Blue Oyster Cult songs. Edited to make Brian's microphone sound ever so slightly better on the couple of occasions it gave up in the heat, and to prevent us being sued by the Catholic Church, Conservatives, Bee Keepers, and W...

In this week's News of the Bungo: join Brian and his special guest, the musician and author Dave Dawson, as they talk about writing to musicians; what, if anything, they say when they reply; just who Derek and Dave Philpott are and how much of a threat they pose to the world order; how the humble, local shepherd's pie industry has been corrupted by Big Cottage Pie and what many are terming their '...
