The Hashtag Show

The Governor is back. 👑 For the first time in Hashtag Show history, we welcome back a returning guest as Scottish dance music legend Joe Deacon joins Scott for another completely unfiltered conversation. What begins with terrible flights, airport chaos and the decline of modern life soon takes a trip through Glasgow’s past — from growing up in the Calton, first jobs and family life, to the legend...

🏴 Scotland might be out of the World Cup... but did we actually lose? This week Scott looks back at Scotland's unforgettable time in America, why the Tartan Army completely won over Boston, Steve Clarke stepping down, Peter Murrell heading to prison, surviving Scotland's ridiculous heatwave... and why maybe politicians could learn a thing or two from football fans. Plus... ⚽ The greatest...

Scotland are heading to the World Cup and for once we're not interested in hearing the usual doom and gloom.

There's also a look at the Clackmannanshire village slowly sinking into the grou...

This week it's a solo episode and absolutely nobody is safe. Scott dives into Peter Murrell's guilty plea, the world's most disappointing embezzlement scandal, and the bizarre shopping list that has Scotland asking one very important question: if you're going to steal £400,000, why spend it on a camper van, coffee machines and salt shakers? Elsewhere, Susan Boyle has unveiled a bra...

The world’s in chaos, diesel prices are rising, Scotland’s heading towards another election, and somehow  The Hashtag Show  is still here to make sense of none of it. 🌍🔥 This week, Scott Gibson dives into politics, global madness, rising costs, tsunamis, mushrooms, wellies, and the general state of a country that feels like it’s running on fumes. As always, it’s raw, unfiltered, very Scottish, a...

DJing, techno, vinyl records, the future of music, and the death of club culture… this one goes deep.

Scott flies solo for a properly chaotic episode of The Hashtag Show. What starts with a daft musical warm-up quickly spirals into Chuck Norris tributes, mushroom people, Stephen Hawking conspiracy chat, diesel prices, global nonsense, British pubs, rotary phones, and the general feeling that the world has completely lost the plot. It’s one of those episodes where the conversation goes absolutely e...
