Episode Twenty Six - I Like Food, Food Tastes Good
26/02/2026 | 1 h 49 min
It's the food episode! Lots of songs with, at times, dubious links to food. Also memory loss, poor timekeeping skills and shocking amounts of waffle.
Episode Twenty Five - Motion Picture Soundtrack
16/02/2026 | 1 h 56 min
From that uninspiring title you can probably guess what this episode is about. We manage to go off topic almost immediately, but then waffle on about our favourite soundtracks. Jake says it's one of his favourite episodes so far, I'll take his word for it.
Episode Twenty Four - Attack Of The Killer Bs
05/02/2026 | 1 h 54 min
We present a trawl through some great B sides, starting with an explanation of what a B side is for you youngsters. Lots of unnecessary singing, what's goth and what's not goth, the inaccurate history of dub, some skanking, Britain's Scariest Gigs, and lots more shenanigans.
Episode Twenty Three - Happy Happy Joy Joy
26/01/2026 | 1 h 41 min
To compliment our romp through a selection of sad songs last time, in this episode we're happy, happy, happy chatting about the songs that make us feel happy! So have a listen, and feel happy and gay!!
Episode Twenty Two - Down In The Dumps
15/01/2026 | 1 h 28 min
It's our saddest songs. No tears, but plenty of bumbling around, forgetting what we were talking about, disagreements about whether disco songs can be sad. You know, the usual.
We are Dave and Jake, two 60 year old music fans, and we take on a different theme per episode and pick five relevant songs each. We cover music from the 60's to now, and more or less any genre you can think of. From Punk to Pop, Reggae to Northern Soul, Drum N Bass to Ambient, if it's out there, we'll listen to it. Our best review ever said: "I love this podcast. My new favourite. Never heard Throbbing Gristle and Taylor Swift discussed in any depth in the same decade - let alone in the same conversation."
