Back in the old studio, for possibly the last time? We’re not sure. Will it matter to you lot? Probably not. All you want is 2 hours of quality radio which you’ve got (eventually). You’ll be pleased/sad* to know there’s no theme this week. Just us, picking songs, talking about songs and other stuff.

Evenin’ all. Or good mornin’. Depending on when you read this. Or if you read it at all. This week’s show had some beats, some guitars, some music from Jamaica and a fair bit of new music. We’ve got our fingers on the pulse. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Sunday’s show was a doozy. Hour one was the standard stuff but hour two is where it really gets going. We did a tribute (of sorts) to Steve Barrow, who sadly passed recently by playing an hour of stuff we heard on his Blood & Fire record label.
No live show from us this weekend as we’re out on Saturday night. Tune in the following week for tales of Steve’s birthday bash.

It’s night time in The Big City. Rain isn’t falling as it’s an unseasonal heatwave. A late night radio show host writes a hackneyed blurb for an upload… Sunday’s show is here at long last.. where we celebrated Bob Dylan’s 85th birthday by playing songs that he wrote, performed by other people.
One day soon we’ll do a show without any type of theme. Tune in on Sunday to see if it happens next time.

The weeks, they roll ‘round quickly. It seems only yesterday that we were playing animal records yet here we are again… doing an upload and trying to work out how to make it sound enticing enough to listen to. Thankfully, a lot of you are in too deep now so you don’t want to stop listening. And we appreciate that.
It’s a standard show this week, old cuts and hot chat. What you’ve come to know and love.
Big Big Holiday Weekend show next week. Tune in live to see what we do!

The best thing about this show is for the first time in 3 weeks we haven’t had to think about animal songs. It’s a standard show with the usual stuff. Gig reviews, stuff we’ve heard on other shows, general bad mixes and handbrake segues.
There may or may not be a show on Sunday… we’re out on Friday night and we’re getting older so it takes longer to recover!

Well, this is possibly our most ambitious theme show ever! Three themes in one. Dancing, animals and dancing animals. We've just counted up and annoyingly, it's 44 songs. 45 would have been nice as it's a show on all 45s. Perhaps if we'd have started properly we might have snuck another one in. You live and learn.

So, it’s an animals on wax special. Songs with animals in the title or band name. I know how to party. It’s rough and ready, not fixed anything and if you listened live, you got a bonus 3 songs. I was going to edit them in but I thought “you should have been there”. Shout out to Phillie B for giving me the idea of a theme within a theme.

Listeners that have been with us a while, will either be rejoicing or lamenting this upload. It’s the return of the 100% strange music show! It’s been a minute since we’ve done one of these, which is a travesty (in some people’s eyes).
So here it is, 120ish minutes of weird music for you to enjoy/endure.
No show from us tomorrow (19th April) due to legitimate reasons. We’ll hopefully be back next week with another great show.

Alright party people! A Monday upload that we’ve been putting off all day as it’s been sunny. It was a solo show from Steve, but that’s not the important bit. The important bit is there’s AN AMAZING GUEST MIX THAT YOU NEED IN YOUR EARS. Freakbeat Brónagh’s Land of Make Believe Mix is one for the ages. Don’t panic, we’re going to upload it clean in the week so you don’t have to endure Steve’s dulcet tones and dull chat.
Back next week for a standard show. It’s #425 so we could do a weird one. We might, the jury’s out.

Just a quick hello to say, here’s the show. It’s got both of us in the studio which isn’t going to happen again for at least a week. If things go according to plan, Steve will be flying solo on Sunday. It is the Easter Bank Holiday weekend though so if you haven’t got work, do tune in and say hi!
This show may or may not work on Mick’s Cloud. There’s a song by DJ Shadow that’s technically 6 songs, so it might get flagged for copyright. If that’s the case, sorry!

Evenin’ all. We didn’t do a show last night but we couldn’t leave you without something to tide you over until we’re next on the airwaves.
We’ve pinched a show that we love and that we think you’ll love as well. It’s by friend of the show Louise and it’s a great monthly show on LWSTD.fm. Its goes out at 3pm, in the slot that Pick of The Pops used to have. They’re not really the same, just wanted to mention it.
If you want to get up to speed with all the other great shows, give LT a follow on Mick’s Cloud so you don’t miss anything.

Parts of this show were made in a hurry. If we didn’t tell you that, we’re not sure you’d know as the bits we made are pretty good. The bit of the show that’s really good is the killer guest mix from Rockin’ Rachel at Haunted Jukebox. We’ve linked her profile on Mick’s Cloud below. You should check out her show. It’s mint.
No live show next weekend due to reasons. We’ll try and get something out for the live crew to enjoy.

If it’s a choice between no show and a ropey show, most listeners would probably like a ropey show. That’s what this one is. Not the bits on the mic, those are as stellar as always. The music is also good. It’s the ordering of it, we’re a bit rusty so it doesn’t quite flow as well as it has in the past. Perhaps we’re over-thinking it (very likely).
Anyway, here’s the show. Early morning upload for the fiends that want to listen on Monday morning.

With this show it’s best to just focus on the music. Please ignore us butchering the Portuguese language when trying to pronounce artists and song titles. We did our best.
As it’s Carnival Season (and the big day tomorrow), we promised some people a Brasil special. If you’re not lucky enough to be celebrating Carnival/Mardi Gras, use this as the soundtrack to your Pancake Day.
Back this Sunday with a normal show, unless someone famous dies.

A Tuesday evening upload?!? Madness. It’s almost like you’ll never know when an upload is going to happen. So here’s Sunday’s show. It’s Steve on his own which means there’s a good chance there’ll be a Mary Lattimore cut, a 78 and some Osees.
We’re back next week with a Brasil special in preparation for Carnival. Get your requests and suggestions in, pronto.

How’s everybody’s Wednesday going? We’d like to think that with this show dropping in your feed, the day has got considerably better. Truth be told, this could have been uploaded on Sunday night but we were being lazy. Please forgive us.
The show. It’s a small record special so we packed some 45s in the bags and headed to the studio. For a show with very little planning, it’s actually turned out pretty damn good!
There might be a show on Sunday. It all depends on if Steve fancies going into the studio on his own. Tune in on Sunday to find out!

What a week! We’ve been dealing with a whirlwind of bullshit, jet lag and other annoyances. This is a flimsy excuse as to why this show is only now being uploaded.
Anyway, it’s a great show. A different show. It features our first ever LIVE guest presenter, DJ Kalinka. He can be heard on Sheffield Live as one of the crew that brings you Two Foot Left.
We’re back on Sunday (hopefully) with a small records show.

Evening all. Yesterday’s show for your listening consideration. The first of 2026. Still the same though. New music, old music, new old music, old new music. Hot chat, recommending shows on other stations and all sorts of other nuggets of goodness. We will say, this has been uploaded in a bit of a hurry, so if there’s any mistakes, please let us know.
We will say, there are excellent show notes this week. Well worth wasting some time on.
