Episode The genius of Sly Dunbar & Catherine O’Hara plus Springsteen’s anthem and old New York
A bone-shaking ride on the weekly news cycle, stopping off here to pump up the tyres ….
… Springsteen’s Streets Of Minneapolis: it’s not what he said but the fact that he’s said it
… “they’re all just Sly & Robbie records but with someone different singing on them”
… the price of stadium tickets: if it’s too high, don’t go – but stop complaining!
… Catherine O’Hara’s wit and humanity in Waiting For Guffman and A Mighty Wind, and why Home Alone wouldn’t work without her
… Melania’s deal with Amazon: the most craven act in the history of entertainment?
… is Mick Jones the first cousin of a Tory Home Secretary?
… the secret art of “four-walling”
… are most fans conservative with a small ‘c’?
… the romance of knackered old ‘70s New York: “the cheap pleasures have gone”
… and the whitest rap of all time!
Plus birthday guest Roger Millington and the agony of a band’s “new direction”.
