And breathe. 

The new season of NO ENCORE continues apace as Dave Hanratty and Craig Fitzpatrick reunite and attempt to set the musical world to rights once more.

First order of business – a personal life update from Dave that also somehow finds space for some bizarre humour. Wouldn't be like him.

Beyond that we've got a notably spicy news section, an album that provokes quite the rant and a signature Top 5 to take us home.

ACT ONE (1:05): Dave speaks about the passing of his father John.

ACT TWO (14:06): Dave speaks about why tweeting is a bad idea.

ACT THREE (21:33): It's the news, baby. Meat Loaf RIP, Neil Young battles Joe Rogan, Damon Albarn suffers Swift wrath, and can those crazy Morrissey and Marr kids ever work it out?

ACT FOUR (42:53): Yard Act are the hot new hipster UK band of the moment. The Overload is their album. This is our review of both.

ACT FIVE (55:59): In honour (?) of Ireland's newfound relaxed approach to Covid-19 restrictions, we detail our Top 5 Songs About Freedom.
