In days of yore (aka medieval Britain), merchants would travel from hamlet to hamlet negotiating with the various Lords, through their Stewards and Bailiffs, in order to provide chain mail, iron braces and cladding for drawbridges, and reinforcements for battlements. Often, the merchant would barter for food, tools, or other supplies. The most famous of these merchants was named Joen (later changed to the modern spelling of "Joan") of Winchester. Renowned for his craft and guile in negotiation as well as his legendary drinking prowess (he once challenged the Duke of Argyle to a mead drinking contest, from which the Duke suffered a reported hangover of 5 days). Joen was thought to have been born to a Norse warrior father and a French washerwoman mother. HIs complexion was said to be paler than the new moon and his eyes as black as coals. All across the land, as Joen proceeded along the winding lanes to castle after castle, the peasants and their Reeves would call out "Hail Joen, armour trading again?" It is from this unlikely source, that singer Sally Butterslip created her pseudonym.

If Randy were to title this podcast, he’d probably call it "Maybe you should lose your head" or possibly, "Why does my song not sound good?"

NOTE: Skip forward to 27:15 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.

The music at the end of the episode is the most brilliant "Bottom End Machine" by Randy Woods Band, from their second record - "Soul Hammer". Kev played a crucial role in the shooting of the music video, by pulling a far more talented man around in a child's wagon. And shooting some random video footage.... go check out the video here! https://youtu.be/efBpffvB84k
