  • Chancellor Griggs BUT NOT MILES

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Sorry everyone but Miles Chapman let us all down by bailing on us so there is no double-bubble episode this week. We will do it asap though.

    Instead you have got a particularly insidious episode of me coaxing Griggs onto my hand with some meagre crumbs of favouritism, which gives me the opportunity to grab him around his tiny muscular body and throw him in the cage of his own doubts. What a silly little bird! I shall keep him forever and ever!

    Also sorry there has been a bit of a gap since last episode, it's just a matter of lining up someone for a chat as I don't always have a solo in me unless I am in a really daft mood.

    Anyway, there is a plan to shake things up soon which I WILL talk about properly next episode.


    Enjoy

  • HRH Queen Tribute Special

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Well this is a bit of a mad one.

    At the time of sitting down to record this episode little did I know we were mere moments away from the most momentous news moment since Princess Diana and the Twin Towers. The passing of HRH Queen Elizabeth the 2nd. I hope you appreciate me leaving in an intro where I am innocently musing on the then current news that that Queen was at that point just apparently not well. What transpires after that moment happened in real time in a way that though odd and far from being the sort of thing I would usually talk about, is our own little SHC shaped slice of this historical moment. In short, it's audio gold. Award winning? Hey, I'm not 'about' awards, but let's just say I am confident this episode will live long in all our memories for a multitude of reasons.

    Be in no doubt before you press play that there are in this episode shades of bemused clumsiness before 'the event', followed by a kind of panicked attempt at decorum, but ultimately, you will no doubt be relieved to hear, it soon descends into foul bullying and point-scoring as human cockroach Alistair Griggs fails once again, to hide the truth of what he is. Just dreadful.

    Enjoy

  • Interrupting Special with Miles Chapman

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    A really fun, but mildly irritating episode here chock full of funny stories about such things as crap service and immature nicknames, all punctuated by Miles inability to not jump in in a way that that Matt Morgan would simply not put up with it from me. And yet here we are. Rest assured I remain impatient and harsh throughout the entire conversation.

    Am I sorry or ashamed of myself? Not at all. After all 'rug' is here for you all to enjoy and to wipe your feet on. Dirty rug! Not your year!

  • You're a Grandad!

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Hey you lot,

    I have done a solo special this week and really enjoyed it. Learn all about my journey through the crap level of organisation in the NHS mental health system, how flies make me lose my shit and marvel at my ability to trap myself in a pissy stairwell. All of this via a mere child destroying my confidence with one comment.

    BTW I apologise for the number of Plosive P' bangs in this ep, didn't realise I was PPPPP-ing too close to he mic. Plesson Plearned.

    Hope you enjoy

  • Maurizio (deddringa) Posteraro

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Hi sods-

    This week I had a lovely catch up with my pal Maurizio. He is a man who stopped having a normal job only to become a skilled pencil fiend who does ridic level portraits. He has since blossomed into a rather busy mural/street-art bloke in Bristol no less. OoooooOOOOOOoooooh.

    I'll level with you, the audio in this could be better. It's a bit hiss n hum and there are some mystery digital space noises to contend with, but hopefully not so bad as to detract from what is a very pleasant, varied chat that takes in bees legs, enjoying what you do and the imminent RIOTS what we reckon could be on the cards soon.

  • Jason Hazeley

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Yes I am FINALLY (more or less) back in the land of the living. Thank you so much to everyone who has hung around to wait for me to get better. The last few months have been horrendous but it's starting to lighten by the day/

    And It is seriously really helpful and cool to have this poddles to turn back on again to get my brain firing again and to have that connection with you all, and of course my guests.

    This episode gives you the chance to meet the wonderful Jason Hazelely, brilliant writer and even better pal. We wrote some joke books during lockdown and did a load of sketches on Spitting Image together and are really only just getting going as a writing team after the weirdness of the pando. Here we discuss muchos daft stuff, serious mental health stuff and the dodgy lyrics in early Beatles songs, (Jason is a HUGE Beatlenut - He even has a book laying out the recording equipment for every song like some sort of psycho).


    I've stuck a wee strum on the end lest we forget that I like to force my singing on whoever will listen.


    It's good to be back (Hey! I don't mean I'm singing a Gary Glitter song, guys! Come back!)


    I'm just saying it's literally good to be back, so if any of you wanna be in my gang....


    Ah forget this....just enjoy the episode ya BIG LUGS!

  • 'Man in the Box' Alistair Griggs

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Hello everyone

    This weeks episode sees Griggs begin to overshadow his master by producing some popular internet content. Is this the beginning of the end for Ma'am? It certainly has felt like it lately and I'm sorry to say it shows in bits of this chat as I have been ruminating on direction, career stuff and just how to survive a cruel and shallow world. I'm glad to say I have had some interesting ideas and leads since I recorded this and I will fill you in on that next week.

    We're all just muddling through really ain't we?

    Chat soon love you bye

  • Katerina Georgiou

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Hey everyone-

    This weeks episode is a lovely old chat with therapist, oasis nut and all round nice lady Katerina 'Katy' Georgiou.

    It felt like a nice idea to get her on after she very sweetly messaged me to check in. You may have heard her on Matt's show before discussing therapy in all its forms and giving us some insights into the realms of mental health and getting 'help'. Some really good intel in here guys. Hope you enjoy and get some value out of it, I sure did.

    If you would like to look Katy up you can find her at

    www.kgcounsellor.com

    @kgcounsellor on Twitter

    or via her own music and mental health podcast 'Sound Affects' which has had ammongst others Alan McGee and Bez on.


    You can find it here:


    @SoundAffectsPod on Twitter


    Or search for sound_affects_podcast on Instagram


    Or just search for it in your podcast app

    Also here are links to Mind and Samaratitans in case anyone would like a look at what they do

  • Alistair Griggs - Nuclear Obliteration

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    I'm back! And I'm 'back'

    So that's TWO whole ways in which 'I'm back'. Thought I'd revert to a good old Griggs episode to get us moving again after last week and as usual he does not disappoint in making me shake my head at how his fetid little mind works. We discuss nuclear obliteration, Richard Burton, professional insecurities, embarrassing school memories and much more. The song at the end is called Beat it Back Down. It's getting recorded at a proper studio at the end of this week so will be interesting to see how that goes. Well, for me anyway.

    Enjoy mon petit's filouseseses

  • Actual Real Sadness Special

    Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart

    -------------------

    Hello everyone

    I hope this isn't too weird. I have had a pretty damn sad week as a result of a friend passing away and I really, really did not have it in me to be wacky and funny the last few days, but I didn't want to not drop a show either so I have kind of talked through some reflective stuff here on sadness and the shit in life and how I, at least aspire to handle it. Please feel free to skip this episode if you feel you are not in the mood to hear someone processing and ruminating on dealing with some dark issues like grief and loss and just the what the fuck of this whole shitty mess called life- But I do know some of you will understand why I thought talking like this might be of use to someone out there. So that's why I am putting it out, because I strongly believe that TALKING openly is really super fucking important.

    Anyway- I promise to be extra-awful to Griggs later this week and get back on the giggle bus but for now please humbly accept this slightly short, achingly honest and very rambly little episode.


    Love

    Uncle Ma'am
