Gig Pigs with Ivo Graham and Alex Kealy episodes

April 11, 2024 S3 EP3: Future Islands with Eleanor Tiernan
Seasons change, and we’ve grown tired trying to change for you (we haven’t). Alex and Ivo are joined by Eleanor Tiernan to discuss hot chocolate, fanboying the Waterboys, and Baltimore’s finest, Future Islands, who made some old pigs very happy at the Kingston Pryzm in January!

April 04, 2024 S3 EP2: BC Camplight with Frankie Thompson and Liv Ello
Connect me to the manager please, we’re on 302! From Bake Off to bag drop, a vast rotation of mirth with critically acclaimed apocalypse dreamers Frankie and Liv, who were in a uniquely weird place when it came to watching this week’s mum-ringing 6 music darling. We’re more than alright with this pod!

March 28, 2024 S3 EP1: Gilla Band with Michael Fry
The pigs are officially back gigging (/uploading discussions of more gigs we pigged in 2023) and what a jewel (emerald) we have to kick things off: multi-instrumental viral alchemist and late-noughties Oxegen mainstay Michael Fry, guiding us through the scorching intensity of his compatriots Gilla Band and their lamentably cursed garage, as experienced at Fabric in December. We try not to boast and put it on toast, but we'll be honest with you: we're big fans of this episode!

February 10, 2024 Pig Tales: Foxes & Hedgehogs
How many Beatles songs is Paul McCartney obliged to play at Glastonbury? How many Beta Band songs is Steve Mason obliged to play at Green Man? And how many Gig Pigs songs will Foxes and Hedgehogs be obliged to play at the Amersham Arms? Both of them, we hope, as Alex and Ivo talk to Dan and Jack of F&H, soundtrackers to the pod, ahead of February 16th’s collision of worlds in south east London. Tuck into this hallmark pre-gig pig, also featuring Kombu Nori and Jeez Lluis, and join us on Friday night! We’ll share only a few hours but you’ll remember every minute!

December 14, 2023 S2 EP11: Youth Lagoon with James Acaster
This is how we gig, with our face to the pig, and we were delighted to do so this week with comedy’s most dedicated music purchaser and reorderer, James Acaster, after a trip to watch newly unretired Idahoan dream-popper Youth Lagoon, with some solid time allotted to wedding DJs, prepared shibboleths and a one-man anti-Slipknot protest at Reading Festival 2000.

It’s the last episode-with-guest til Christmas but we’ll still be putting out Gigzard-Wizard over the festive break so don’t stop downloading, the day that you do is the day that you die!

December 07, 2023 S2 EP10: Bombay Bicycle Club with Georgia Graham
Has Ivo always been like this? No one more qualified to answer than this week’s guest, his very own sister, joining us to eat, sleep, gig (nothing but pig) at apparently the most beautiful venue Bombay Bicycle Club have ever played! Nostalgia heavy even by our standards this week: it’s that ancient love that you won't outgrow! Support your local record store!

November 30, 2023 S2 EP9: Haim with Alison Spittle
You know we’re bad at communication, it's the hardest thing for us to do, and it's said, it's the most important part that podcasters need to do! In this case, one pretty honking error from Ivo in the top, apologised for profusely in the tail, with an hour and a bit of glorious Alison Spittle (we've forever believed in their insight) in the middle, chatting Shrek suits, Mumba marquees, and a stunning night watching “our Rumours” in full in west London! Now! We're! Talking!

November 23, 2023 S2 EP8: Boygenius with Felicity Ward
Give us everything you've got, we’ll take what we can get, we want to hear your story and be a part of it! The casual text that snagged nominated nut-buster and Office reinventer Felicity Ward to join us for true-blue indie supergroup Boygenius at Pryzm Kingston and then answer some easy questions about work and school for a souvenir. It was a good idea, and she was all about it, a joyous guest with enough passion, portmanteaus and pearls of wisdom about builders’ qualifications to more than compensate for Ivo having being in Edinburgh and not Kingston. Sometimes the concert, always the pod! Sometimes the concert, always the pod!

November 09, 2023 S2 EP7: The National with Stuart Laws and Helena Wadia
Leave your home, watch a gig, wait a week, do a pig! A colossal ep reflecting on two dumb, slow shows at the Ally Pally by a band who don’t know how much we love them, do they? Serial Berningerer Helena Wadia and montage connoisseur Stuart Laws join to try and figure out everything at once, from novelty bombs v novelty bongs to just how much money, how much money, Ive-owes! Sign up to the Patreon because we’re desperate to entertain!

November 02, 2023 S2 EP6: First Aid Kit with Chloe Petts
Gig-pigger, where you been? You look so worn, so thin. To be fair, it was halfway through the Fringe when the pod that doesn’t take the easy road, the easy road, bundled Chloe Petts, classiest glasser in town, into the Pleasance Cabaret Bar to find the silver linings in a chagrin heavy evening at the “hideous” O2 Academy. And before we even get to it - and its side helpings of Kasabian pits, Killers passwords and, obviously, G4 - there’s a windy intro that truly is the sound of Keals and his disgrace.

About Gig Pigs with Ivo Graham and Alex Kealy

From the publisher's feed

Seated or standing? Support band or drinks? Sing along as loudly as possible or watch in respectful silence? These are the dilemmas that have plagued Ivo and Alex - stand up comedians by night, gig pigs by night off - over a decade and a half of watching live music together and it’s time to start opening them up to the floor. Join them every Thursday to find out who they’ve been to see live this week, and which guest they roped along for the ride.
