Lock up your stottie cakes, 'cause this week we're joined by Newcastle's very own Fast Blood. Well, we're joined by 50% of the band (and 50% of its Daves): Davey the drummer and Abi the vocalist.

We discuss retro computer games (bonus points if you spot the hidden game theme music), when things started going down hill in the world, irritating pets, riots, our home towns and of course we squeeze in a bit of chat about their band.

Niallism's off at a pop concert this week so Tom has soldiered on ably assisted by Danny Barrett off The Crash Mats. We talk bad santas, unserious music journalists, offer advice to some social anxiety sufferers and get a gig report from Robin Hood's Bay.

Tuneful offerings this week come courtesy of: Reason To Leave, Popclaw, Panda Lasagne, Mean Jeans and Fucked Up
