This week we’re totally delighted  to welcome a founding member of Ferocious Dog, Dan Booth. We’re getting stuck into a truly great genre compilation in Now Live Forever: The Anthems released 28th May 2021.  We’re chatting leaving not one but two bands (who could we be talking about, things that are and are not ironic and that bloody Babylon Zoo song AGAIN. And yes Dan sings it because it wouldn’t be a proper discussion of it without.

This week we’re so pleased to welcome back the delightful Stu and Alex from It’ll Be Alright in The 90’s podcast for an overdue Christmas Now! episode. We’re taking on Now - The Christmas Album released 27th November 2000 and it’s… interesting. We’re chatting a very common (maybe) Bing Crosby misconception, the origins of Mistletoe and Wine, truly terrible but perhaps  financially necessary covers and possible David Bowie hallucinations. Also, Kathryn and Alex prove themselves to be as pure as the freshly fallen snow when it comes to that The Darkness Christmas song…

This week, we’re joined by Dan’s band mate, Levellers’ bassist, Jeremy Cunningham. We’ve dispensed the usual structure this ep and having an in depth chat with Jeremy about Now That’s What I Call Music (and many other things!) Jeremy has appeared in a documentary about Now! so he’s got some interesting insights for us. We’re chatting the Now! based honour The Levellers hold. If anyone can locate the mysterious compilation with 15 years on it please get in touch!

If you’re loving The Levellers content, you can go back into our archives for Episode 1 and listen to Mark Chadwick discuss another Levellers appearance on Now 33 or E15 with Charlie Heather discussing Now 26.

This week we’re so pleased to welcome the wonderful Peter Brewis from Field Music. After a while in the 90’s and 00’s we are back in the early days of 'Now', with Now 10 released on the 5th December 1987. We’re chatting about how  pop music in 1987 was actually quite socialist, that everyone’s favourite Christmas song was a product of ‘double pneumonia’ and why, even though they may end after 3 minutes and 39 seconds, some power ballads will just never stop.

This week we’re very happy to welcome the delightful Paul and Dave from from What’s the Story 90’s Glory podcast.  We’re not only sticking with the 90s but also with the 30’s with the really rather good Now 39 released  6th April 1998. We’re chatting a much loved song that Dan has never heard of, whether Lady in Red is really all that bad (this is a hill Dave is willing to die on), why Robbie Williams is the most featured artist ever on Now and what people who like Oasis say when they go to the hairdressers.

This week we’re so pleased to welcome the wonderful Stu and Alex from It’ll Be Alright in The 90’s podcast. After our foray into the 00’s, we’re back in our safe place of the 90s with another excellent in-the-30’s compilation, Now 37 released 14th July 1997. We’re chatting another Radiohead favourite (surely the most acclaimed artist on this podcast?), bands who peaked with their first albums and who the most 90’s band ever were. Also, Stu and Alex have a very 90s sponsor for us.

We’ve been away for bloody ages but we’re back and in this episode we’re keeping it in the family with Kathryn’s younger sister and DICE Artist Development person, Ciara Johnson. We’re charging  boldly into the 2000’s with this banger of a compilation, Now 66, released 2nd April 2007. We’re chatting who’s the new Shabba Ranks, how to get a song on TV in the 00’s, yodelling and a very unhelpful typo on Now's part. Also, get ready to hear the word ‘banger’ consistently for almost an hour. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!

This week, Dan is going solo and having a good old chat with his touring buddy, Charlie Heather, drummer of The Levellers. They’re chatting about The Levellers first appearance on a Now compilation, Now 26 released 15th November 1993. Dan and Charlie talk about why U2 owe the Levellers a few quid, how Charlie finds Meat Loaf  “a bit stressful" and what happened when Top of the Pops suggested a wardrobe change to The Levellers.

This week we’re by the amazing folk duo, Kathryn Roberts and Sean Lakeman . We’re hitting the start of a new decade with Now 1990 released 8th August 1993. We talk the brilliant melodies of the early 90’s, Sean’s thoughts on Candy Dulfer and find out why you’ll soon be googling Belinda Carlisle… so come on in and join us for a romp through the musical wastelands (or not!) of 1990!

This week we’re joined by Brighton based DJ duo, Just A Couple of Mums. We’re doing another big decade by getting the Mums to look through a compilation that features a lot of their DJ set list favourites, Now 80’s released 6th September 2015. This is a banger of a Now album so we struggle to say much bad about it but we do get to chat about Red, Red Wine (again), playing The Smith’s at a wedding and the genuinely difficult question of whether or not it’s ok to still play Michael Jackson.
