Episode 72 in which Hugh Fort, Rachel Nemeth and Tom Canning cover the usual features plus and chat with special guest Rob Callaghan from HMV Reading. We cover everything from what happened when the store shut in February, live music Thursday's and what is being done to secure the future. Also on the podcast this week, we celebrate The Oracle's 20th birthday, have a bit of another quiz and discover where our team's parents used to take them for a treat. Let prattle commence! If you like our new intro music, it's Real Life by Reading's own Twin Sun. More on them here.
