  1. Number 1: The Great Divide, Episode 51

    Kirsten Adamson joins us for an in-depth discussion about her debut self-titled album. For the synaptically challenged among you, that means it's called "Kirsten Adamson." We go through the album track by track to glean Kirsten's insights on the songs from both a writing and production standpoint. We also ask her to rate the weirdness factor of fans of her dad's band who've been aware of her since she was young now taking an interest in her career. Spoiler alert: she doesn't think it's very weird. After the interview, Svein and Tom go over a few Big Country topics, including the upcoming Seer tour and a potential revival of our Seer Robin Millar Mix petition.

  2. Number 2: The Great Divide, Episode 50

    Tom returns to the show after a five month absence just in time to celebrate the fiftieth episode of the podcast. Svein and Tom discuss current happenings in Big Country land and receive a congratulatory message from a special guest. Well, special to Tom and Svein, anyway. After 30 years, thanks to a Polish listener, Tom learns how to pronounce Mark's last name. Well, maybe. Then the hosts tackle a series of Big Country questions with a three-minute time limit for their combined answers. Once the buzzer rings, it's on to the next question. Finally, the show mercifully ends as Tom and Svein bathe in riches. Separately.
