Chris and George are joined by Andrew Paresi, Morrissey’s drummer in the very early solo years, across Viva Hate, Bona Drag and Kill Uncle, when the singer’s identity as a standalone artist was first cemented. He tells us about the moment he knew he’d been fired, his immediate reaction to the lyrics of ‘November Spawned A Monster’ and how he believes Moz predicted the politics and cancel culture we live through today in 2025. 

Nanny Val, George's grandma, is back to react to another track, as suggested by our Patreon subscribers. The ten-question quiz returns and this time it’s Chris putting George in the hot seat. We analyse the lyrics of ‘What Kind Of People Live In These Houses’ and we bring you a couple of “if you love Morrissey then you’ll love this” recommendations.
