We had a chat with Laurie from UK punk band Soft Play while we were supporting them on their tour. We had a really great chat about the paradox of music media, how when they stopped giving a shit things changed for the better, the origins of Heavy Jelly, the importance of showing up for yourself, and the triangle of mind, body and soul. Shout outs to all the crew we met at our shows on the Soft Play tour, as well as the amazing crowd for our headline show on the GC. What a turn out! Was seriously one of our favourite shows ever!! RESPECT

Pleasure to have me. On this week’s bonus ep we talk about going on safari, the magpie that tried to land on Jamie’s back, getting crushed like a kinder surprise, the man who stole Todd’s toast, Paddington the bear, and we watch the Natasha Exelby news fail again.
