This week, we fulfil a long-standing listener request (hello, Lindsay) and dig into Manic Street Preachers’ Everything Must Go. Expect the usual blend of forensic music analysis and complete shambles, as we celebrate Lindsay’s loyalty, discuss how long we’ve been doing this (answers vary from three to seventy-five years), and try to work out what day it is.

Chris reveals his secret life as a Download Festival rock star, we reminisce about Monster Shop, Dog House, and all our previous attempts at podcast branding, and then lose several minutes to the technicalities of coin tossing with a key fob. (Spoiler: it does not go smoothly.)

Other highlights: debating the merits of Apocalyptica’s cello-based Metallica covers, the agony of coming up with a new sign-off, and realising—eventually—that Riffology is now an actual thing, at least according to Google.

Dry, meandering, and occasionally insightful, as ever.
