On this special bonus episode of MOUTH-OFF, Clary opens up The Evidence Locker, taking a rummage through over forty years of poems, songs, notebooks, schoolwork, unfinished ideas and assorted creative evidence. Originally created to accompany Clary’s Cultural Cwtch Blog #74, this audio essay explores creativity, memory, influence, originality and the strange ways that words, images and ideas can follow us through our lives. From childhood poems and teenage existential crises to recurring moons, Manic Street Preachers chord sheets, spectacularly misheard Nirvana lyrics and songs written decades apart, Clary traces some of the fingerprints that have remained across her creative work. Along the way, you'll hear readings from the archive, reflections on the people and music that shaped her writing, and acoustic excerpts from some of the songs themselves. The next full episode of MOUTH-OFF to drop in the main feed, Exclamation!, will be arriving in time for Halloween which, given that things get rather spooky, feels unexpectedly appropriate.

On this special bonus episode of MOUTH-OFF, we take a festive detour into the world of Welsh folklore, winter traditions, Celtic music, storytelling and inclusive creativity. Although it's June rather than December, we're incredibly proud of The Welsh Christmas Capers, a National Lottery HERITAGE FUND-supported project delivered by RCT Learning Curve in partnership with Forget-Me-Not Productions and Word Groove Collective. Following the project's evaluation in May, we wanted to share some of the creative work that emerged along the way. Over the past year, participants from Gadlys, Llwynypia and Ty Draw Day Services explored Welsh winter traditions including Mari Lwyd, Plygain, Calennig and Noson Gyflaith through music, film-making, storytelling, performance, cookery, visual arts and assistive technology. In this episode you'll hear excerpts from the project's films, original songs, documentary features and audio story, alongside reflections on how participants brought Welsh heritage to life through their own creativity and communication styles. From rhyme battles and horse skulls (seriously) to magical toffee, ghostly carols and original songs, this is a celebration of Welsh culture, collaboration and imagination. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Welsh Christmas Capers was delivered by RCT Learning Curve in partnership with Forget-Me-Not Productions and Word Groove Collective, with funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Special thanks to the participants, families and staff at Gadlys, Llwynypia and Ty Draw Day Services whose creativity, enthusiasm and contributions made the project possible. All media clips, films, documentary features, audio productions and project content featured in this episode were produced by Forget-Me-Not Productions as part of The Welsh Christmas Capers. "Dancing with Your Heart" is performed by Word Groove Collective. Lyrics by Gavin Clifton. Music by Clary Saddler.

On this episode of Mouth-Off I chat to AL STEELE, JAMES WARREN of THE KORGIS, and author, lyricist, disability rights activist  and  MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER & AAC USER, GAVIN CLIFTON. AL, JAMES, and GAVIN each bring a unique perspective on CREATIVITY, SONGWRITING, and the power of MUSIC to connect people. GAVIN collaborates with host CLARY SADDLER through WORD GROOVE COLLECTIVE, where he writes lyrics and advocates for greater ACCESSIBILITY and representation for people who use AUGMENTATIVE AND ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATION (AAC). We get to here their creative journeys, the stories behind their work, and the ways music can inspire, challenge, and bring people together. We also explore a wide range of topics including SONGWRITING, SYNC PLACEMENT, COLLABORATION, the changing MUSIC INDUSTRY, DISABILITY RIGHTS, ACCESSIBILITY IN THE ARTS, creative influences, and the importance of finding and maintaining your own ARTISTIC VOICE. We also play a round of "SYNC OR SINK?", putting our guests' music industry instincts to the test, and delve into the world of DIEGETIC and NON-DIEGETIC MUSIC, exploring how music functions within film, television, and other media. It's a lively and thought-provoking conversation packed with insights, humour, industry knowledge, and plenty of musical stories along the way.

In this episode of Mouth-Off, we dive headfirst into one of the biggest creative debates of our time: AI  threat or liberation? Voice-cloning. AI music. Text-to-speech. Plagiarism panic. Copyright chaos. We’ve heard the dystopian headlines. But what happens when AI isn’t replacing creativity — it’s enabling it? 🎧 In this episode A frank personal reflection on using AI as a disabled-led creative (when is it a helper, and when is it a hijacker?)

This Pride Month, Mouth-Off revisits a milestone from the archive: Welsh and Proud – Schools’ Songwriting Sessions (2014). Funded by the Arts Council of Wales and produced by Forget-Me-Not Productions — our first project as a Ltd company — this initiative brought together over 150 pupils from five Cardiff secondary schools to create original LGBTQIA+ themed anthems. The winning song, The Person Within, was professionally recorded, filmed, and screened on the main stage at Cardiff Pride 2014. A decade later, we untangle the cables, revisit the voices, and reflect on the queer legacy of music, memory, and visibility. 🎧 In this episode: Archival clips from the original project Interviews with participating teachers, judges, and community figures A musical montage of student submissions A tribute to late supporters and judges Scott Travers and Ian Bazzard (Bazz) Audio from sister projects United Community and Homophonic is Gay Reflections on ageism, allyship, and protest A Cwtch live set snippet An excerpt from Claire Dowie’s Why is John Lennon Wearing a Skirt? as part of the Cultural Cwtch 🎵 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Theme music: Intro and Outro by Clary Saddler Featuring: The Person Within – by pupils from Mary Immaculate School United Community – by pupils at Willows High School and Clary Saddler Live Out Loud (LOL) – by pupils from Fitzalan School and Clary Saddler Don’t Hide Away in the Shadows – by pupils of Michaelston Community College and Clary Saddler Pam Padlocks – by pupils from Ysgol Plasmawr and Radyr Comprehensive School Mirrors – by pupils from Bro Edern and Clary Saddler Unity – by pupils from Bishop of Llandaff School Forget-Me-Not – by Cwtch Good Thing – by Cwtch Confide in Me (Kylie Minogue Cover) – by Cwtch Shiver – by Cwtch Remember Me – by Cwtch Turn to You – by Cwtch Unreal Reality – by Word Groove Collective Claire Dowie monologue excerpt – Why is John Lennon Wearing a Skirt?

UPRISING was first performed in 2015, commissioned by The Project Space in Newport and produced by Forget-Me-Not Productions. It was a multimedia, site-specific performance exploring political disenfranchisement, media control, and class struggle, drawing from Newport’s Chartist history and the social climate leading up to the 2015 general election. Through live music, immersive theatre, and audience participation, it questioned who really holds power and how democracy is manipulated. A decade later, in 2025, this Mouth-Off episode revisits UPRISING...through its original music, propaganda-inspired soundscapes, and interviews reflecting on its themes in today’s political landscape.

To coincide with the release of my new book KYLIE MINOGUE ALBUM-BY-ALBUM STICK OR TWIST?

As you may know, if you listened to the final Mouth-Off episode of season one - where I interviewed music enthusiast and my fellow RUBYSHOES band mate (and fellow GAY), JAY BRADLEY-HOFFMAN; I have recently finished my Kylie book, which is being published by WHITE OWL at the end of June (2024). I am also currently in the process of planning the follow up book, KYLIE MINOGUE: A SHOWGIRL ON TOUR. To coincide with these projects and to celebrate PRIDE MONTH, Jay and I finished our chat.

Last year, I interviewed music critic (Albumism) and author of the "Record Redux" series, Quentin Harrison, to discuss all things related to the ultimate gay icon, Ms. Kylie Minogue. The "Record Redux" series is a ten-book set dedicated to “resetting the critical narratives of influential and often misrepresented women in pop music.” Previous editions have profiled the careers of the Spice Girls, Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Carly Simon, and Donna Summer, with Janet Jackson still in the making. To celebrate Pride Month and to coincide with the release of my book, "Kylie Minogue Album-by-Album: Stick or Twist?" (out June 30, 2024), I had another chat with Quentin. This time, we discussed Kylie’s recent renaissance, her enduring legacy, and her latest release, "Tension."

For the season FINALE of Mouth-Off we will be giving you a two-part special feature about everyone’s favourite gay icon KYLIE MINOGUE. As you may know, if you listened to the previous Mouth-Off episode (where I interviewed author QUENTIN HARRISON); I have recently finished a book all about Kylie. It is called STICK OR TWIST: KYLIE MINOGUE ALBUM BY ALBUM and is being published by Pen and Sword Publishers late next year (2024). I am also currently in the process of writing the follow up book, KYLIE MINOGUE: A SHOWGIRL ON TOUR. To coincide with these projects and to celebrate PRIDE MONTH, I chatted with my good friend, sometimes music collaborator and “fellow gay”, JAY HOFFMAN. Jay suggested we do a review of the concert openers from all of Kylie’s tours, so we did, and we recorded our chat. This is part one, we hope you enjoy. #PADAMPADAM.   ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Intro Music Padam Padam Extended Mix (Wroldsen and Rycroft) - by Kylie Minogue The Loco-Motion (Goffin and King) – Disco in Dream Tour The Loco-Motion (Goffin and King) – Enjoy Yourself Tour Step Back in Time/Count the Days (Stock, Aitken, Waterman) – Rhythm of Love Tour Step Back in Time (Stock, Aitken, Waterman) – Let’s Get to it Tour Too Far (Minogue) – Intimate and Live Tour Loveboat (Minogue, Chambers and Williams) – On a Night Like This Tour Come into My World (Denis and Davis) – Fever2002 Tour Still Standing (Baby Ash and Strum) – Money Can’t Buy Tour Outro Music Padam Padam Extended Mix (Wroldsen and Rycroft) - by Kylie Minogue

A couple of years back, Mouth-Off did two episodes on the UK's MOST beloved pop queen - KYLIE MINOGUE. I interviewed two superfans (Mikey Phillips and Jay Hoffman). We dissected Kylie's first self-titled album KYLIE, as well as her most recent album DISCO. The episodes acted as bookends to Ms Minogue's career up to that point. Since then, I have written a book called STICK OR TWIST: KYLIE MINOGUE ALBUM BY ALBUM which is due to be released late 2024. As part of my research I interviewed author, blogger and music critic, QUENTIN HARRISON. Quentin is the author of the RECORD REDUX series; a 10-book set dedicated to “resetting the critical narratives of influential and often misrepresented women in pop music.” Previous editions profiled the careers of the Spice Girls,  Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Carly Simon and Donna Summer. Next up  Harrison will spotlight Janet Jackson. On today's episode we discuss all things Kylie Minogue.

Mouth-Off is a platform for marginalised communities to share their stories. On a typical episode we tend to cover topics that affect marginalised groups, such as gender equality, disability or substance misuse. This month we are doing things a bit differently. We are adding a surprise instalment to our BONUS mini-series Be Pure, Be Vigilant, Behave, which is about Welsh rock band - Manic Street Preachers. In part 6, Mouth-Off's host Clary Saddler interviews producer and sound engineer, DAVE ERINGA. We discuss Dave's experiences producing the Manics, including when they collaborated on KYLIE MINOGUE'S 1997 "indie" album - IMPOSSIBLE PRINCESS. Dave shares his musical perspectives on their contributions to that album, as well as giving us some Manics related anecdotes.

On today’s episode of Mouth-Off I interviewed retired auditor, turned substitute teacher DAVID RICHARDS. David’s background may be in auditing but his passion is educating and inspiring others. David has cerebral palsy and draws on his experiences with disability to be a role model to others. Although David's arm and hand function is significally impaired in one arm this has not stopped him living a full life. He enjoys playing a range of sports and is also a keen artist.   ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Intro Music - music by Clary Saddler Interlude 1 - music by Clary Saddler Incidental - music by Clary Saddler Interlude 2 - music by Clary Saddler Tick Tock - music and lyrics by Clary Saddler In the Mix (Virtual DJ eyegaze mash-up) - music and lyrics (for 'Bad Decisions') by Max Martin, Savan Kotecha, Ilya Salmanzadeh, and Ariana Grande, music and lyrics (for 'Don't) by Ed Sheeran and Benny Blanco.
