Description

We are Dave and Jake, two 60 year old music fans, and we take on a different theme per episode and pick five relevant songs each. We cover music from the 60's to now, and more or less any genre you can think of. From Punk to Pop, Reggae to Northern Soul, Drum N Bass to Ambient, if it's out there, we'll listen to it. Our best review ever said: "I love this podcast. My new favourite. Never heard Throbbing Gristle and Taylor Swift discussed in any depth in the same decade - let alone in the same conversation."

Episode Twenty Four - Attack Of The Killer Bs

2026/02/05

We present a trawl through some great B sides, starting with an explanation of what a B side is for you youngsters. Lots of unnecessary singing, what's goth and what's not goth, the inaccurate history of dub, some skanking, Britain's Scariest Gigs, and lots more shenanigans.

Episode Twenty Three - Happy Happy Joy Joy

2026/01/26

To compliment our romp through a selection of sad songs last time, in this episode we're happy, happy, happy chatting about the songs that make us feel happy! So have a listen, and feel happy and gay!!

Episode Twenty Two - Down In The Dumps

2026/01/15

It's our saddest songs. No tears, but plenty of bumbling around, forgetting what we were talking about, disagreements about whether disco songs can be sad. You know, the usual.

Episode Twenty One - When We Were Twenty

2026/01/05

We revisit 1985, well someone had to. Shenanigans galore, some goth, some feedback, some panpipes. Huh? Panpipes? Bloody panpipes? Are we mad? Quite possibly.

Episode Twenty - When We Were Young

2025/12/24

We discuss being young with a selection of old 70's pop hits we would have heard on the radio and Top Of The Pops when we were aged 5 - 11. Obviously it goes without saying that we stray off topic numerous times and Jake says "Oh dear" a lot.

Episode Nineteen - Simply The Best (of 2025)

2025/12/15

We go through our Top 10s of 2025, with detours into overpriced records and merch, a rambling explanation of Hauntology, rating Jake's jokes out of 10 and the usual old rubbish.

Episode Eighteen - It's Alive!

2025/12/05

We discuss some amazing gigs we've been to as well as moaning about the distress of having to change trains at our age, falling over as opposed to having a fall, time travel via extreme volume and all of the usual shenanigans.

Episode Seventeen - Totally Random Man

2025/11/25

We each pick 5 songs that we really, really like. That's a nice simple one. We also cover Jive Bunny, band names with swear words in them and whether it's appropriate to use said swear words, while obviously using them, rubbish remixes and lots more pointless old rubbish.

Episode Sixteen - We're The Boys Making All The Noise

2025/11/17

We pick some of our favourite male voices. We also discuss singing with an accent, gravelly voices, the role of wankiness in Prog rock, along with the usual sophisticated humour and discourse you've come to expect.

Episode Fifteen - Duck & Cover

2025/11/07

We compile some of our favourite cover versions. There are also obscure Kids TV references, saving the world from alien invasion via the medium of bad karaoke, plus the usual going off on tangents, bad jokes, amnesia and general lack of professionalism.

Episode Fourteen - 1997 Revisited And We Feel Very Old

2025/10/30

We reminisce about 1997. Dave almost finishes a sentence, Jake is as erudite as ever. There are Marianne Faithfull cards making a racket, forgotten gigs, at least one reasonably funny joke, an astounding amount of Instagram views and all the usual mishaps.

Episode Thirteen - Not Superstitious

2025/10/17

We compile some of our favourite female fronted bands. Jake reveals he can speak Icelandic, Dave get's the title of one of his favourite LPs wrong. Twice! And doesn't even notice. Amateur! There's chortling, chuckling and at least one guffaw.

Episode Twelve - What Do You Call An Episode That's All About The Year 1989?

2025/10/05

We investigate the musically fruitful year of 1989. Dave's memory proves as reliable as ever, Jake get's a new DJ moniker.

Episode Eleven - The Big Chill

2025/09/26

The ambient episode. Chill out as we discuss our favourite ambient LPs, and along the way touch on Dave's precarious mental health, Jake's escalator technique, crackling, ghostly voices, and even a couple of serious bits. Plus stay tuned till the end for details of Music Is None Of Our Business bingo!

Episode Ten - Singles Club

2025/09/10

After the 2 hour compilation marathon, an hour long sprint through a few brilliant singles. Allegedly. We still managed to go over an hour, even with only five picks each.
