Jon and Simon wander through music, tech, memories, tangents, and the occasional existential wobble. Unscripted, unfiltered, and unquestionably something.
Lockdown anxiety, international affairs, personal scars, great music. No headers or footers—just raw and real.

Episode 1: Relaunch Episode
The fantastic relaunch episode... was unfortunately lost due to operator error. So here we have - a relaunch episode. Covering Bitcoin and other tech, War On Drugs, High Flying Birds, Yes and some other music, the tarmac outside Ed O'Brien's house, dry stone walling, the screams of baby rabbits and a smorgasbord of bits and bobs, in one carefully packaged conversation. Or something. Well, at least it's here.
