Come on, come on, put your hands into the fire and brimstone of Ivo’s student music journalism. Does his article about the premier Cornwallian bedwetters of the mid noughties rehash too many of the themes of his Bloc Party piece? Well, (a) it doesn’t, and (b) we think you’ll enjoy Alex hauling him over the coals for his straw men, his definition of “spooky” and his prioritisation of Scroobius Pip over the original Ten Commandments.

S4 EP12: Desert Island Nicks
After being pipped to the pod by Lauren Laverne last week, the boys’ Cave dwelling continues into a bonus episode about his eight choices, the people who have taken his songs to the island, and a simply excellent (if stressful) associated game from Alex.

S4 EP11: Nick Cave with John Kearns
We don’t believe in an interventionist pod, but we know, darling, that you do. From font size to Five Guys, ogling bulges to leathering pipes, we invite Edinburgh Comedy Award double winner the Kearnel to pick over a long dark night in Nick’s red right hands, moving through the flames of anarchy and the winds of tyranny and also the difference between Reiss and M&S suit sizes. Do yourself a father! He’s there!

S4 EP10: Album of the Year
Here's the thing: in the modern world you don't reveal your favourite album of 2024 until three weeks into 2025. A chaotic Christmas on Excel resolves itself with the final present of the year being unwrapped: a top-heavy but fundamentally colossal album which dominated the vote despite Alex and Ivo nobly/disingenuously swerving it with their own selections. Thanks to all who submitted, congratulations to our lottery winners, and sorry to those whose choices narrowly missed out! It may feel bad!

S4 EP9: Hootenanny
A new year means an old us (releasing NYE content on Jan 16th, with the Gig Pigs Album of the Year to follow next week). Sophie Ellis Bextor, Jools Holland, and more ageless figures in the spotlight as the pigs ruminate once more on music based TV, music based board games and the music based passage of time. Bring on 2025!

Seated or standing? Support band or drinks? Sing along as loudly as possible or watch in respectful silence? These are the dilemmas that have plagued Ivo and Alex - stand up comedians by night, gig pigs by night off - over a decade and a half of watching live music together and it’s time to start opening them up to the floor. Join them every Thursday to find out who they’ve been to see live this week, and which guest they roped along for the ride.
