NO ENCORE

We're back! It's been two long months and boy are we glad to see you, listener.

Even more glad we are to be in the company of Indo Sport series producer Ronan Mullen for his debut NO ENCORE appearance, and in a beautiful collision of worlds, he's consulted his playbook and we're going to re-run some of the most superb Super Bowl Halftime performances to ever grace our eyes and ears. We are in Super Bowl week, after all – and you can be sure we didn't impose on ourselves the same twelve-minute time limit for this podcast!

As well as that we have much to catch up on, including on January's Patreon offerings including Dave and Andy's Film Club Awards 2025, part 1 of our Q&A episode, as well as Album Club and Film Club's regular offerings; sign up here if you are yet to – annual memberships come with a 10% discount!

Let's get into it...

ACT ONE: We have much to catch up on from taking the month off, so we do exactly that.

ACT TWO (15:33): Grammys discussions including the many facets of the ICE discourse from Billie Eilish, Bad Bunny, Jelly Roll and Jack Antonoff, photos emerge from the forthcoming Beatles biopics, Timothée Chalamet puts his money where his mouth is, Red Hot Chilli Peppers documentary is not a Red Hot Chilli Peppers documentary, apparently, and Kid Rock heads up the alternative Super Bowl half time programming – it's the news.

ACT THREE (1:04:34): Top 5 Super Bowl Halftime Shows

Another trip around the sun inevitably means another highlight reel as Sonic Architect Adam returns for his annual vocation of combing through the year's episodes and filtering out the best bits to enjoy at your leisure over the holiday period; and no less than three and a half hours worth, mind you!

Enjoy revisiting the laughs with us one last time as we pull the shutters down on NO ENCORE proper until February, however we will return in mid-January over on the NO ENCORE Patreon with bonus content to keep you tiding over until we return.

Thanks to all who listened in 2025, longstanding listener or no – it's been a fantastic year and we couldn't have done it without you.

Happy Christmas!

We've bloody gone and done it again - another year is almost in the books and so it's time to review the standout art and artistes of 2025.

Heroes and villains, songs and albums, and plenty more besides go under the critical spotlight, including a category that almost got lost to miscommunication.

Dave Hanratty (the guilty party on that aforementioned communication snafu) and Sonic Architect Adam (entirely innocent) are joined in studio by the all-star team of Fionnuala Jones, Richard Chambers, and Craig Fitzpatrick.

Expect plenty of spirited disagreements, mostly friendly debates, and goodwill to all mankind.

...honk.
