Today, Global Editorial Director of GQ and Pitchfork Will Welch joins me to talk about the OutKast classic ‘ATLiens’. Will takes us on a journey from discovering the record as a kid in Atlanta to meeting and writing about Andre and Big Boi as a journalist, living in the world they were writing about on the record, the comic book that accompanied the CD, the musical partnership between Andre and Big Boi, the Dungeon Family Cinematic Universe, how OutKast kept it weird as they got more popular, Andre 3000’s flute album and much more.

We also talk about his recent documentary on Jason Isbell’s new album ‘Foxes in the Snow’, which you can watch here - https://www.thesametruthproductions.com/

The Queen of gnarly noir rock'n'roll, from Alabama via Nashville, Hannah Aldridge joins Jeremy Dylan for a delve into her epochal childhood favorite: Radiohead's Hail to the Thief.

We roar back into life for our 2025 season with the podcast crossover that nobody but us was asking for, as co-host of venerated blockbuster Beatles podcast Steven Cockcroft joins Jeremy Dylan to talk about George Harrison's solo classic 'Living in the Material World'.

In amongst numerous fab-adjacent tangents, Steven and Jeremy talk about the long shadow All Things Must Pass casts over this record, Ringo Starr and Jim Keltner's innovative double drumming techniques, the lead piano of the legendary Nicky Hopkins, how this album might have served as a template for the rest of Harrison's recording career, Harrison's bitterness around the Beatles and the push and pull between his spirituality and material appetites, lawyer-based hoedowns, Harrison's extremely intermittent history as a live act and more.

Plus, Steven shares his memories of attending the amazing Concert for George tribute night featuring every single living (at the time) rock legend plus a surprise Monty Python reunion.

Today we sadly lost the legendary Marianne Faithfull, so in tribute we are resharing this episode from 2016 with Emma Swift celebrating Faithfull's classic album 'Broken English'.

Queen of the Sadcore Bangers Emma Swift returns to the show to talk about Marianne Faithfull’s brittle, confronting classic ‘Broken English’.

Faithfull started her career being exploited as a folk-pop starlet, hitting rock bottom with drugs and homelessness and then taking control of her life and identity with this album. Emma and I talk about the cock forrest of the punk / new wave scene, how women are often written out of pop history, the inappropriate way Emma discovered the album, how it’s influencing the shift in her music from despair to rage, and more.

After the tragic loss of Jack Colwell this past week, I wanted to share this conversation with Jack celebrating his hero Tori Amos. I have such great memories of recording this chat with Jack, I feel like it captured him at his most ebuliant, articulate and insightful. He was one of a kind and will be deeply missed by a lot of people.

-----

Sydney singer-songwriter Jack Colwell makes the case for Tori Amos as a transformative figure in pop - a woman who seized her major-label power to create sophisticated adult pop music, bridging the divide between classical and pop, creating a unique sound and exploring her complicated relationship with her religious upbringing and femininity.

My guest is a musician, songwriter and artist who has never stopped evolving and exploring, from LA to New Orleans to Nashville. Her new EP Fumbling Towards Glory is out now, five years in the making and as she says, is her way of honouring the mess - her mess - of growing up, coming face to face either her own ambition, desire, doubt and experiencing the turmoil and beauty that accompanies is.

Today, Polish Club frontman Novak joins host Jeremy Dylan to discuss the Arctic Monkey’s divisive cult classic album ‘Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino’, the sci-fi concept album that followed up the rock’n’roll behemoth of AM.

Jeremy and Novak reminisce about their days as office-mates, Novak coming out as a singer at karaoke, ageing in rock’n’roll, why so many artists both love and envy this album, the artistic bravery of following their biggest commercial hit with a ‘jazzy concept album about eating pizza on the moon’, the alternate reality where this was an Alex Turner solo album, how swerving musically helps sustain a long career and more.

Listen to the new Polish Club album 'Heavy Weight Heart', out now!

Acclaimed singer-songwriter Queenie joins host Jeremy Dylan to talk about Black Keys frontman Dan Auerbach's 2017 solo album 'Waiting on a Song'.

Queenie talks about how her journey as a fan of the Black Keys and Dan Auerbach coincided with moving to Melbourne from Tasmania, the thrill of following someone’s career as a fan from the start, why calling it a solo record is almost a misnomer, the legendary collaborators on the album, why the album is a love letter to Nashville, how Auerbach cashed in his rock star chips to make this record, the influence of the Traveling Wilbury’s, the visual elements of Dan’s music and more.

Queen also talks about the process of making her new album with producer Josh Barber, and taking inspiration from Auerbach’s production style to layer in unusual sounds and textures.

Comedian, author, actor, musician and more Michelle Braisier joins Jeremy Dylan to talk about Once, the album of music by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová from the classic film of the same name.

Michelle discusses the intimacy and sincerity that powers the film, the beautiful sadness of the music, her annual rewatches of the film in memory of her brother, whether the film is a musical or not, people who hate musicals but like superhero movies, songs that she can’t sing without crying, the blurred lines between Hansard and Irglove and their characters, getting RSI auditioning for the stage musical adaption of Once and much more.

Michelle also talks about the trick to writing comedy songs that are actually funny, and shares the story of a beautiful moment in Edinburgh during one of her performances just after the passing of her brother when the comedy community rallied around her.
