This week's show featured faves from Mysticwood & Mezcal, Benefits, Saint Etienne, Munk & Kapote, Daniel Monaco Band and what I think was a well-timed Primal Scream critique of US imperialism - pretty much airing at the same time ex-The Wire host Chlöe Swarbrick was calling out the government's spineless approach to the genocide we see happening in Gaza every damn day.
Featuring That's The Spirit with Peter Lineham and a bunch of epic tunes courtesy of Crawley. Later, General Manager Tom makes a guest appearance for a song request.
