Car went kaput last night so I’m on the bus for the first time in 2 years…don’t worry lads, it’s still that wonderfully heady mix of Lynx body spray and BO that we love so much!!

Went on a march against a waste incinerator being built on our little island. foundsoundsaudio.substack.com/p/stop-portl...

Got 3 more days of seasonal visits and then I’ll have a little time to think about radio nonsense! Which will be nice!

Well after a wonderful week in Budapest we’re back down to earth with a bang…and a trip to IKEA! Feels like penance for having fun.

Field recorder is coming out in the New Year. Social Media may well be going away again! www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Back from travels and the struggle is real

D Generation X still keeping it alive in Budapest

Early morning Christmas vibes from the Hoodoo Jukebox…cheers Paulo! www.mixcloud.com/PaulosHoodoo...

Christmas with the Communists???

Wife and children gone skating so I have a morning in Budapest to wander…ALONE!!!

Boxing Day lunch at the swankiest vegan joint in Budapest booked. Might have the cabbage stew …. That’s actually on the menu and looks lovely and not a stereotypical eastern bloc gag.

TFG has the keys while I’m on a European Christmas Vacation….i have no idea what’s on it, I’m deep in Mulled Wine and Stuffed Cabbage. Enjoy!!!

Budapest in lights

Love this city!!

Yet Another Christmas Mixtape…featuring joyful seasonal tunesmiths from the hit parade such as Elliot Smith, Sinead O’Connor and Josiah and the Bonnevilles You won’t find this on NOW! That’s What I Call Christmas. www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

If I can’t get something recorded tonight it’ll be sad and lonely Christmas mixtape for you next week…. If I can find 12 minutes then it’ll be a sad and lonely radio show. Nothing says Xmas like Elliott Smith, Sinead O’Connor and LCD Soundsystem does it!

5 days till Budapest baby!!

Reindeers and tinsel and other such sparkly nonsense… www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

Sweet Baby Jesus this one’s loud!!! But also has one of my favourite songs of all time slipped in like a chaste kiss on the cheek in the middle of an orgy…or something??? Anyway…it’s That Fking Radio Show from @totalcultzone.bsky.social www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

New show from TFG tomorrow…may be the last show of the year… Hoping for something festive next week but the car got sketchy on the way back from Hartlepools last night and that’s sure to be a massive time suck! Not here for Christmas week…which will be awesome! Just need to get to the airport!

Taking the boy to interviews at Art Schools is making me wish I did things differently 30 years ago. Not regretting things but thinking about a more colourful route to here

Worked all day. Drove 8 hours to Hartlepool. Got here at midnight. Noisy twats in hallway at 4am. No I didn’t go back to sleep.

Putting together my Christmas playlist….its got Sinead O’Connor and Elliott Smith on it so that’s the vibe down here!

It’s the Samuel Jones Christmas Special…including his SIXTH annual Christmas Single “When We Get Up North” ….which I think is about Lapland and not Oldham but who really can tell! www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

I love this little island

I tried to make a radio show about environmental protest songs and I got really sad really quickly so here's the songs I put together in a handy mixtape Featuring... Bad Religion, Childish Gambino and Bill Shatner but not REM or Joni Mitchell because that would be hack! tinyurl.com/radiofreepor...

It’s a “nu-show” from @totalcultzone.bsky.social featuring all/some of your “nu-metal” favourites so you can greet the day like it’s sometime between 1997 and 2001…you know, when the world made more sense and your knees didn’t hurt! www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

Here’s a link to last weeks show…TFG has a show in the morning and I’m working on a “look at the twats congratulating themselves on achieving fuck all at COP30 last week” show which has become a bit of a downer believe it or not! Anyway…some good tunes on this www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

I’m just a bumpkin that points at traffic but here’s a radio show full of songs about big metropolitan cities and Northern industrial towns. I’ve even been to 3 of them!!! www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor... #mixcloud #radio

Haven’t recorded the main show yet because of neighbourly noisy shenanigans but hopefully tonight In the meantime there’s 2 new shows from guests this week and the feed is generally filling up with some wonderful tomfoolery and great tunes www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

Don’t normally buy into the whole hall of fame nonsense but OutKast being inducted is very cool and well deserved

Made a new cover for the breakfast show…lazy arse here reused the old one and algorithms got butt hurt…show remains the same. Play the game I guess. Anyway…check out @totalcultzone.bsky.social playing breakfast show host www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

Friday Night Mixtape on a Saturday Morning??? I mean it’s still Friday somewhere isn’t it? www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

In this week's show .... Songs from big names like NIrvana and The Cure alongside Hurray for the Riff Raff and Curtis Harding. There may even be a little Kanye sprinkled in there too...yes, I too miss the old Kanye. #Mixcloud www.mixcloud.com/radiofreepor...

This an old but fun read… Like I’ve said 1000 times before…you can keep your Stone Roses and Madchester lot! I’ll stick to Stourbridge and Ned’s Atomic Dustbin!!! www.theguardian.com/music/2018/m...

Actually got the guitar out tonight for the first time in months…it’s ok, I still know the 3 chords
