I’m really proud of tonight’s New Music Show. Earlier this week Fyfe Dangerfield let me into his studio to discuss his project ‘The Stream’. He made me a ginger drink and I hit record on 90 minutes of chat. You can hear what’s become a documentary tonight on Vectis Radio from 7pm! vectisradio.com

Enjoyable Sprint Race! How to stay at home and watch the qualifyi— ah crap I bought a cinema ticket for Roofman.

Gone full-kit wanker to the cinema

What are they even booing him for???

Big milestone day at work:

Saw We Are Scientists last night in London. Congrats on the £250 from Waitrose. Oh and I met Dom from Muse in the queue, which I’m sure I’ll never mention again for the rest of my life

Shuffle has offered me Want You Bad by The Offspring. I accept.

When I was about 8 or 9 I kept getting my mum to rent Dante’s Peak on VHS. Watching it again tonight for the first time since makes me wonder why.

Pleasant bit of Idlewild last night.

Taylor Swift has rescued par from a double bogey five tracks in. Perfectly fine album thereafter. The Weezer - Beverly Hills interpolation is bizarre.

Very much enjoying the new Nova Twins album, as well as new CMAT and Coach Party. Also from the archives: All or Nothing by The Subways, Leisure Seizure by Tom Vek and Cradle to the Grave by Squeeze.

Isle of Wight Facebook comment of the day.

Me at 12: [joyous because my email got read out by Dermot O’Leary on Big Brother’s Little Brother] Me at 34:

The BBC's weather game is hilarious. You put in the nearest town to you (for example, Milton Keynes) and every single day without fail it goes "that's the coldest place on our list!"

I look forward to having to go a layer deeper to find out match reports against Hemel Hempstead on the BBC Sport page next season.

Saw James Acaster in a room of 80 people tonight. Excellent, until it went quite wildly wrong. Then it was excellent again but unintentionally so.

Yeah let’s not do that though

Oh that’s rough for Dunne… #F2

Edinburgh. *Idlewild plays*

Self Esteem not on for the three-peat (Album of the Year 2019, 2021) but with every listen A Complicated Woman gets stronger. Very enjoyable.

"If you die in the game, you die in real life" is actually true for an awful lot of things, like snooker and backgammon

Happy to announce what sort of processing @3legs4wheels.com listeners will be getting from my line in this week’s podcast. If you’re not into my big bottom, can I tempt you with an aural exciter?

Every so often a friend will ask me to DJ a wedding or MC the proceedings because I "do radio" and they assume I'll be Greg James. Always fine, they're all lovely close friends. Today I've been asked to host a Centre of Excellence meeting at work. I'm not a central character, why me? "Well..."

Girl! I wanna take you to the…

Anniversary today. We’ve gone to Tintagel.

I’ve watched a lot of Nathan Fielder things in recent months but The Claw of Shame may be the best one. Just a brilliant send up of David Blaine etc.

It’s a golden age for meal deals, people.

Ozzy, in the underworld, screaming at the ferryman: Charon! Charon! news.sky.com/story/ozzy-o...

Crash! Bang! Wallop! What an Isle of Wight Festival.

For anyone listening to this morning’s @vectisradio.bsky.social breakfast show: this is the soup

Played my first game in the London Charity Softball league tonight. No runs, two drops and a massive scuff down my thigh from one embarrassing fall. Ouch.

I’ve been in California 2 weeks. I’m 6’1”, 15st 11lb. I’m the fattest person here by four stone.

Fort Victoria Aquariu— no, wait, Monterey Bay.

Been in LA a few days. Here’s some highlights.

Popes are chosen by God, making them the ultimate Dei hire

Conclave’s a good film, it’s on Amazon. Just saying.

Ooh, yes

Way to shame me.

With respect, Upwords, I disagree.

Watched Black Mirror: The National Anthem. Incredible nearly 15 years on. Still to be convinced there is a better hour of event TV I’ve ever seen.

Adventuring in Berlin (Part 1) on the @vectisradio.bsky.social New Music Podcast tonight from 6. Nonsense and guff, accompanied by tracks from The National, Patrick Wolf, Divorce and more. The currywurst was delicious.

Berlin: closed on Sundays. And wet. Damnit.

We’re a fickle people, humans. We stroll around life acknowledging that we all publicly agree on the greatest song of all time (All My Friends by LCD Soundsystem) but also all quietly, knowingly agree that it’s something else entirely (Seasons (Waiting on You) by Future Islands).
