Pet Shop Boys bootleggers have made a terrible mistake.

Who remembers watching The Gonks From Gonkville?

The belt up for grabs at 9pm. But is anyone up to the challenge of Macho Ben Randy Bastard? And where do Simon Bates, Chas N Dave, Prince, a time traveller and the @poundshopboys.bsky.social fit in with it all? Join us live at 9pm on www.twitch.tv/babel_17 to find out.

I'm on the ground witnessing a great moment

I had to turn the brightness down on my telephonic device, so dazzling those shirts are.

The Pound Shop Boys have realised they've not serviced the world with their pop music lately, so had a day out in Wigan to discuss some new releases. @philfletcher.bsky.social @ricardoautobahn.co.uk

The Pound Shop Boys are in attendance at @sparksofficial.bsky.social

New! Ricardo Autobahn (@ricardoautobahn.co.uk) joins me for a chat about The Wizard Of Speed And Time, The Big Bus, Ed Starink, Chimera, Roadmaker, Talkin' 'Bout Your Generation, Blackgang Chine, the final season of The Dukes Of Hazzard and more... timworthington.org/2025/06/05/l...

Tomorrow my new clanky ambient album Music For Bus Stations comes out, and it's a Spotify-busting 40 minute "piece". Happily on Bandcamp you can get some short excerpts for ease of listening as well. spray.bandcamp.com/album/music-... @electronicsound.bsky.social @theelectricityclub.bsky.social

One week to go until Music For Bus Stations hits all the major streaming platforms, but if you want to download it you can pre-order from Bandcamp. Don't feel obliged though. spray.bandcamp.com/album/music-...

New music from Spray! Lovable Lancashire scamps @spraypopmusic.com give a selection of their back catalogue a glow-up on reSPRAY Vol. 1, the first in a new series of EPs via @analoguetrash.com ! wearecult.rocks/new-music-fr...

It's happening people! The Pound Shop Boys are coming to the Academy!

Our episode with Simpsons showrunner, writer and executive producer Al Jean is out this week. Following our chat with Mike Reiss, Al talks about his time on ALF, working on Sledge Hammer and Garry Shandling's Show, and how comedy nearly became extinct in the early 80s. Linktr.ee/ALFsplaining

The pilot episode of The Gonks Of Gonkville

To commemorate the advent of longer videos on BlueSky, here's a new mix of an old classic

It's been a great day on ALFsplaining, as our special episode chatting to Mike Reiss about his time on ALF went live. Visit linktr.ee/ALFsplaining for all the fun - new facts, fabulous insider info and plenty of laughs.

Cheers to all our tiny friends who live in our phones from the @poundshopboys.bsky.social
