Thereās an ad I keep hearing on podcasts where a woman is getting stressed out making Christmas dinner, and her teenage son says āMum, I, er, made you a playlist on Amazon Music.ā God, it is so unintentionally bleak. The whole interaction is so cold and joyless. Maybe itās just poor acting, I dunno.

Simon photo bash I did for a Spotify playlist cover. Been wanting to try photo bashing for a long time, much different than what I usually do but I had so much fun and am super proud of this one. Based on Simon in Skagboys by

I really enjoyed this honest insight into Irvine Welsh the person and his writing. Left me with the urge to catch-up with the novels Iāve not read yet and revisit those I have.

New album by Corserine is out today on Out yer Box, the sister label to Jack Said What. Channeling the spirit of yacht rock, 80s synth pop and the airy vibe of French touch, it's an affecting musical listening experience.

Thameslink -since 8.00am- have been announcing a myriad of delays and cancellations due to a passenger on an earlier train causing a disturbance. Iām intrigued as to how someone can cause such chaos so early in the morning. Is the passenger some super villain from the Marvel Universe?
