Celebrity mash-ups! An afternoon with Billy Joel, Ivanka Trump, Bono, Geldof and Rupert Murdoch

Welcome to this week’s pod in which various white-hot topics are brought in for questioning, among them …

… Whatever happened to Dando Shaft?

… Alastair Sim, Terry-Thomas and flowsy saxophones in The Belles of St Trinian’s

… Does it matter if music-making acts are fictitious or that rappers are artificial and produced by computer graphics and AI?

… how many people were in Keith Tippett’s Centipede (the clue’s in the name)?

… Titus Groan and Demon Fuzz

… is there anything the lily-livered music business is prepared to defend?

… puddings delivered by Deliveroo

… Jann Wenner and the caviar spoons

… the ‘greening’ of Reading Festival

… and what kind of sane world allows pop music at hotel breakfasts?
