00:00 Hello
2:57 Ambulance volunteer & Father’s was a mine-sweeping nightmare
backing track “Restless” kindly provided by Highest Praise Productions.
5:26 “Lucy At The Gym” by my new favourite Jill Sobule. You might have heard her collaboration with some other ladies against net netrality in the song “God Save The Internet“. She’s not quite purely independent as she’s had a hit in the past and had albums out with mainstream record companies. But I’d never heard of her, and really liked her tunes. Her tunes I feature are indie. Check her out on iTunes to sample/buy her great music. I really like her lyrics and poetic, yet sad, while funny turns of phrases.
9:10 Saying goodbye to her Mum
11:29 Jill Sobule “Rock Me to Sleep”
just a nice song
13:43 Her laugh is amazing, even though she’s been through a lot
18:52 No comedy this time, but a great (more upbeat) song from Derek Clegg, “Dormant & Grey”
22:00 Explaining how I’m hoping to change the show to keep it going for its’ second year.
Bonus for website visitors only:
I heard a theme song from a TV show I haven’t thought of for years and thought about doing a little contest to see who could name some of these famous tunes (but I’ve not had responses from my previous audio contests, so email me or put a comment here if you want me to do it on the next show).

Doug is my nextdoor neighbour. My wife and I enjoy a good rapport with him. We exchange pleasantries across the fence and keep an eye on each other’s house when on holiday. When (not if) my kids are playing football in the backyard, and their ball goes over the fence, he’s happy for them to climb over and get it. That sort of thing.
This was the first time I’d ever heard about him being captured by the
Germans in "the War".
behind the scenes stuff here
Music-wise, I’ve got Tara Leigh Cobble providing some great “southern rock”. Her website and it’s forums are great way to get a feel for the artist behind the music. Check it out and say "hi" to her there. I did and got a reply from her pretty quickly—-cool!
Suzie from Note For a Child is a fellow Cambridge resident who used to work as a medical doctor. You can hear clips of her and Daniel’s music on their website, and find out about their gigs and album. They’ve got a great sound.
