Transcribe →Episode 98: The Underrated Beatles
Aug 7, 202200:46:01Tap to summarizeA joke for Lord Ben: How many Beatles does it take to change a lightbulb? Just one (preferably Paul) holding the lightbulb still while the universe spins around him. The Lords examine Lord Ben’s hypothefact that The Beatles get no respect.
Transcribe →Episode 97: Ladies’ Night!
Jul 31, 202200:43:05Tap to summarizeA decade plus after #MeToo four men discuss fave females, just as we realise gender is an outdated concept. Isn't it ironic? Nah, it a riot (grrrl). Among others, Miss Sharon Jones brings the soul, Siouxsie Sioux the stranger things, and Martha Wainwright reminds us all to treat our daughters with some serious respect!
Transcribe →Episode 96: Bizarro World – Pavement
Jul 24, 202200:33:23Tap to summarizeIn an unusual turn of events, Lord Kev jauntily turns his gaze away from the pavement while the other Lords schlep along it instead. They can’t quite come to grips with the bent bottle cap that is Stephen Malkmus’ voice but goodness knows they try.

Feb 20, 202200:22:14Tap to summarizeLord Kev's course concludes with his personal top tracks from the last 25 years and 250 albums by the esoteric post-punk band famously described as "always different, always the same".

Dec 19, 202101:50:30Tap to summarizeIt's the most wonderful time of the year, dear listeners!

As usual, we have the traditional LP giveaways, the obligatory random bickering and musical reviews of the year. Also, as you've been so good, a special treat: exclusive clips from the new Elektro Pinkler documentary, Hark the Neon Androids Sing. We ho-ho-hope you love it! Merry Xmas!
Transcribe →Episode 95: Bizarro World - Mega Mix
Dec 5, 202100:43:50Tap to summarizeIn a normal episode of Bizarro World, there’s one band, with 3 for it and 1 against. In a normal episode.Enter: Lord Al. He takes a leaf out of Oprah’s book, hooting excitedly and jabbing his finger at the other lords: You get a band! You get a band! You get a band!
Transcribe →Episode 94: Debunk The Punk
Nov 28, 202100:45:15Tap to summarizeLord Ben drops another of his famed musical truth bombs claiming "There was only ever one punk band". The other lords grab their gas masks and take cover, scrambling for shreds of reason in a world gone mad. When the smoke clears and the first white dove flies free, who will be left standing to plant their flag, claiming the new reality as their own?
Transcribe →Episode 93: Good Onya, Genre #2
Nov 21, 202100:41:10Tap to summarizeThe Lords are back to do a few more doughies in the Oz Music carpark. There are some heavyweights in this collection and the Lords ponder what makes an act truly Aussie: is it if you’re born here, move here, or just if you wear a pair of Stubbies now and then?
Transcribe →Episode 92: Cut It Out - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
Nov 14, 202101:11:41Tap to summarizeGod bless little Billy and his Smashing Pumpkins. And his 'mellon collie' and his collie's infinite endless sadness. The lords break up this 90s classic into a leaner meaner version.
