Well, well well – here we are again. The one time of the year when all the cheesy shit assails your ears and with “Whamageddon” now a very real threat (especially as it’s finally reached Number 1 after all these years FFS !!), you need to bend your lugholes to this week’s show where we explore the Proggy side of Christmas on so many levels, but still manage to squeeze in a few BRAND NEW tunes. It’s been a MAMMOTH task putting this year’s show together, so we truly and honestly hope you can join us to celebrate this very special time of year, helped along with the wit of Pete Jones (Tiger Moth Tales), you are guaranteed a few giggles along the way as well as a few surprises. Have an outstanding Christmas guys and we’ll catch you next week for PART ONE of our 2023 look-back – Loves ya, Steve & Lou xx
