In this special hundredth show Suzanne Vega and I jump on a Zoom call to discuss the bizarre journey we've been on since I first sent her the demo of Acid Reign's version of Blood Makes Noise. We also discuss her entire career from starting out at open mic shows, through the 80's with huge tours and how things have changed, how they look now and of course working with Acid Reign.
The usual news features etc follow on after the interview.

In this episode I get to find out all about Cryptosis with bassist Frank. We discuss their earlier incarnation as Distillator, what made them make the change and the brilliant new album Bionic Swarm.
Then I have a catch up with my old mate Michael Gilbert of Flotsam & Jetsam. In a wide raging chat we talk about all sorts including the status of their new album, a change of bass player, their most famous change of bass player from back in the day and a lot more.
Added to which there is the expected mix of news, views and opinions along with an apology for Simon Wright, Eurovision history and the big four as school children.

In this episode I am interviewed for the Marvins World Comedy Podcast about comedy, music and podcasting. I really enjoyed doing this and talking about comedy as I rarely get the chance and I've been doing it for 26 years. Hopefully you will find this interesting and don't think I'm an arrogant bastard for putting this in your player!
