  1. Hi Jason,

    Really like the Neil Innes show – I didn’t realise he was so well connected!! Love the mix into Beggin’

    A bit dissapointed about no raggy dolls – but can’t have everything 😉

    Me.

  2. Hello,

    I like your shows. It’s hard to find sources that do this genre so well.

    When are you going to do The Strange Brew Live? Where you broadcast live with bands playing live stuff – maybe one day.

    P.S you got any Amazing Friendly Apple?
