Speaking Volumez Podcast EP3

Bonjour!

Two weeks goes quickly, right? Here we are rolling up to your computer doorstep with episode three cradled in our arms already. This episode wanders through an ecclectic mix of 10 new songs which we hope you'll enjoy. Aside from the musical delights, we also have the usual chitter-chatterings; this week we cover some diverse topics which range from talk of painting cats' heads illuminous orange, to the moment when Bubble smashed his leg into a chair on Big Brother 2. Also, I accidentally use a Little Britian catchphrase and Paul has a mini-meltdown. Mental. There is also the perennial question to ask... who will be crowned this weeks "How Old is it Fella?" champion?!

All you have to do to be listening within seconds is CLICK HERE (remember you can right click and select "Save Link As" to save it to your computer) or go and fetch it from iTunes by clicking RIGHT HERE.

A Wonderful Treat!

I've a wonderful little treat for you. You know that old band, The Beatles? Well aside from producing a plethora of amazing songs they also did a few films; the first of which was called A Hard Day's Night (like the song!) and I've found the film in it's entirety on dat fing called da youtube.

It's a genuinely charming and funny film which I hope you'll enjoy. It's in 9 parts on youtube and I've only posted up the first on here but the others are easy to find.

A couple of things to look out for:

1) George Harrison stacking hard in the first scene and John Lennon cracking up.
2) Ringo Starr's weird laugh at about 4 Minutes 20 Seconds.
