Here we go again, number flippin' 5! Where does the time go? I'll tell you where; it goes into all the small things like taking the lids off pens, tying your shoelaces (unless you have brogues), almost sneezing, opening envelopes etc... but here for you, in the form of episode number 5, we have a slightly less mundade way for you to flit away the seconds of your lovely life.
This episode, we have a special guest; Chris Salem - friend, brother, son, pilot, muscle man, confidant - joins us to discuss music and crows, film quotes and pub coaster quizes. It's a messy fest of lols and songs, with which we'd love for you to join in!
This week we also launch our very first competition! Listen out to win a chance to choose a song for the next episode!

Aaaaand for this episode's Cheeky Video Treat we have a properly awesome video for Grizzly Bear's song "Two Weeks" which was the very first song we played on these here podcasts.
So yeah, basically I thought I'd take the liberty of posting up a flippin' song here for you! It's a re-doing (I think the kids call it remixing, or some shit like that) by Buck 65 of the Sufjan Stevens song Blood Pt.2 (played on episode one of the Podcast). It's been beaten up a little and a rapper chap called Serengeti has busted some rhymes over it. This re-doing features on the Dark Was The Night compilation (along with the original) which I must stress is chocked full of lovely songs.
So here, take it, I don't want it anymore, it's all yours to keep:
Buck 65 - Blood Pt. 2 (Feat. Sufjan Stevens and Serengeti)
Episode four, recorded under the ever present oppressiveness of a sweltering heat wave, is ready to be downloaded and played by your computer/iPod/other mp3 player/CD player (if you decide to burn it to a CD)/Cassette Walkman (if you are hardcore old school).
There are some gigantic beats and total nonsense words on this one, which we hope, as always, you enjoy at a level ranging between "a bit" and "enormously".

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?!

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.
