What Greg’s been listening to
Striped: The Story Of The White Stripes

The low-down: It’s going for a decade since The White Stripes called it stops “for an array of reasons, but mostly to conserve that is beautiful and special in regards to the group ”. Their 13-year presence was as smart as it was comparatively brief; this first show in Jack White’s Third Man Records appeared in on the early days.

Music journalist Sean Cannon, who was close to the duo, is the host that is time-traveling. Everything starts out with some comprehensive Detroit music background, along with a youthful JW practising in his attic. The contributors are remarkable — members of The MC5, Pavement and a half Motor City’s early-Millennium glitterati — along with the audio ’s clearly fantastic. The large miss? Well, anything fresh from the band. “They’t already said their piece,” clarifies Cannon acknowledging their absence. Although that’s a pity as opposed to a deterrent. Get stuck into, Jack ‘& bull rsquo; Meg lovers.

Dear Joan & Jericha  

The low-down: Yes! The podcast universe’s most hilarious, agony aunts that are filthy-minded come back.

They put using a string of problems, almost all them involving a excretion or revolting people sex problems; about & ldquo; assisting & rdquo. For the time, rsquo & there;s plenty of piss taking going on; whether this ’s play on straight-faced advice dished out with girls ’s novels or the series equivalent that is modern.

It ’s detailed, and almost really funny. Just take this snippet from episode one for example: “Dear Joan and Jericha, once intercourse my husband has chosen to whacking my face with his penis and I don’t understand how to tell him I don’t enjoy it. I’m 72… Yours, Brenda Sanderson — Sherborne. ”

The Road Taken

The low-down: Ahhh, the planet of a touring musician, it’s Tesla tour buses and dressing rooms filled with as many posh pot crisps since you can eat, correct? Not so, apparently.

The set — who is a little… stilted? — are currently doing that through chats with their “idols, peers and competitions & rdquo;.

That means you get epic Patrick Carney in the Black Keys banging on about not devoting (smoking a tube during record ) and Winston Marshall out of Mumford & Sons talking the collaborative endeavor he battled with Austrian techno ensemble HVOB (who knew?) . If you wish to have under the bonnet to speak – of touring have a pay check. Or do ’t, should you prefer to stay in stupid excitement of imagining BTS are escorted between gigs at a plane using their faces on it.

The Saucer Life 

Recommended with: @Clubdroda on Twitter
