MLPP212 - Spike Slawson
Spike Slawson, enigmatic frontman of Spike & The Gimme Gimmes has hauled himself into MLPP Towers this week ahead of their UK tour next month.
The lad likes a chat, so we cover a lot: The name change, getting booed at bar mitzvahs, Christmas songs, getting booed at baseball games, Spike's last live music experience as a punter, some scary UK cities, and getting booed at a Quinceañera.
Tom's joined by guest co-host Danny Barrett, we get a global exclusive sneaky peeky at a track from the upcoming Shackleford album (coming on Brassneck Records in 2026), and we have an exciting new culture correspondent to introduce you to!
Music is from: TSOL, Shackleford (WORLD EXCLUSIVE), Pete Bentham and The Dinner Ladies, Ordinary Boys and SkinHead.
