Keep that desk area tidy! Because I’m speaking to Jason Williamson from Sleaford Mods on the podcast today and there is plenty to discuss; we talk about Jason’s burgeoning, and perhaps destructive, obsession with Depop during the 2020 lockdowns; about what America makes of the Nottingham duo; Perry Farrell – who I vow to get on the podcast at some point, mark my words – the dangers of unchecked anger; Blair’s Britain; why Rough Trade Records might be responsible for the misery prevalent in modern Britain (I’m joking, love you Rough Trade Records!); neoliberalism; therapy; why so many men of an age have an irrational fear of HIV – just imagine I said that last bit in the voice of John Hurt – and, this being my podcast, there’s also an extended bit about OCD.

Oh, and there's some stuff about the band’s excellent 12th record, UK GRIM, which is out now!
