I Am An Insane Child, perhaps? Or maybe you're just A Very Rude Person? Whoever you are, we hope you'll enjoy the first episode of 2018! After putting on our Official Internet Lawyer hats to dissect the recent legal drama with Lana Del Rey, we jump right back into our b-side series, kicking off the year with some Hail to the Thief-era tracks. Featured this week: a remix, an instrumental, and a song from the Com Lag EP.

Episode 43: The Amazing Sounds of WHAT?! Dec 18, 2017

After a lengthy series on the OK Computer era, we turn our attention to the unique and experimental b-side tracks from the Kid A and Amnesiac sessions. A little bit of knowledge about these tracks won't destroy you! Also part of our discussion this week: South American tour dates, Thom's upcoming solo shows (which have by now already come and gone), and Ed's future solo album.

Episode 42: I'm OK, How Are You? Nov 06, 2017

We finally say goodbye to the OK Computer era as we wrap up our discussion on the record's remaining b-sides and catch up on the latest Radiohead news, including Thom's upcoming solo tour. Coming up next, Kid A/Amnesiac bonus tracks! We hope you're ok too.

Episode 41: There Is No Significant Risk To Your Health. Sep 25, 2017

Show notes

After covering the new material included in the OKNOTOK reissue, we turn our attention to the OG b-sides of OK Computer, starting with Polyethylene, Pearly*, and A Reminder. Also discussed this week: the best tracks for introducing people to Radiohead without totally freaking them out. Not discussed this week: The new video for Lift (because Ben didn't watch it.)

Episode 40: OKNOTCASSETTE. Sep 11, 2017

Show notes

It’s the grand return of the podcast! We catch up on listener emails after our accidental summer vacation, and then dive right into the bonus material included on the OKNOTOK cassette tape - unreleased songs, demos, alternate takes, and miscellaneous bits and bobs. Plus: we speculate on what’s next for the band, including a rumored tour in South America next year.

Episode 39: OKNOTOK. Jun 26, 2017

Show notes

A very special episode this week, as we FINALLY get the opportunity to discuss the new/old tracks included on the 20th anniversary OK Computer reissue: Lift, I Promise, and Man of War! With this episode recorded fresh off their release, we talk about our own histories with these songs and how we feel about their officially recorded versions, alongside all the usual lyrical analysis and live performance talk you know and love. So lighten up, squirt!

Episode 38: Useless Rockers From England. Jun 07, 2017

Show notes

This week, we fade out again on The Bends, wrapping up Radiohead’s early 90s output with four final b-side tracks. Anne and Ben go head to head on How Can You Be Sure (of all songs) but fangirl together over India Rubber, Killer Cars is examined as another instance of Thom’s lyrical preoccupation with cars, and Maquiladora’s unusual connection to the band’s early history is revealed. Plus: the podcast’s one year anniversary, with our thanks to all of you!

Episode 37: What Rhymes With Molasses? May 15, 2017

Show notes

Your talk show hosts have returned for another marathon Radiohead chat sesh! We spend a good chunk of time this week catching up with emails and fan feedback, but we still manage to find some time for three tracks from the Street Spirit single; plus, the upcoming OK Computer 20th anniversary reissue, and revisiting A Moon Shaped Pool on its first birthday.

Episode 36: A Moon Shaped Lozenge? Apr 23, 2017

Show notes

Hot on the heels of a Coachella livestream riddled with technical difficulties, we finish up the My Iron Lung EP’s last three tracks on this week’s episode - the Larkin-inspired Lozenge of Love, Sonic Youth homage Permanent Daylight, and one-take wonder You Never Wash Up After Yourself. Next episode: even more b-sides from The Bends!
