Gig Pigs for the girls! Series 4 lurches us closer to husband and wifecast as the newly Kealyed Mhairi Beveridge returns, for a BBC bitesize level discussion of the H.O.T.T.est new pop star in the world, and some uncomfortable existential inquiries for King Gigzard, the Pigzard Wizard and their new GP tees.

He’s an astronomical, fan of bowling balls, so welcome in Felix White, the shirt-shredding, pepper-grinding, review-devouring guitarist of first the Maccabees and now 86TVs, who pigs as hard as he gigs and has plenty kind words to say about liking the rock music of Sea Power, Cumbria’s finest via Tunbridge Wells, the Islington Assembly Hall and the (Irish it turns out) Isle of Aran. We never wanted his tales to end: a precious time discussing the delicate art of the full album play (our third of the series!) and whether 2007 really was a pitch black heaven: soon we’re acting like he’s our best friend. He looked like he looked like he was enjoying himself, but will he remember us?

We're the wrong kind of people, why'd you listen to us? Because we've achieved our Desire! Desire! and (so nearly) watched Everything Everything, the most interesting and consistent band of their generation, alongside their biggest fan, and Alex's birthday twin, Lolly Adefope (Saltburn, Ghosts, @elevenish). A joyous hour of pig climbs, pig falls, and pink piggies with their hands on their ears: she makes the foolish grin, we flap around in pigskin, and for just one pod, one pod we feel, like we might be on the right path, the path that takes us home. It's a dream we're in with her! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Is he free, can he gig, is he promised to the pig? An apologetic pleasure to speak easy with Johnny JR about the Planet of Sound (if not Vision) that was Pixies at the Forum: bearded villains, corporate restructuring and where his mind's at re: gig etiquette and encore requirements.
