Fresh off the back of recording the USA episode, the boys start as usual in the frequently strange and often disturbing location that is......Del's mind.

It’s time for another episode of your favourite podcast and it’s a good one! Jim, Del & Phil continue with the new single topic format and this week they tackle the mighty and extensive subject of Animals!

Everyone loves animals.

Everyone loves a good fact.

So what better way to kick things off than with some fun facts about our friends in the Animal Kingdom before the boys try and add another 10 tracks to the Spotify playlist with songs related to Animals. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6FkfVEebhyYCHzZlJNlKMC?si=3de95e44b6d041cd

The 3 amigos then each choose an Animal related film to nominate as the topic’s champion or ‘top dog’ if you will! 😁

As usual, the bulging bag of ‘Letters & Emails’ is torn open and delved into to finish this episode off. What a ride!

We’ll be back next week with some more bonus material to squash into your ear holes. Until then…stay safe out there Blankers!!!

Jim, Del & Phil return with their 4th series and....a brand new format! Having previously examined and analysed every year from 1980 through to 2009 they're changing tack and this time around each episode will be dedicated and focused on a single subject. The boys will still look at films & music but they'll all be linked back to the main topic in question (however tenuously).

The subject to kick off this new series is Adverts which allows Jim, Del & Phil to meander off down nostalgia avenue as they recall lots of their favourite ads from their younger days growing up as well as having a bit of a sing song whilst chatting about some of the catchy jingles that accompanied them. All the talk of adverts makes Del remember a story from when he auditioned to star in one when he was younger and the ensuing horror that came with the casting session.

The boys will also be selecting a single film linked (again, incredibly tenuously) back to the topic to put forward for debate and then the 3 of them select the best one.

After film, the boys then move on to tackle music linked to Adverts. The goal is to create a Top 10 tracks linked to each episode topic which will then be used to create another beautifully curated Spotify playlist for all you lovely Blankers to have a listen to here.....https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6FkfVEebhyYCHzZlJNlKMC?si=2079e873a4714442&pt=50823928ce749c7593dab21b12941218

Although the format is different in some ways, they'd never tinker with your 'Letters & Emails' section and this episode sees the mail bag ripped open once again as the 3 amigos answer your increasingly disturbing questions.

Hope you enjoy it!!

As a parting gift from this series, we're giving you a little BTS action as we leave the mics running whilst Phil visits the toilet for the umpteenth time and we catch Jim & Del having a comical discussion about Joe Cocker. It takes a strange turn (but then, doesn't everything on this podcast!?!)

We dive headlong into the great TV from 1988 and then a late breaking format change sees us dip into the bulging listener Letters & Emails bag for a little bonus at the end of the part.

3. Letters & Emails

After the films are put to bed, the lads move on and discuss the top 3 albums of 1987 where, this time at least, they are all in agreement that this was one of the better years in the decade for music. However, Phil has a difficult decision to make with his top 3....Erm, Mer, REM! The top 10 best selling singles are then counted down and we are delighted to hear the boys' vocal talents really shine through as they introduce the world to the newest male harmony trio - the 3Gees!!

No episode would be complete without a dip into the Letters & Emails where, once again, you lot have excelled yourselves with some very interesting questions.

Stay safe Blankers and enjoy the show.

Del starts by giving Jim & Phil a variety of strange options to talk about from his past couple of week's of adulting. We learn about him posting cheese to his mum and a local man undertaking an odd activity in the street.

The news from 1987 is then dissected followed by another classic game of Jim vs Phil vs Del.

The first half of the episode is then rounded off with a thorough look back at the TV of the year - once again we were spoilt for choice with some absolute classic shows and some wonderful theme tunes to boot!

Their musical choices from 1986 were very disparate though as the albums ranked 3, 2 & 1 all differ slightly as the music of the decade continues to divide the boys opinions.

As usual, the episode finishes off with some listener 'Letters & Emails' where a question from a Blanker starts an intriguing conversation involving the one and only, Mr Noel Edmonds....

The news from 1986 was pretty hefty this time around (although some enormous international stories were almost forgotten - luckily our ace scoop reporter, Phil 'In The Blanks' Reynolds, was there to rectify the situation). In sports news, it seems that the infamous 'Hand of God' moment from the Mexico World Cup still seems to badly affect the boys - even 37 years on!

In a surprise twist to the show that no-one saw coming, Del goes a bit rogue and segues into a story from his past of when he propositioned a homeless person...only to be flat out rejected!!

Part 1 is then neatly wrapped up with a chat about the belting TV of 1986 and there's some cracking theme tunes to boot.

Starting with a weighty topic, Phil is placed under the spotlight to test his knowledge of potatoes. Then, it’s the news from 1985 that’s placed under the microscope before Del shares his ‘Weird News’ and the boys have another cracking game of ‘Jim vs Phil vs Del’ which throws up some shocking answers! This is followed by an in depth look at what was big in TV that year - with some funny stories to run alongside them.

Heads up - it’s another episode that gets split into 2 parts due to the running length so we’ll be back next week with Part 2 featuring films, music and your 'Letters & Emails'.

Onwards they go towards the wonderful world of 80s TV programmes where it becomes apparent that Phil still hasn't managed to get to grips with selecting the right programmes for the right year. Oh Phil!!

Then it's business as usual as they get down to it and tackle the news of 1983 along with Jim vs Phil in the Weird Records segment. They take a deep dive into the TV of the year but Phil's motored ahead by accident and gives us a sneeky peak at some from 1984 having researched the wrong year!!

She also jumped headlong into the full Not Faulty oddness as she became the first person to take our new 80s Mystery Road Trip.

Yes, that's right, the boys have gone all serious this episode (not really) and pretend to know their stuff when it comes to the political world.

Andrew shares with us how he started out on this path, what it’s really like in local politics and how it feels to make a difference.

He tells us all about the process and associated difficulties of making the film as well as preparing for impending fatherhood.

We also take the time to strand Chris over on ‘Desert Island Dicks’ and he tells us about his favourite films and albums of the 2000s as well as taking on the fiendishly tricky ‘John Cazale Challenge’.

It’s another great episode!

Kate discusses the many varied things that currently occupy her time - from her solo work and her band through to her passion project "The Nightingale Sessions".

We maroon Kate on ‘Desert Island Dicks’ and during her answers she reveals such diversity as a meeting with Shed Seven as well as a previously unrealised love for films starring long haired lead actors on horseback!

Kate also plays not two, but three songs for us. Two of her own gems along with a fabulous cover of a Portishead hit.

You can support Kate and The Nightingale Sessions project by purchasing tickets for the next gig on 8th March by hitting the link below…
