  4. Episode 6: Violence Insane In A Beautiful World

    Show notes

    Don't adjust your sets! Stuart and James bring you Episode 6 before Episode 5 has even aired... the reason being, they recorded a special podcast just 24 hours after the release of Roger Taylor's brand new album to give their thoughts on his first new music for five years. Was it worth the wait?
