Show Notes
2025 was the best year of my life and it started in glorious fashion with Chris Arnold as a the first ever guest on the show.
So what better way to kick off 2026, then by going full circle and welcoming back Mr Beatles Dub Club himself, it's Chris Arnold!!!!
Chris's first appearance is still the most listened to episode to date and somehow, for some reason we did the unthinkable and managed to literally reach the top of Spotify's Music Podcast Chart.
Mad!
In this episode Chris and I get on the cans to discuss subcultures in suburbia, second hand smoke at Brixton Academy and kidnapping rock royalty.
We also talk a little about NOFX's Punk in Drublic.
Best enjoyed while graffitiing a school desk.
Enjoy!

"The very first “post-surf” band. This London four-piece (extended to five on stage) was formed in 2021 when Connie came to London from France and met Archie (bass) from Worcester and Steve (guitar) from York. They blended their influences so seamlessly that they had to invent an actual genre to describe their sound. “Post-surf” is a pun to the “post-punk” dominion over the London scene of the past decade, alluding to the twist operated by these boys: post-modern themes in their lyrics and reflections on the chaos of modern life, but the warm and soothing sun of 60s California on the surface, embodied by their trademark four-part harmonies, surf guitars, and inexplicably strange chords. Their first album, a series of haunting ballads expunged in an effort to shave down their growing catalog, was released in 2025. “Poorly Planned Missions… Executed Worse” features ten tracks dripping with the band’s sonic identity and commitment to writing a song that sounds like it could never be written twice. Having opened for acts like The Big Pink and The Molotovs, they are gearing up for the release of the much louder follow-up to their debut, a cinematic whirlpool of indie bangers, introduced by their brand new single ‘Neverknows’.”
