Show Notes
Def Lep Pod is back for it's sixth and final season, and we kick off with a review of Def Leppard's latest album, Drastic Symphonies. Neil, Paul and Curt have given the album a couple of months to bed in before discussing it, but now it's time to explore the drastic, the distinctive, the decorative and the divisive elements of this "greatest hits plus". Join in!
During season six, episodes will be released fortnightly on Mondays, with the odd extra episode thrown in between.
