  • Episode 11 - A Pocket Calculator You Can Write Rude Words On
    May 19 2026

    Greetings music fans! Speaking of which, who ever said bands need to be consistent with their members?

    Today, Chris and David are celebrating the music of bands that still exist (at time of writing), but with only 1 original member left. There's actually more of them than you might think! Get ready to jam out with AC/DC, Big Country, Kraftwerk and Evanescence alongside many more!

    As far as we're concerned, the music is what matters most and there's plenty of it to celebrate!
