    S4 EP22: Open Air St Gallen 2008
    2025/04/16
    "Out of the water! I can hear the Fratellis coming on!" Another trip in the toe-curling time-machine to a criminally ignored Swiss music festival from the late noughties, where Alex dexterously unlocks Ivo's phone and his past to torture him with a spec review that could have been published in the NME if it was good enough, which we know of course it may not be. Next week: Alex's review of the European Youth Parliament! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    2025/04/10
    The Thursday Mercury Club is in retrograde mode this week, as the godfather of social media knockout formats and the suedebrother of the award’s second ever winners joins us to discuss chocolate, confetti cannons, and what really is the best British album of the perfectly divisible 1992-2023 era.

    You want ANOTHER pod about the Wild God? We’ll give you one.

For this week's pig tale, have a shower and put on a blue blazer / beloved white shirt, then dive into Alex and Ivo discussing 2013's insightful The National tour documentary / hilarious spinal tap-esque mockumentary / heart-warming examination of fraternal dynamics / chronicle of creative doubt "Mistaken For Strangers".

    S4 EP18: Yardpigs For Failure
    2025/03/20
    Who is the Tom Skinner of Gig Pigs? What is a homunculus? And what did Alex’s mum actually say at his 18th? All these questions and more answered in a thrillingly thinly disguised promo for Ivo’s book (May 22), in an episode that we thought would be out in January, and now features some very out of date Radiohead speculation.

    2025/03/13
    It's new world now, don't discriminate! Everyone is equally a gigger and a pig! Ivo missed 100% of this Bodega show but it’s Alex missing the final 10% that tees up one of the great Gig Etiquette Podcasts of our times, as culture connoisseur and post office nemesis Garrett Millerick lays down some brutal laws about coats, crowds and mistimed liquids. A (Jack in) titanic episode even before we get to the Stewart Lee impression and Marilyn Manson anecdote. Dedicated to the dedicated! Learn more about your ad choices.

    S4 EP15: A Complete Unknown with Nish Kumar
    2025/02/27
    There’s a podcast about Bob Dylan released now called Gig Pigs (what a title!). Nish Kumar is starring in the guest role. Nish is a brilliant podcaster so we were sure he’d be completely believable about Bob. Or a younger Bob. Or some other Bob. The podcast was recorded after the Pigs and Nish watched A Complete Unknown – a nailed on Oscar winner that came out in 2025. It’s a fantastic retelling of events from the early ‘60s that led up to the fiasco at Newport. After you’ve listened to the podcast give it a review! Learn more about your ad choices.
