An episode that is unlike any other WIM have done and for an album like this, totally works. WIM album club continues to be a monthly highlight
This month, on the WIM Album Club, we examine A Little Man and a House and the Whole World Window by Cardiacs. Full episode available now, exclusively on our Patreon!

I loved Zeppelin's music in high school and college, and it's so refreshing to hear a measured, music-first take on them as (deeply, deeply flawed) human beings. Other biographers tend to treat them as idols or utter villains. If you haven't heard A History Of Rock Music In 500 Songs, you should.
The whole “outfit” talk was great, Sean Dyche basically described every side as an outfit

This in an Athletic article today has me scratching my head. Yes Bayindir was powerless to stop the actual header, but he was also responsible for the header happening in the first place?

And ironically had he been more powerful, the situation would have been avoided

Imagine scoring a goal THIS good and not even getting the satisfaction of the ball so much as touching the net 😭😭😭
On repeat for the rest of the night 🔁
I’ve always been a fan but haven’t kept up to date with it for a very long time. I believe though there are times when they’ve admitted they’ve gotten things wrong (Man Bear Pig)
I wonder how far “I saw Gazza play football in the flesh” will get me

ICYMI: This week we talked about Arctic Monkeys in 2006. An EP, a single, their tours, and a lineup change! Listen now (if you want)!
It’s on now, I’m guessing they meant 2pm not 5pm

My favourite one like this is Don Henley getting Brian to autograph a copy of Pet Sounds. Brian signed it "thanks for all the great music" then thought for a second, crossed out "great", and wrote "good"
My favourite Brian Wilson story was when Bono kneeled at his feet backstage & waxed lyrical about his influence, the power of music, transcendent, etc.
After several minutes of this he interrupted Bono by saying “Say, could you go get me a Coke?”
(In fairness, he apparently did)
My favourite podcast doing a season on a band I’m mostly middling on. I get the feeling I’ll come out of it feeling more positive but it’s going to be a good ride
