Nah, just over Zoom. Was him and Max. Doing something for The Quietus, more in line with the European launch of the book, which I think is coming closer?

Amazing. I spoke with him Monday for a piece and found his solidity and depth in describing his constructs beguiling. I can't wait to read this interview

Still the most utterly deranged and beautiful leap for a singular meaning across Shakespeare's oeurve

I've always been mesmerised by how much of a shadow he is to Tom Cruise. Like if you laid an inverse TC tarot card down

The Jerskin Fendrix is a late(ish, I guess) album of the year shout. I think an album about the profoundest grief, by someone who is genuinely very very funny, is exactly what the doctor ordered

Jordan Pickford kept his eighth clean sheet in a row for England in the 3-0 win over Wales, breaking the record previously held by Gordon Banks.

I have an electric cargo bike (so the kid sits at the front). It's a game changer. You're right, it's huge. And if I didn't have a dedicated bike lane and had to weave in and out of traffic, I'd be toast. We have a garage so I can store it, but not sure how that would be possible in London.

I read the article. He was being all precious about which managerial jobs he would take niw, essentially saying only a big club competing for trophies. That's actually the reason they never won anything, they assumed it was already theirs without the hard work.
