What are the pros and cons of Apple Music vs. Spotify? I mainly use Apple and Windows devices to access it, apart from smart speakers and Sonos One. With the impending price increase on Spotify, I’m rethinking it. #askbluesky

Today's home office tunes have been provided by Tears For Fears' back catalogue. Songs From the Big Chair is an absolute corker of an album, one that @matthewjrudd.bsky.social recommended to me nearly 10 years ago.

A Friday afternoon off work. Not had one of those for a long while!

Lauren’s been on breakfast 6 years? Blimey. Great to see her back and on mid-mornings. I can't comment about Grimmy on breakfast as I've only caught the odd minute or so of a show. My 6Music listening dropped through the floor at the start of the pandemic and has never recovered. Thoughts?
It's been announced Grimmy is the new host of 6Music breakfast. Lauren Laverne is moving to mid-mornings.

A real foggy ride over the Wolds, a walk on the front in the sun, a strong builders brew, rafting off the harbour followed by lovely fish and chips. I finally got my wish of going to the coast on Boxing Day. Scarborough served up a welcome distraction from the food mountain at home. #boxingday2024

Final gig of 2024 takes me to The Adelphi in Hull to see Fire The Unstoppable Force supporting Fever. There are worse ways to spend the Saturday before Christmas!

The last full working day of 2024. Now it’s time for Christmas tunes, starting with Smith and Burrows - Funny Looking Angels.

Lovely team Christmas night out in York. Not sure the Mrs is too impressed that I’ve missed the last train. Now on another train where I will be met somewhere enroute. No doubt the divorce paperwork will be waiting for me in Saturday’s mail

An afternoon in #Beverley is planned for my Black Friday, sampling Real and Craft ales. Any recommendations for pubs and hostelries would be most welcome. #eastyorkshire #askbluesky

I had a quick look earlier at @thesquareball.net podcast feed earlier after a 4 and a 1/2 year hiatus (my podcast consumption fell off a cliff edge in COVID and never recovered). Where the hell do I start as there's quite a few shows per week?

My gym and workout playlist is in need of a refresh. Any suggestions from within here? I'm into all sorts of genres, from house music to indie and 80s.

Up at this time on a Saturday can only mean one thing - a bit of parkrun tourism.

My first post in here. I can't help but wonder how long it will be before the content on here goes the same way as the other place. Hopefully, it will be a while yet.
