Agh whenever you mention the wall of hearts I always think of Danny Dyer ‘bring on the wawl’ on his awful tv show 😂

Great show today. For my three songs, I'd pick 'Lone Star State of Mind' by Nanci Griffith, 'Five Minutes' by Gretchen Peters and 'Indian Summer' by Brooks and Dunn.

Also I can see your point about Moondance and Brown Eyed Girl, but when Van Morrison released 'Born To Be Free' in 2020, that was an uplifting moment for me. At that point, I don't think anyone in the mainstream had spoken out and that song was on-point

Brilliant Pod. Princess Diana doing the chart rundown had us in stitches. As Trudi said NEVER play Michael Bawbags again!

Have a great wknd everyone, don’t let the fuckers grind you down xx

Well, Michael Ball completely ruined that track. I suffered it until the end because of your wonderful voiceover comments Abi!

What a diverse selection of music choices from our SubStack family.

Enjoy your weekend everyone💖

Another great POD today. Yes Michael Balls version of since you've been gone is crap

Heyyyuuup Abi. Don't ever stop - rename pod suggestion "Learning while Laughing". What a joy.

The Corries were a Scottish folk duo in late 60's, 70's. They made their own instruments and were amazing. I'm from Edinburgh originally and we had an amazing folk scene which disappeared - a bit like the Fringe has now.....🙄😍

Loved the pod today. Wtf was Michael Ball thinking?! I'm a rock chic myself but this is enough to turn anyone off. Utter shite! Your comments though 🤣 whoarrrrh!

Excellent to channel a bit of Di for us. Ta v much. There’s a show there definitely. Perhaps for more recent indolent listeners you would give like a twenty second description of what this wall of hearts is. I get it’s an NHS chuckfest installation South bank? Who are these handmaidens who loiter there?

I did enjoy your Wall - what a bunch of no marks. Henry being one of the worst imo along with Festher. Did Currie get up there? I can’t even be bothered looking up Jon Gaunt to see who he is.

Keep on keeping on.

Some great choices. Love Local Hero - my all time favourite film - absolutely classic. Love the theme tune.

I'd love to see you join the Wall Of Hearts group, pitch up to help them one week and get some insider stories about the team who run it. Is that too naughty?😅 Loved the music segment and the cheesy Michael Ball singalong. Thanks for the laughs Abi. xx
