I know, I know... I said I wasn't going to do a live podcast this week. But I couldn't help it. I had planned to go down to the after-show party for today's Leith Late, but for some reason my body seems to be rejecting gig going at the moment. This is because it has had an enforced holiday, and is getting used to playing video games and watching boxed sets. Well, it better snap out of it for tomorrow's Edinburgh School for the Deaf album launch, that's for sure.
On today's show, we start with a track from Cuddly Shark - they're playing at 2pm this coming Saturday as part of Avalanche Records Armellodie day of gigs. There's also a great titled track from the debut Pensioner album on Olive Grove Records, and lots more music and shambolic chat.
