I had the pleasure of being a guest on Robert Elm’s fab Radio London show this week. I got to talk about the Pointy Birds, Ricky Gervais, Britpop and misfiling vinyl at Selectadisc. Plus, of course, my book Anoint My Head and forthcoming live shows. If you would like to hear the full interview, you can listen on demand right here. I’m on after Blur about 30 mins in. Wooo Hoo!
