We were graciously invited by our chums at Punk Rock Elite Podcast to attend the UK premiere of the new NOFX feature length documentary '40 Years of Fu**in Up'. Which we gratefully accepted.

Join Tom and Danny Barrett for a whistlestop tour through Obese Mick's latest cinematic offering, including remarks about: the dangers of roving microphones, seeing Wattie Buchan on the silver screen and a blow by blow account of the 'Sexhibition' we were forced to look at.

Music is obviously from NOFX, but scouse buggers Code Break also make a sneaky appearance.

Leicester is our destination, and Last Edition are our inspiration for our second Ska band in 3 weeks!

Matty, the top brass, is in telling us about his pop group which features a pregnant person currently, including some of their very salubrious gigs and the not so salubrious.
We chat crisps, dead snooker players, Englebert, stupidly spelled place names and soccer.

Tom and Danny Barrett discuss celestial events, a Sowerby Bridge gig report, holiday nightmares, our upcoming jolly boys' outing to see the premiere of the NOFX Film and the Prime Minister's trigger happy approach to warnings of certain death.

Music this week is courtesy of: Dance Hall Crashers, Guineapigs, Making Friends, NOFX and Swayze.

Ok, real talk. For reasons beyond my comprehension, you can’t buy MP3s off Amazon music anymore, so I’ve had to start using Bandcamp. The prices for digital files I’ll never actually own are now £1.20 rather than ££0.99 (or less).

This means the cost of a podcast has increased by a percentage that I can’t figure out. So, anything you can sling us to offset the cost of bringing unbridled joy, love and sh****ng your pants stories we bring you week in, week out.

Any and all contributions appreciated ###x
