Harvey Price time then.

In 2016, I had an ill fated stint as the Social Media Producer on Loose Women on ITV. It was a disaster, I should never have applied for the job, I certainly shouldn’t have been given it. I could do the actual job standing on my head, but the politics of the place…woof.
If you buy this record your life will be better.

I like the French version, but I like that it doesn’t quite scan.

Here she is. This is excellent.

I still have this! I thought only I knew it!

What a strange number one. Possibly the strangest.

We went to New York and happened on a ballroom where she was DJing. That was fun. She was amazed that English people were there.

AI filmmaking is completely unserious.

You've got people with $30k begging the internet for ideas by next week because they have nothing of their own to say, it's just slop for the sake of slop. Embarrassing state of affairs.

Has he been racist about Jesse Jackson yet, or is it a treatment day?

Never done a lick of graft.

In honour of the day, I’m listening to this.

There is a case to say that this is the greatest DJ set of all time. It certainly totally transformed DJing.

57 Mount Pleasant Street is a great pub quiz answer.

‘Encore Une Fois’ meaning ‘One More Time’, which was why Daft Punk called it that.

Because they bring us joy.
Because they are at our mercy.
Because they teach us kindness.
And compassion.
And understanding.
Because they are voiceless.
Because they wish us no harm.
Because they are our companions.
And because we are all animals.
We will never stop being a voice, for them. 💙

If you happen to be in or near Paignton on Wednesday 12th August, WHY NOT COME AND HEAR ME TALK at the Torbay Literary Festival? Why not, indeed? I'm not the sole attraction. The night before, it's Biggins. Then later on Wednesday, Melvyn Hayes. Glory be.
