The stuff of nightmares.

I’ll level with you. This has sold so badly. I have no idea why. New product. Return of old product. Bespoke Father’s Day card, and genuinely as cheap as we can make it. 🤷‍♂️

NEW VIDEO! I sat down with Richard from Challenge The Road to discuss the Ferrari LUCE / LOST the plot. As it's a recorded call, I wanted something to show you on screen as we chat, so yes, I tried to find EVERY SINGLE FERRARI LUCE MEME FROM THE LAST WEEK and some of them are hilarious. So enjoy a 20 minute chat about the car, some hilarious memes and then a debate on what the Top 10 Ferraris are. Although the best comment on the video so far is: "My favourite Ferrari is the Jaguar XJ220" youtube.com/watch?v=NSm2nFLD…

By every metric, OK Computer was a humongous success for Radiohead. So everything was in its right place for them to become the biggest band on the planet. Huge critical acclaim, emotionally resonant songs, arena-sized dynamics, unique frontman, mystique, ambition. They could have refined the OK Computer sound into something even more polished and universal and become absolutely enormous in a very conventional sense. Essentially, they could have become the next U2. And there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. U2 are a brilliant band with many fantastic songs and a handful of genuinely great albums. At the end of the day, somebody has to be the biggest band in the world. U2 wanted it, pursued it, and achieved it. And hats off to them. What quickly became clear with Radiohead was that they didn’t want that at all. And when it became a real possibility, they immediately set out to sabotage it. That’s what made Kid A such a remarkable record. It wasn’t just a “weird follow-up.” Instead, here is a band refusing the natural laws of rock stardom. Just as total acceptance was within touching distance, they disappeared further into themselves. There are no obvious singles here, no big accessible anthems. Yorke’s lyrics become even more fragmented, the vocals often buried in the mix. Aphex Twin, jazz, ambient music, krautrock, all of it gets pulled into the sound. Jittery, awkward textures that unsettle rather than invite. Another hit album? You wouldn’t have thought so. Yet somehow, Radiohead carried the audience with them. Normally, a move like this either destroys a band commercially or shrinks them into cult status. Instead, Kid A went to number one on both sides of the Atlantic. In hindsight, the alienation, technological anxiety, and abstraction of OK Computer almost feel like a prelude to this record’s deeper plunge into emotional and musical dislocation. The audience wanted to go further and further all along. On Radiohead’s terms. And that only strengthened the myth of Radiohead, because they are one of those mythical bands. The refusal of the obvious move became part of their identity. They genuinely seemed guided by artistic instinct rather than career logic. In doing so, Radiohead joined that small group of artists capable of pushing boundaries and challenging the listener without losing a mass audience. That’s extraordinarily rare.

WE'VE FINALLY DONE IT.  We've made a BBQ seasoning and we're dead happy with it! Inspired by flavours in our OG This all purpose BBQ seasoning is great on burgers, steaks, potatoes,  In fact, it's good just about anything you're happy to try and not burn while your kids are running around ruining everyone elses time, and arguging about who's been in the paddling pool for too long, and then you look at the overflowing bin and see there are wasps gathering all around it and you know you're going to have to deal with that cause no one else will, and then you realise that you don't really like the people you invited but they're DEFINITELY going to outstay their welcome, so you just have to focus on grilling whatever it was you put on the grill an hour ago just hoping, praying that it doesn't burn, you flip it, over and over and over and over, still hoping that the flames from the coals don't punish you, the delicate tight rope you walk - kids still screaming - dog has got into the hot dog buns- one child crying, is it yours, who knows, flip them again, ARGH THIS ONE BURNED, but wait... this one is, EDIBLE, you sit down and bite into it and enjoy it about as much as you would have done if you had cooked it in the oven, but now you get to do it outside in the humid overpowering sunshine as your sweat reminds you that you are getting older, and slowing down, indeed, that you are mortal, and one day perhaps it will be YOU that some greater being hopes not to burn as you open your ninth beer and stare into the sun...

Ham Hocks from Asda! Delish. Yum 😋. What ya think?

Thank you @TeamYouTube for taking a look at the Kino Casino clip channel! Lots of people have been making noise about this because it was taken down for no reason. This story has blown up and the internet will be a better place when the channel is back up. 🙏 thank you!
