THE RIDER has Martin Fitzgerald from: a) Being our friend b) Ruth and Martin’s Album Club on the show this week which is nice. He’s sort of talking about his book but more than that talking about where music journalism and criticism lets the side down that...
THRESHOLD Festival’s Chris Carney is in for a chat about the magnificence they all have planned for the weekend on 1st, 2nd and 3rd of April. It is fair to consider The Rider to be excited! The line up looks fantastic and it is outrageously cheap. And we have a...
The Rider has trouble remembering what it has been up to this week, though it has, as ever, fulfilled on its promise of 10 great songs. Neil Atkinson hosts a slightly frenetic show with some weekend and Oscar chat from John Gibbons, Stephanie Heneghan and Adam Melia....
THE RIDER has a guest in this week – Mo Stewart. It’s a clever bit of guesting because Mo has been DJing for 15 years and has done 9 of those in Liverpool. And so Mo is helping us out on every level. Spiritual. Practical. Find out more within. What else?...
THE RIDER this week has lots of refuge talk. Seems unlikely I know but getting you out of the house and into the tip is the hardest part of life… Neil Atkinson hosts as John Gibbons, Adam Melia and Stephanie Heneghan talk about weekends home and abroad along...
NEIL Atkinson is here and then he isn’t. He’s a busy man. Things to do. But John Gibbons is on hand to take over presenting duties, and he certainly wouldn’t do anything rash like promise to buy everyone Beyonce tickets…. Elsewhere there are 10...
JOHN GIBBONS has chosen the best song ever and Neil Atkinson has opened the show with it. It verges on rude actually, the way John just chose the best song ever with a minimum of fuss. Stephanie Heneghan has a full report on the first night’s djing for the Rider...
KANYE has let the side down. The weekends were massive. Neil Atkinson’s been watching Edge Of Darkness. But despite all that The Rider has news. News of playing records to humans of a weekend. The Rider goes live at Motel, Friday and Saturday nights. But the...
A SHOW within a show. Wheels within wheels. Adam Melia is away for The Rider but then he isn’t – Neil Atkinson, Stephanie Heneghan and John Gibbons are all ready, present and able but Adam cannot be there. However they devise questions for John to ask him....
THE RIDER this week was recorded on the day of the news about David Bowie passing away. Before that news had even broken, John Gibbons, Stephanie Heneghan and Adam Melia had been discussing what to play from his most recent album. In the end John picked Dollar Days...
The Pub Crawlers Podcast: Down The Local with Mo Stewart (S1E5)
The fifth episode of season one of The Pub Crawlers Podcast was recorded ‘Down The Local’ in Liverpool, as Rob Gutmann hosts Steve Graves and Mo Stewart to discuss worst pub toilet experiences, music in pubs, Glastonbury, and more…
The Pub Crawlers Podcast represents a quest to find the very best authentic UK pubs, filmed on location inside some of the finest boozers across the UK and Ireland.
Well, sort of. It’s equally about friends having three to four pint-fuelled, quintessential pub conversations, on any subjects that damn well occur to them, in a range of outstanding boozers across the land. So, really, it’s as much about what we get up to in pubs as the pubs themselves.
The shows are presented by self-styled boozer connoisseur and long-time pub designer and owner, Rob Gutmann, who is on a mission to find the very best pubs in the UK and to define the essence of the ‘true’ pub.
Featuring a wide range of guests (mainly Rob’s mates), we’ll be visiting pubs the length and breadth of the country, bedding into the very best of them, and chatting about our lives lived in and around boozers.
The first season of the Pub Crawlers focuses on the North of England, taking in Chester, Sheffield, Manchester, Liverpool, and even a brief foray to the north side of the Midlands in Nottingham.
Plug yourself in to the ongoing conversation as it disappears down all manner of tenuously pub-related worm holes, with your new mates at TPC. And you don’t need a pint to enjoy us, but it might help…
