My wife remembers that once the BBC New Year was brought in by Gary Numan, could that possibly be true? 🚗

After no kids section of the ABC Fireworks coverage the last 2 years, it's an episode of Bluey instead.

I was once in Bundaberg, hundreds of kms north of home. A scruffy, unwashed man in torn clothing walked up to me on the street and called me by name. Turned out to be the (student) radio announcer immediately before my show - he and his mates having driven across Oz from Broome and just arrived.
Please quote this with stories of your minor interactions with non-celebrities, e.g. “I once accidentally bumped into a man in the Wellingborough branch of Holland & Barrett”

Common Holly - The Wood From The Sail
My favourite track of 2025. It has a stillness in the same way a field is still but full of small or slow movements - hovering brass, flittering piano, Brigitte Naggar's vocals picking its way through the grass. A much needed calm this year.

Ale Hop has come a long way from the band Las Amigas De Nadie and that later clip with the roller derby nuns. Her recent immersive soundworlds are fascinating, but this blow out with Congolese guitarist Bakorta is pure joyous fun.

The sleeping arrangements were carefully planned

Stein Urheim - Ferskvannsdelfinens blues
From right back in February, this is a lovely piece of cosy but open world-building, grass-stalks bending, things flittering about in the breeze. Many time moevements. It's taken the return of the summer stillness for me to return to this

Baxter almost made into my PPP list, and on another day would have. The music works well with the disaffected snark.

Did Baxter Dury add beats and subsequently lose his PPP cred? Not even seen in #PeoplesPop25 bonuses/challenge week. (I mean fair enough as I can't talk - he was on my longlist but didn't quite make it.)

Definitely the most unexpected think I saw on Saturday Morning Rage this year, and my favourite track of those stuck on 2.

Ed Kuepper & Jim White - The 16 Days
I've probably seen more of Kuepper than any other artist live, though not for years. This song perfectly captures the feels. A little melancholic, a little lackadaisical but not really. Jim White's shuffle is the perfect foil.
