This 2003 #MarkRadcliffe BBC radio documentary about #ThePogues has been topped and tailed following #ShaneMacGowan’s death, and is a good listen.

Mark interviews Shane after midnight in a Dublin hotel bar, where Shane is smart and witty despite drinking pints of vodka and Baileys, but Mark himself sounds very, very drunk and slurred.

Mark: Was the idea to combine punk and Irish music?
Shane: No no no no no no no no…
Mark: I’ll take that as a “no”, then.

#FrancisLee has died at the age of 79.

I know less than nothing about football in general terms and even less about the history of Manchester City, but as a #MarkAndLard listener of a specific vintage I do know this song very well: https://youtu.be/2MYXl0Q3k38?si=VZgsObtrC-IzU8eA
