A busy one this week with some good friends of the show returning – and they’ve been very busy lately.
First up I was joined by local actor & performer Swaylee Loughnane, who has just become one of the local area’s fastest growing YouTubers with his channel ’80s & 90s Retro Collector’. Showcasing his journeys around local toy fairs and expos, Swaylee’s channel has grown to 60k subscribers in just a few months, and gained a few guest hosts (including me!), all chatting memories and memorabilia from back in the day. We also chatted about Swaylee’s upcoming wrestling-themed feature film based on a true story, A Team Effort, which begins shooting later this year, and will no doubt be discussed more on the channel – click here to check out his latest videos!
Next up was the return of Lady Grey & The Earls (l-r Justin, Graham, Amy, Alli), who have had a busy month so far with gigging at the Essex Arms alongside a successful evening at the Panic Awards for their theatre work, both of which we discussed tonight alongside a live session and new material they’re currently working on. They can next be seen live this Wednesday (23rd) at Chelmsofrd’s Hotbox, supported by If Not Now. Find all their releases & social links on Bandcamp.
