The first episode of Star Trek Deep Space Nine they are looking at this week is Body Parts. Nana Visitor’s pregnancy. Nick-picking. “Necessary Evil!” So many Limp Bizkit puns this week! WTF? Second episode of Star Trek Deep Space Nine is Broken Link. DS9 Seinfeld crossover. Kate Upton. Ooh, I’m looking forward to Joe finding out what happens at the end of the whole series with Rom. After discussing the two episodes, they discuss how they felt about the season as a whole. What does the future for KUWTC hold? 

Face The Music: An Electric Light Orchestra Podcast - (0:15) episode 044: February 2 2019: Eric and Eric are looking at the song Evil Woman from the album Face The Music. Song snippet. “What’s that song all about?” Recorded in three locations - basic track at De Lane Lea in London, orchestra at Musicland in Munich, and female backing vocals at Record Plant LA. Written in fifteen minutes as they needed one song for the album. “What’s that noise?” I think it’s a clavinet. “Was it a hit or was it [poop]?” Yes it was. So many cover versions!

H went to see No Time To Die. How ridiculous... H got a fine at the cinema because the bond film was longer than the cinemas car park allows for. WTF? Listener’s messages. “It is quality checked…” I can back that up. Ant is a great editor, as I know from him being on PLU.” On to the delayed discussion about the album Radiation. I like the idea of them looking at the Wikipedia page of the album to fact check it. “The biscuit equivalent of a hobnob!” “I have really good ideas that nobody else seems to agree with…” “Woolworth’s synthesiser”. Diary - Brazil. Surprise Father’s Day gifts left in his tour cases. Castro’s Park, Guyana. Student interview. Weird Brazilian soundcheck very suspicious electrics in the shower, eek. Shoe repair.

Presented by Amanda joined by occasional guest Chris Cole. Vacation stories. Van Gogh exhibit. Airplane reference! What are they drinking? We can’t get Federalist Cabernet wine over here. The sip libs… The choice of subject this week is the five worst sequels of all time. “Robocop gets wings!” Chris, I completely disagree with you, because I think that Alien3 is a f*ing great claustrophobic sci-fi thriller. I don’t like the ending though. The film Staying Alive shouldn’t have been born! Don’t judge every dick by its cover. “We’re doing a public service.”

Song snippet. “What’s that song all about?” Recorded again at 3 studios, the same as Evil Woman. I co-lead vocal with Kelly Groucutt. Nothing to do with David Hasseloff. A noticeably bad edit for the single. Archive is Jeff Lynne talking about using a section of this song reversed in Evil Woman. “What does Madeline think?”
