New on Patreon! A pint-sized, Purdie-themed bonus episode to rival the tensest courtroom dramas.

The defendant: Bernard Purdie. The charge: claiming to play drums on at least 21 Beatles tracks. It's true crime at its most thrilling – and most funky.

Join Andrew Souter, Oli Pyper and The Drum Doctor as they rifle through the evidence and stare justice in the eye.

This was reluctantly excised from our recent episode covering The Fez. Enjoy!

NEW EPISODE! Strap in, folks. The NavCore's set for Mizar 5 and it's gonna be a long journey. Thankfully, First Mate Souter and Spacebilge Operative Pyper are on board. Settle in next to the Infinite Negativity Drive and let them regale you with tales of sci-fi scepticism, sandwich fillings and mid-rate Steely Dan tunes.
