Gig Pigs With Ivo Graham And Alex Kealy podcast

7:38

Last summer, something monumental happened. One of Uncuffed's founding producers, Greg Eskridge, came home after more than 30 years in prison. In this episode we’ll bring you back to that emotional day last summer when he walked out of the San Quentin gates, free at last. Our work in prisons is supported by the California Arts Council, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, independent foundations, and donations from listeners like you.

Seated or standing? Support band or drinks? Sing along as loudly as possible or watch in respectful silence?

Join them every Thursday to find out who they’ve been to see live this week, and which guest they roped along for the ride. 'Gig Pigs' with Ivo Graham and Alex Kealy.

S4 EP15: A Complete Unknown with Nish Kumar 1:49:00

il y a environ 4 jours1:49:00

1:49:00

There’s a podcast about Bob Dylan released now called Gig Pigs (what a title!). Nish Kumar is starring in the guest role. Nish is a brilliant podcaster so we were sure he’d be completely believable about Bob. Or a younger Bob. Or some other Bob. The podcast was recorded after the Pigs and Nish watched A Complete Unknown – a nailed on Oscar winner that came out in 2025. It’s a fantastic retelling of events from the early ‘60s that led up to the fiasco at Newport. After you’ve listened to the podcast give it a review! Learn more about your ad choices.

Watch the G-I-G Tuesday, nail the P-I.G Friday, what a pod, What. A. Pod! Alex and Ivo are joined by two comedy clubnight pioneers this week to remember the hardest of the times they don’t forget, in an episode about Grammy guzzling Gallic gods of gain and groove that went from Genesis to (Daylight) Rendez-Vous, A-Cross the space of barely a week. Seek Justice wherever you can, pronounce it however you see fit, wear your home made jackets with pride, and go watch Haddow and Flood because they! are! Our friends! We’ll! Never be alone again! Until the multiple privilege adjacent Simian Mobile Disco anecdotes in the episode’s tail that is. No need to ask our school, to figure out how cool we are!

S4 EP13: Thirteen Senses 48:34

48:34

Come on, come on, put your hands into the fire and brimstone of Ivo’s student music journalism. Does his article about the premier Cornwallian bedwetters of the mid noughties rehash too many of the themes of his Bloc Party piece? Well, (a) it doesn’t, and (b) we think you’ll enjoy Alex hauling him over the coals for his straw men, his definition of “spooky” and his prioritisation of Scroobius Pip over the original Ten Commandments.

We don’t believe in an interventionist pod, but we know, darling, that you do. From font size to Five Guys, ogling bulges to leathering pipes, we invite Edinburgh Comedy Award double winner the Kearnel to pick over a long dark night in Nick’s red right hands, moving through the flames of anarchy and the winds of tyranny and also the difference between Reiss and M&S suit sizes.

Here's the thing: in the modern world you don't reveal your favourite album of 2024 until three weeks into 2025. A chaotic Christmas on Excel resolves itself with the final present of the year being unwrapped: a top-heavy but fundamentally colossal album which dominated the vote despite Alex and Ivo nobly/disingenuously swerving it with their own selections. Thanks to all who submitted, congratulations to our lottery winners, and sorry to those whose choices narrowly missed out! It may feel bad!

A new year means an old us (releasing NYE content on Jan 16th, with the Gig Pigs Album of the Year to follow next week). Sophie Ellis Bextor, Jools Holland, and more ageless figures in the spotlight as the pigs ruminate once more on music based TV, music based board games and the music based passage of time.

Oh Lordy Lod, oh lordy me, what a gig Ivo missed this week, wild raving in the north while Alex and Vittorio "Victor" Angelone were wild roving in the west. Grab your Lankum tote and listen in horror (folk) at the various snafus he makes in pursuit of the emerald bandwagon, via viral pizzas, marital pledges and Master Kealy's Busted tap-in of dreams.

We are trying to be heroic in an age of modernity, and, in other news, we are releasing an ep from the old Patreon vaults (shout out to the £3.80 legends of yesteryear): a deep dive between gigs into the sinister hum of Ivo's music journalism circa 2007 (or was it 2005?), going in to bat for the second Bloc Party album, musing on what it's like to be in a band (not that we'd know), and commissioning a fantastically speculative bit of data-harvesting for a starting price of £200.

S4 EP4: Bat for Lashes with James Benge 1:20:01

1:20:01

Letters to our daughters and our editors alike in this episode, as Ivo comes face to face with the train that crashed his heart, Oxstu music czar 2010 (and CBS Football correspondent 2024) James Benge. You might not need to know in real time when Stephen Fry is scratching his arse, but there’s some solid glasnostalgia about Tinie Tempah, Alphabeat, Pure Reason Revolution and other people we (James and Alex) interviewed when they were just kids in the dark, alongside their more recent trip (Ivo absent once more) to watch Natasha Khan dreaming of Delphi at the Barbican, alongside some pool-pooers who make Alex tear his luscious hair out.

Which gig pigs gig has your disbelief been most suspended at? What’s Alex’s dad doing for his 90th? And who is Ted Sneezington? This and other big questions resolved in an epic poem of a Gig Pigs episode which is set in the Royal Opera House, but still manages to spend much of it debating Strokes albums. We’re so fun!

1:37:09

Oh hogs you're damn right, you can't read a pig's mind, we're living in two tribes and heading for war! The four porkiest poptimists in podcast put aside their whole lotta history to pay tribute after tribute, arguably one too many, to June's gig at the Something Kinda Ooooh2. Nobody sees the show, not all of it anyway, but it's an electric night and a long hot recap ft. the definition of mawkish, a horrible memory from The Inbetweeners S02E02, a brief grapple with Nicola Roberts's political campaigns, a brave attempt to connect the Parent Trap and the Cold War, and arguably the most fractious end to a Pig (if not Hog) podcast yet. We're gonna cause a controversy! Download extra swill, rate and leave review.
