Episode 288: Brandon Battick & The Pet Shop Boys

About this episode

Howard H Smith discusses metal and comedy with Brandon Battick and interviews a Pet Shop Boys fan.

Patreon Good Stuff Let me explain. First up my good friend and fellow stand up comic and metal geek Brandon returns to the show who you may know from his excellent podcast Disturbing The Priest. We get into all sorts of metal chat as he was preparing for a bay area special when we recorded this, we also chat about comedy, roasts and Pink Floyd. That is followed by my chat with Pet Shop Boys fan Colin whilst he was queueing to see them at The Electric Ballroom. Why did I do this? Why is it on a metal podcast? Because you have more in common with Colin than you would ever think. I finish with a very short news section. This Is Autism Thrash Bollocks. Brandon Video Interview Disturbing The Priest Podcast
