Summary

Elis and John are oh so hip this week after John took a trip to Google HQ and saw the office ping pong, Mind Exchanges and Thought Symposia. As well as hearing about your fun work situations, Elis defended the not-so-stupid Super Furry Animals after a controversial Sacred Cow, John took a look at an incredible celebrity autobiography, and Producer Dave gave a cautionary tale set in Benicassim. All this plus Textual Healing and a close-fought Winner Plays On. Enjoy the podcast and remember you can get in touch with the boys on sunday@xfm.co.uk and you can listen live every Sunday from 10am til 1pm on Xfm.
