Hello, I'm Craig Parkinson, and this is the two-shot podcast of The Catalan, The Let's Dive In.

How the devil are you? Yes, it is Thursday.

Of course it is. I mean, you've got up, you've opened the blinds, you've thrashed up in the curtains and excitement because it's not Wednesdays Thursday.

It's nearly the weekend, but also is the two-shot podcast with a brand new, gorgeous episode.

It's a welcome return to Mr. Martin. I'm not going to say I teased it a little bit on social media. There's no point.

I've been dying to get mine back on. There was loads much more we had to talk to, as ever.

Yes, of course, he's one of my best pals in the world.

But when do we have time these days to sit down and have an hour or so, just gabbing and getting to know what's going on with him, what he's been up to, I'll tell you what he's been up to.

He started a new podcast. He has started a new podcast. It's called Restless Natives. It's with his good friend and I'm not going to say my good friend.

My acquaintance, Mr. Gordon Smart, who I do, I adore them both. It's called Restless Natives. What is the podcast about?

I don't know. I mean, I know what I want it to be about. They talk about the ramifications of starting or building a festival.

Up in Greenock, Barry Park, but there's loads more than anecdotes. The story's alcohol is usually involved, not when they're recording, I don't think.

But you know, it doesn't matter. Whatever it is, it's a lot of fun. It's how every week, Restless Natives, Martin, Compton, Gordon Smart, the clown and the Wolfman.

Yeah, look, if you're not a child of a certain area, you won't understand what that means, but tune in from episode one and Gordon will take you through it.

I'm hard recommend that I'm not just saying that because that my friends, it's very, very funny, extremely entertaining and they've both got delicious voices.

Which always helps, doesn't it? I think so. And it's recorded super, bro. It sounds delicious, get involved, Restless Natives.

Also, it's lovely to catch up with Martin. Mrs. Compton popped on the line for a time. Big shout out to Tiana.

I was down here in Bryan, Martin and Tiana were at home in Las Vegas. And instead of doing what we normally would do if we were together, we should go out, have some food, have some drinks and get up to whatever.

We said it all Friday night and did this. This is the two-shot podcast. It's part two with the most stylish one in Scotland, Mr. Martin, Compton.

Record that. I want to record on my, on my mics as well because it's so much nicer. That's a bit I kept you've got. I like that, mate.

Hello, now you're a professional podcast on my friend. Now, for everybody that didn't read the blurb and heard the gorgeous laugh there, it's always a pleasure when we have a two-part with somebody.

But it's even more a pleasure when it's one of my closest friends in the entire world and the only way that we connect is by recording a podcast.
