Hello podcast fans. We are now more than halfway through the series. Can you believe it?

As we've passed that middle point, I'm going to be taking a couple of weeks off, but don't worry, I won't be leaving you empty-handed.

I've been digging around the back catalogue to find some of the most memorable moments and wonderful stories from some of my

favourite guests so far. So sit back, relax and enjoy, Bryden and the best of.

Oh hello Rob. What are the odds of meeting you here? I didn't know. I didn't know. I've looked this way then. So not's the first time I've turned. Oh, it's Ashling B. Ding! I love that. I'm not sure if it's a sort of nod to one of the biggest bands in Ireland, bewitched, but that we both wore in denim. Oh, yeah.

But you know who's who because I'm wearing a yellow cardigan over my denim so we can really differentiate us apart. Because otherwise, we're always being confused. Absolute. Jedwards, the pair of us, yeah. I'll tell you why I'm wearing this shirt today. Because it looks handsome as a hill. Oh, no, stop it. No, because I watched on Sky a few days ago,

Brian Johnson and Mark Knopfler,

they've got a new series where they talk to... as a hell. Oh, no, stop it. No, because I watched on Sky a few days ago, Brian Johnson and Mark Knopfler,

they've got a new series where they talk to singers and musicians, and they had Tom Jones on.

And he was wearing a more substantial, thicker denim. And I thought, well, that's good,

because it's just a solid block. And that's... But there's texture to it and nuance. Yeah. So from the start, you might think that's one colour, but denim, she can surprise you. Yeah, yeah. So it's called, when you do double denim like I'm doing, it's called a Canadian tuxedo. But maybe if you and Tom Jones and I don't know, Rysifans all start wearing it, then it could be a Welsh tuxedo. You know who's the most celebrated person? If I were to say the name Trevor Nunn to you, what would that mean? Theatre director, darling? Yes. I don't know that he wears double denim. He does. Does he? Trevor wears Sir Trevor Nunn, wears nothing. And I was somewhere... None but but denim they call him. Indeed. Sometimes

triple denim. No way. I swear to God. What may be like a denim kerchief? A waistcoat over the

denim shirt. But seriously, seriously. Does he line down sideways into the room like a crab or?

Yes, he does that as well. Yeah. And of course, Shaking Stevens. Yes, well. You're too young for Shaking

Stevens? I know who he is, but I'm too young for all of your references. You are, aren't you? Yes, I really am. You've just done your GCSEs, am I right? Well, they call it the leaving certain Ireland, but yes, I have just... I didn't know you were Irish. No, I don't like to mention it up front. I like to have it as a slow surprise. Yeah. Like finding out someone's

I don't know, xenophobia or front. I like to have it as a slow surprise.

Like finding out someone's, I don't know, xenophobia, something like that.

Just gently, gently over the course of a conversation, you're like,

wait a minute, this person could be Irish.

I'm picking up a slight lilt.

Yeah. That last time I saw you, we've met, I'm going to say, only twice, maybe three times?

I was thinking that in my bumper car journey on the way down here.
