The Story So Far...

E1 - James Jani
An interview with, James Jani, a YouTube extraordinaire, having started his channel at the start of the year - and uploading ONLY 9 videos. He has accrued over 400k subscribers in less than a year.

E3 - Aditya Parashar
Aditya Parashar is the long-awaited WILDCARD. By-far one of the more obscure acts I've interviewed, but I have a feeling that you will learn to love his art as much as I do (I wouldn't have interviewed him if it wasn't for Alfie Templeman).

Jackmann is a very talented musician from The Basics (consisting of himself, Gotye, and Tim Heath). In this conversation, I join him whilst he watches some sport, and we answer some peculiar questions from the band's fans. Along with asking him more about his solo ventures, and the possible futures for The Basics and Jackmann.
E6 - Alfie Templeman
Alfie Templeman a 17 year old indie music prodigy, with fusions of Mac Demarco and Todd Rundgren within his art. In this conversation, I talk with him about the meanings behind his many releases, the meaning of Ariel Days, along with the original reason of why he has a dislike of Cucumber, and much, much more... This episode is one not to miss out on!
Series 2
Series 2 is seen as the series which gave the audience at the time a breather. Taking from personal experience, Nicholas realised that he wouldn't listen to many podcasts which were very long. So, he thought it would be best to go for High Quality and Low Quantity.

The tables are turned, as the interviewer becomes the interviewed. An interview with Michael Fenton Stevens, comic actor and podcast host of the My Time Capsule Podcast. In this episode, I talk to him about his experiences of the acting profession, being part of the Hee Bee Gee Bees (Fictitious Comic Pop Group). Along, with being a voice in Spitting Image, and having Cameo appearances in neumerous TV shows over the years. Not only that but, we touch on what drives him to do what he does, along with causes he is passionate about. Along with much, much more...
