Irish musicians Mick McCullagh and Nathan O’Regan discuss famous music myths, legends and true stories. Is Paul dead? Is Elvis alive? Just what exactly was Phil Collins singing about on ‘In The Air Tonight’? All stories discussed with as much factual accuracy and focus as scrawled graffiti in the backstage bathroom. Peppered among these famous tales are personal anecdotes from each of the lads that highlight the disparity between the perception and the realities of gigging life.

Also featured are fun segments such as, "Bereaved people selling houses", "Christmas Tree Fight" & "Cement Cup Coaster", which is as amazing an example of alliteration as it is a deadly serious PSA.

I've never checked the description of a podcast ever for anything ever, but I can be guaranteed the one week I'd leave it out there'd be uproar on Elon's precious Twitter and I'd never hear the end of it.
