Music From A Green Window

This is the download page for podcasts of Cat and Joe’s Southern Comfort, broadcast every Wednesday at 6-7pm on NSR Live

Expect a mix of folk, indie and whatever else we feel like, alongside regular(ish) features like Crazy News, Movie Reviews, Alien Corner and new features “Cat Le Sac vs. Skrebulus Pip” (where we each play a song the other hates) and “Cat’s Yummiest Thing” (Where Cat discusses her favourite foodstuff of the week). Unprofessional, sometimes stupid and often insane, Cat and Joe’s Southern Comfort shouldn’t exist but, lucky for us, it does.

Now updated to act like real podcasts on iTunes! If you’re as OCD as I am about iTunes, it’s brilliant!

——————————————————

Episode One – Unfortunately slightly truncated because of technical difficulties, we have rampant unprofessionalism (as per usual), discussion of rahs, plugging for other people’s club nights, unintentional widening of the North-South divide, and the inaugural (and, at the time, unnamed) Cat Le Sac vs. Skrebulus Pip. Enjoy!

Tracklist:

1. The Smiths – There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
2. The xx – Islands
3. The Maccabees – Can You Give It
4. Mumford & Sons – Winter Winds
5. Jordin Sparks – Battlefield
6. Will Smith – Pump Ya Brakes feat. Snoop Dogg
7. Florence + The Machine – Girl With One Eye
8. Hall & Oates – You Make My Dreams

——————————————————

Episode Two – Apologies for the strange skipping that happens periodically throughout this one, not quite sure about that. However, we have the return of Alien Corner and Movie Reviews, the official induction of “Cat’s Yummiest Thing” and some emails from people WE DON’T EVEN KNOW PERSONALLY (although one of them seemed not to like us very much). Enjoy!

Tracklist:

1. The Drums – I Felt Stupid
2. Emmy The Great – 24
3. Kill It Kid – Bust Its Banks
4. Mandy Moore – Bug
5. Mumford & Sons – Dust Bowl Dance
6. 50 Cent vs. Thomas The Tank Engine – Tom In Da Club
7. Cascada – Everytime We Touch
8. Eels – Packing Blankets
9. The Kills – Sour Cherry

——————————————————

Episode Three – Somewhat shambolic this week I’m afraid, Cat felt ill and I was just a bit crap. Nonetheless there’s talk of ducks, alien cloud formations, hidden aspects of Newcastle and a failed attempt by me to drum up interest in quoting Shakespeare. Boom!

Tracklist:

1. The Dead Weather – Hang You From The Heavens
2. Johnny Flynn – Tunnels
3. Phoenix – 1901
4. Manic Street Preachers – Can’t Take My Eyes Off You
5. Lady Gaga – Eh Eh
6. Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band – Electricity
7. Lenka – Like A Song
8. Israel Kamakawiwo’ole – Somewhere Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World

——————————————————

Episode Four – In an effort to impress Steve Lamacq on the off chance he was listening, we tried to be more professional this week. It didn’t really work, but what matters is we tried. There’s talk of spoons as weapons, much undeserved hatred for Snoop Dogg in Cat Le Sac vs. Skrebulus Pip and an exclusive (read: not exclusive) clip of Christopher Walken ’singing’ Poker Face.

Tracklist:

1. Nirvana – Pennyroyal Tea
2. Camera Obscura – My Maudlin Career
3. Local Natives – Camera Talk
4. Meursault – Red Candle Bulb
5. Mandy Moore – I Could Break Your Heart Any Day Of The Week
6. Snoop Dogg – Drop It Like it’s Hot feat. Pharrell
7. Manic Street Preachers – All Is Vanity
8. Conor Oberst – Souled Out!!!

——————————————————

Episode Five – Cat seems inordinately quiet for some of this, apologies for that, but it’s another wonderfully ramshackle show this week. We have a certain Joe Vann in the studio with us (well, until he got bored and went off for a pint anyway), MORE Alien Corner, some awesome crazy news, and not a German impression in sight.

Tracklist:

1. Manic Street Preachers – Me and Stephen Hawking
2. The Very Best – Warm Heart of Africa (feat. Ezra Koenig)
3. Regina Spektor – Us
4. Stateless – Bloodstream
5. Shad – The Old PRince Still Lives At Home
6. Wham! – Wake Me Up Before You Go Go
7. Meursault – Dirt and the Roots
8. Belle & Sebastian – You Don’t Send Me
9. Echo & The Bunnymen – Nothing Lasts Forever

——————————————————

Episode Six – Sorry about the crackliness, it’s not our fault I promise! Aside from that, we’ve got all the regular features (minus Movie Reviews), the return German accents, people enjoying the idea of leg glands, many a shout out and some classic Sisqo. Until next week folks!

Tracklist:

1. Ben Folds – Landed
2. Vampire Weekend – Cousins
3. Korn – Make Me Bad/In Between Days feat. Robert Smith
4. Good Shoes – Under Control
5. Emmy The Great – Where Is My Mind?
6. Paramore – Decode
7. Sisqo – Unleash The Dragon
8. Bruce Springsteen – Hungry Heart (Live)
9. Pull Tiger Tail – Let’s Lightning

——————————————————

Episode Seven – My god I’m lazy, this is almost a week late and I can only apologise. But never fear, we have a show filled to the brim with radio goodtimes. These include another week where Cat doesn’t actually mind my song she should hate, a complete lack of interest in us asking you what you want for Christmas and even some Movie Reviews. Enjoy!

Tracklist:

1. Maximo Park – Going Missing
2. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart – This Love Is Fucking Right
3. Lykke Li – Possibility
4. Future of the Left – Stand By Your Manatee
5. M.I.A. – Paper Planes
6. Michael Buble – Haven’t Met You Yet
7. Placebo – Nancyboy
8. Eric B. & Rakim – I Know You Got Soul
9. House of Pain – Jump Around
10. The Pogues – Love You ‘Til The End

——————————————————

Episode Eight – It’s all something of a mess this week. Cat couldn’t make it, we were half an hour early, the next person didn’t turn up so we did an hour extra and Joe Vann and Jamie Sanderson reinforced the North-South divide for quite a while. Ah well, it’s probably still funny…
