Hello from across the pond (Brooklyn NYC)! A few years ago, Thomas Walsh and Pugwash dropped by The Word for an excellent podcast episode. Among the topics discussed was his super-fandom of The Move, including desperate attempts to catch their TV appearances in the days of VHS recording. The episode concluded with Pugwash’s acoustic rendition of “I Can Hear The Grass Grow” live in the studio.
Does anyone remember this episode, and if so WHERE CAN I FIND IT? I’ve searched the internet high and low and found no trace of this inspiring and entertaining conversation!
Many thanx in advance
Be well

You can download the whole lot here, but I huge batches. I’ve no idea how you would find the right one without ploughing through them https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BzDu0y2EVkp3fjNkZUFLNUlHUXFaUktsbEJxVXNVVDQwSTJIUEdHSlNMdEtTNUFWN1lZejg&usp=drive_web
It might be Podcast 116.
I’ll shut up.
Great minds, eh?
This earlier thread has details:
They are all available at:

You need No 116, according to my library info. Finding it in the above referenced treasure trove may have to be a matter of trial and error. Good luck!
Yep, 116 it is. The metadata is confusing – this episode is actually titled “The Word – Word Podcast 116”, which is out of line with its near neighbours, making it tricky to spot in the entire listing. The description field says the following:
“Special guests Thomas Walsh and the guys from Pugwash/Duckworth Lewis Method join Mark Ellen and David Hepworth to talk about: cricket, taping The Move off Whistle Test, how U2 own Dublin and how the average musician has more chance of sleeping with Five”
I can’t for the life of me remember what that final sentence meant; Five Identical Sisters? Five Different Duvets At The Same Time?
@johnmontagna if you want just number 116 I can bung it in Dropbox – just let me know.
I downloaded all of them from that site, and last weekend I wanted to cheer myself up by listening to one or two of them. But I must have done something wrong, because the only one that will play is podcast 133 for some reason.
The life of a tech challenged person is full of disappointments…
