Singer-songwriter Gaz Coombes discusses the writing of songs from his excellent solo albums, World's Strongest Man and Matador, as well as hits with his former band, Supergrass. During the conversation, Gaz explains how he develops ideas in the studio and how he has expanded his songwriting palette to include the art of 'soundwriting'.

Andrew was really tired when he recorded this solo episode and then was really tired for the subsequent month it took for him to get his act together to release it. Its still full of great content and silly flubs. There is talk of the shows that Andrew has been watching from the Winter 2019 season. Shows from before and even some tokusatsu and real life stuff thrown in. Its a whirlwind of craziness. Enjoy!

Most famous for the beaches, weather, disneyland and reality shows about privileged housewives and teenage drama.

How many hours a week would you train before a strongman competition?

• If the show is on Sat, my last raining day is Tuesday. Maybe 1-2 hours, light work to keep the blood moving and muscles staying primed to lift.
