All Them Trimmings - Part 2


Who would have thought it possible?

That a random set of lyrics, found by a pair of young music nerds in a "how to be a rock star" book, would eventually spark a middle-aged creative renaissance.

And that this in turn would lead to the establishment of a post-apocalyptic cult that would ultimately save the world?

Some of the above is true.

In this episode, Giles and Steve listen to more versions of the song we're calling "All Them Trimmings", and have a jolly good time doing it.

Featuring their own interpretation, alongside valid contributions from MJ Hibbett and Frankie Machine.

It’s not too late to record your own version!

Including:
  • The meaning of the words "Yeehaa Mi Duck!"
  • Meet Grin, the myopic Native-American face painter
  • Introducing Billy, Biff and Scooter
  • How Steve discovered new vistas
