ACT ONE: Three of the five gentlemen went to see a David Lynch film and it wasn’t awkward at all, plus the two Daves report back from Arrival, where at least one screening had a surprise special guest in attendance. Yes, this is still primarily a music podcast.
ACT TWO (5:55): Reflections on the life and times of Leonard Cohen.

ACT FOUR (30:00): Give it up for the SONGS OF THE WEEK featuring Soulwax, Mango, Pissed Jeans, Noah Cyrus and Enemies.
ACT FIVE (50:40): Back with their first album in eight years – we’re choosing to pretend that Lulu never happened – have Metallica returned to form? Maybe.
EXIT MUSIC: Overhead, The Albatross – ‘Time’
