I can do a seagull.

It's a good trick.

I really like the tape.

It's sort of obsolete in so many ways, but it was a significant...

part of my youth and so it still holds on to that excitement that you'd get a cassette with something recorded on it and you could you know you listen to your favorite album on it and you could walk anywhere with it so to recreate that feeling for yourself as someone who's clearly not a young person anymore it's quite moving the fact that we had to time it so you had to turn it over and start it on the other side this is a good ad for it i think it's a great trailer

Yeah, and it's generally what happens, I reckon, is that someone or other, they just kept the machinery because it was too hard to get rid of it.

or someone bought them cheap and thought, you know what, I'll just, God, someone's giving that away.

I'll just take that, keep it in the garage and wait it out.

Yeah, I think those poor bands thought that they'd be able to live out their glory years

just from royalties and the record sales kicking over and over and over, and that's why so many of those great artists are still on the road, which is probably good for them, to be honest.

Can we just remind everyone that most of the time we live in completely different countries, so having merchandise that we can both sign at the same time.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, let's do it virtually instead, Tim.

I've already worked out that if you have to have some, for record collectors out there, they quite like where the different versions of it are pressed.

So it's like a UK pressing of a famous record or an American pressing.

So the reality of it will be is that there will be the next run of, and which will come to a big announcement in a second, which the next run will probably have to be done in the UK, not in Australia.

Yeah.

And you will have, and they will say made in the United Kingdom on them, and you'll be in charge of distribution.

It'll go with the Etsy store, yes.

The other exciting news is that come the week of 15th of June, this little podcast is going to be available for UK and Irish listeners for the first time.
