136: Podcast #136: Stan & Ollie, Trevor Horn’s 80s album, Steve Mason and more

Have Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly brought back the real Laurel & Hardy, and how many hankies should you take to ‘Stan & Ollie’? Why is Trevor Horn reinventing the 80s if they weren’t broken in the first place? And former Beta Band man Steve Mason says his fourth album ‘About The Light’ is his first proper record – is he right?  Seasoned journos Ian Harrison of Mojo magazine and Michael Hogan of the Guardian and Telegraph join Siân and Andrew to push the piano of pop culture up the metaphorical staircase of criticism. Will it come clattering down and smash to bits? There’s only one way to find out.  Produced and presented by Andrew Harrison and Siân Pattenden. Studio production by Sophie Black.
