Podcast: 101 Part Time Jobs with Giles Bidder
Published On: Thu Jun 11 2026
Description: One of the best albums of 2026 so far is Ratboys' Singin to an Empty Chair. A comforting swell of unrushed, attentive indie rock 'n' roll, it sounds like a band who don't expect anything other than enjoying their time playing music and connecting with people. Julia and Sean from the band tell stories of first tours, funny jobs and extreme coffee highs. Get in touch giles@mightymoonmedia.com Thanks Islington Townhouse for having us.
