124: Christina Aguilera - Stripped with ELKAE

The Juvenalia Book Club is back! We’re talking about book 2 of Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials series, The Subtle Knife. We talk about our love for new characters Will and Mary, the nature of dark matter in the His Dark Materials universe, whose dark material is it anyway?, trusting that a book will give you the answers you’re looking for if you just keep reading. Also, Andrea probes Alan’s understanding of what he’s reading and Alan tries his best to answer her. Alan is @alan_maguire. Juvenalia is his main thing right now but he does a bit of standup sometimes too. Andrea  @AndreaCleary_. Her other podcasts are My Favourite Album With Andrea Cleary and The Nialler9 Podcast.

Donegal folk artist Ramper is with us to talk about the impact that Rory Gallagher’s live album Irish Tour ‘74 had on him as a young fella. We also talk about how our taste in guitar gods has changed as we’ve gotten older and just about the whole idea of guitar gods in general. Ramper’s debut album Loner is out now. He’s on tour this month. You can catch him on 25th May in Belfast, followed by Galway (28th May), Dublin (29th May) and Donegal (31 May). Alan is @alan_maguire.
