Eclectic Kettle

Bonus 
With and guest

With the last Kettle in the can, we continue our December retrospective with a re-run of January 2016's Bowie spectacular, with special guest host Tom Coates in the studio with Ben. A week after Bowie's death, we pulled together a playlist of covers, collaborations, rarities and chatter. As an artist he meant an awful lot to both of us, so it was a really emotionally satisfying show to put together, and for me was a watershed recording in inspiring me to start taking the show more seriously and consider more about the potential of community radio.

A reminder that BFF.fm is still running our winter fundraiser, so swing by bff.fm/donate for info! And, prepare for January when I'll be back with the brand new show No Magic — see nomagic.show for details; subscribe to the podcast and follow @nomagicradio on social media. Thanks!

Tom very helpfully live-Tweeted this show, so follow along with the directors' commentary:
