But he's also a big Smiths and Morrissey fan.\nIs there something inherently funny about Morrissey's high-drama perspective on the world? And in what ways do Trump and Moz share similarities?\nAs usual, Nanny Val reacts to a track, there's the trivia quiz, we dig into the lyrics of a song and we bring you some \"if you love Morrissey then you'll love this\" recommendations.\n⁠Join us on Patreon⁠ for bonus monthly episodes, full-length interviews (Matt's runs to 40 minutes), access to the members-only WhatsApp chat and more. You'll also get access to full-length archive interviews with people such as Stephen Street and Alain Whyte.\nThis podcast was produced by ⁠Gary at Red Eye⁠.\nThis episode was briefly removed from podcast services due to a potential copyright issue.
