Brett and Leon challenge each other to remember when they were part of the great unwashed, when they like countless Rhodes students in the 80s were like Neil from The Young Ones. When life revolved around Tassies, politics and music, but mainly music, or mainly Tassies, depending on who you ask. But as usual, in-between the kakpraat is some great South African music.

In this special episode, Brett sits down to with Michael Cross – director of the new James Phillips documentary “The Fun’s Not Over” to talk about James Phillips, documentary making, the South African music scene of the 1980s and 1990s and a bit of life, the universe and everything. Between chewing the proverbial cud, they manage to play some great records from James’s discography, featuring his solo work and the many bands he was a part of. The interview is an near-essential companion to Michael’s film for anyone who can’t get enough of Mr Cross’s can insights into his subject matter.
