Edinburgh Man #121
I’ve used that photo before haven’t I? Ah well. So another pre-recorded podcast this week. Basically my Thursday night was gearing up to be a night of craziness, so I recorded this early on. In the end it was …

Edinburgh Man #120
Oops. So I forgot that I was going out tonight. Pictish Trail and eagleowl at The Caves, no less. Unfortunately it clashed with the normal podcast time, so some rescheduling was required. I did try asking the bands via …
Edinburgh Man #119
So… that experiment doing the podcast on a Tuesday night didn’t last very long. We’re back! On a Thursday! This feels more normal anyway. Oh, and it’s Valentine’s Day too. As such this …
Edinburgh Man #118
And… we’re back in the room. February 2013 already. Crazy. Another year and still no jet pacs, etc, etc. After taking my now annual “holiday”, at least from the world of podcasting and …
Best of 2012 - Part 2
I have my party hat on, which can mean only one thing... It's the best tracks of 2012! Numbers 25 down to (that all important) number one. Hooray! For the first three weeks of December the listeners to the Edinburgh Man …
Best of 2012 - Part 1
That time of year again. It's the first half of the best tracks from 2012 as played on the podcast, and as voted by the listeners. Again I thought I'd have to combine the results of the poll with my own list, but in the …
Edinburgh Man #117
Last Friday I went to the Song, by Toad Christmas party at Summerhall in Edinburgh. It consisted of a brilliant line-up of bands and artists from the record label. As well as being the launch gig for the new EP by King …
Edinburgh Man #116
WITH DAVID MACGREGOR FROM KID CANAVERAL The nights are fair drawing in. On this cold, damp December evening the podcast is brightened up with a visit by David MacGregor from Edinburgh’s Kid Canaveral. Not only has …
Edinburgh Man #115
It’s an early doors podcast! 11 o’clock in the AM. Can you believe it? As if that wasn’t already crazy enough, I’ve just finished cooking a chilli. Mad. Anyway, today is a day off. Or at least, a …
Edinburgh Man #114
So this is a bit of an experiment… For the last couple of weeks I’ve been doing a daily podcast at junior.edinburghman.com. As part of that I wrote some nerdy scripts that automatically post the podcast from …
Edinburgh Man #113
After a bit of a crazy busy day at work my brain wasn’t really functioning for this podcast. In fact, I wasn’t sure if I had the energy to record one. But in the end, my body and mind was revitalised by a …
Edinburgh Man #112
I knew it. I knew it. The technical issues that have been plaguing the Interweb connection at Edinburgh Man Towers finally came to a head during today’s live podcast. Actually, that’s maybe being a tad …
Edinburgh Man #111
I’m writing this before recording the podcast… so let’s hope it worked. Mainly because I’ve been having technical issues (as always). My router managed to pack up yesterday, so as a replacement …
Edinburgh Man #110
We’re back! Copacetic! Last week’s annoying cough and sore throat has (more or less) passed, so the podcast returns for another exciting meander through an eclectic mix of new music. Recently I’ve been …
Edinburgh Man #109
Croaky throat, sniffy nose, seeping eye. I’m a picture of health this week. As a result I try (and naturally fail) to limit the chat to the bare essentials. Who would have thought? On tonight’s podcast; punk …
Edinburgh Man #108
Again with the 8pm podcast. Another early one. I think it’s safe to assume that the “usual time” for the live podcast is now 8pm UK time. That is until Edinburgh Man Jr’s sleeping patterns change …
Edinburgh Man #107
Guess what? Small child nighttime activities mean it’s another rambling, shambolic, sleep deprived podcast. On top of this, I’m feeling somewhat dodgy thanks to some ill-advised “nacho” bean …
Edinburgh Man #106
Edinburgh Man Jr is adopting a new routine which clashes with the normal time of 9pm for the live podcast, so today’s show was recorded an hour earlier at 8pm. I wondered if anyone would listen… or rather, …
Edinburgh Man #105
A special early evening podcast. This probably meant no-one listened live… although since I’m writing this blurb over my lunch hour on Thursday afternoon, who knows. Perhaps the technology failed and there …
Edinburgh Man #104
The podcast returns! And only just. I’d forgotten that I’d wiped my laptop between this show and the one a month ago. Unfortunately not only had I lost all the settings, but I also failed to even install the …
Edinburgh Man #103
This seemed like a good idea at the time. Ah who am I kidding, it never seemed like a good idea. Edinburgh Man Jr has developed a rather avant garde sleeping pattern over the last week which has reduced the amount of …
Edinburgh Man #102
After last week’s rambling debacle I tried to be more professional this week. I made notes and everything. Did I pull it off..? Well, probably not. Turns out the end result is pretty much the same with or without …
Edinburgh Man #101
Ahem. A particularly rambling podcast tonight. So what’s new, you say, etc, etc. I think my brain is probably still reeling from the fantastic Meursault gig on Saturday night at the Queen’s Hall in Edinburgh. …
Edinburgh Man #100
Was it really just a couple of days ago that I was standing in the sun on the “Home & Away” beach some 10,000 miles away? And now here I am in a rainy (although warm and humid for whatever that’s …
