Edinburgh Man in Sydney
Again, apologies for the lateness of this podcast post. I've been way too busy enjoying myself. I'm also running on cellular data only, so let's hope I don't hit my limit before clicking on "save". Today's podcast …

Edinburgh Man in Melbourne
A podcast! From Melbourne! Apologies for the slowness of getting this recorded and uploaded. Jeg-lag, season-lag, expensive and unreliable Internet connections, and small child logistics. All these and more …
Edinburgh Man #99
This podcast was a bit of an experiment, at least in the technical sense. I recorded and edited it on an iPhone using a new little microphone. The reason for doing this was basically to see if it would be possible. That …
Edinburgh Man #98
I bit the bullet and bought a Kindle. This is mostly as a result of an impending flight and a desire to keep my carry-on baggage to a minimum. My feelings about digital downloads run hot and cold. I have an affinity for …
Edinburgh Man #97
Last week’s podcast was a bit of a failure, at least in technical terms. I suspect I had a brain fart that resulted in me muting my microphone WHILE TALKING. Outrageously unprofessional I know. The bit you missed …
Edinburgh Man #96
The podcast is back! Again! After last week’s illness the show returns, with a technical bump. Something went wrong with the audio during tonight’s show. If you were listening live there was a 2 minute period …
Edinburgh Man #95
And we’re back! Apologies for the music repeat show last week. A 24 hour virus invaded the house and podcast duties had to be set aside for parental duties for at least a day. The slightly annoying thing was that …
Edinburgh Man #94
It’s the emergency broadcast system… Something has gone wrong today. Illness or Internet probably. No matter. I had this spare podcast up my sleeve! Nothing new on today’s show, we stumble through the …
Edinburgh Man #93
Imagine being ill on Record Store Day. Outrageous. This can’t happen again. I spent most of the weekend and the start of the week in bed, rather pathetically with just a cold. In my defence, it was a horrible cold. …
Edinburgh Man #92
I wrote the rest of this blog post the morning before the show. It’s almost as if I jinxed it with the opening sentence… Shockingly it all seems to be coming together. Since last weeks podcast Edinburgh Man …
Edinburgh Man #91
Pick. Scan. Edit. Return. Pick. Scan. Edit. Return… I’ve been cataloguing my vinyl for the last week. I downloaded a cool iPhone app called MyStuff2 (I’m not sure if the 2 is important or not… I …
Edinburgh Man #90
Over and over again. I may have said during last week’s show that I already had sorted out the playlist for tonight’s show. Normally I choose the playlist a day or two before the podcast and listen to it a …
Edinburgh Man #89
Getting ready for this week’s podcast was a bit of a trial. I had to tidy away the Sega Saturn from the desk and get the microphone set up instead… Regular listeners to the show may be aware of my retro …
Edinburgh Man #88
So. I got up early this morning… well, actually it was an enforced rise of sorts. I sorted out the playlist for tonight’s show and wrote this blog post. Unfortunately, on the show itself, I sort of went off …
Edinburgh Man #87
A special live podcast! I know what you’re saying, the podcast is always live. Well, this time all the tracks are live tracks too. I mean, not live, live. But pre-recorded live. You get the idea. There have been a …
Edinburgh Man #86
Oops. It seems that I have hidden my “Soundcloud” label on my Gmail since the start of the year. This wouldn’t be particularly problematic if it wasn’t for the fact that people regularly send me …
Edinburgh Man #85
Payback, perhaps? The nighttime routine dictated by Edinburgh Man Jr has taken a rather random turn this last week. Possibly due to the fact Edinrbugh Man Sr had the audacity to go to a gig on Saturday night. However, as …
Edinburgh Man #84
It’s that all important podcast number eighty four! Actually, if you include all those “special” episodes that didn’t have a number, I have a feeling that this is podcast 100. What to do for such …
Edinburgh Man #83
Firstly, an apology. I seem to have been playing a few tracks by the same bands for the last few weeks, and tonight’s show is no exception. Actually, it’s only half an apology, because they are all great …
Edinburgh Man #82
The second podcast of the year, and I’m starting to find my feet a little bit. Due to the pressures of time, however, we’re still flying without any notes. But we wouldn’t have it any other way. In a …
Edinburgh Man #81
It seems like ages since I did one of these.... I mean, it is ages. A whole month of podcast paternity leave. Last year I took January off from podcasting and returned refreshed. I'm not sure if the same can be said for …
Best of 2011 - Part 2
It's the last podcast of the year, time to crack open the Champagne and listen to the second part of the best tracks of 2011, as played on the show, and as voted by listeners of the podcast. Loads of great music on the …
Best of 2011 - Part 1
It's Christmas! And on the podcast that can only mean one thing - it's the best tracks of the year, as played on the show, and as voted by the listeners... and me. In fact, this year both my list and the results of the …
Edinburgh Man #80
I wish I could blame the technical faux pas on the live version of today's podcast on the fact the batteries for my mouse ran out partway through, but the fact is that I muted the music and failed to unmute my …
