'Libraries gave us power' is one of the most iconic lines sang by the Manic Street Preachers, but did you know that the line originally went 'The Moon Under Water gave us pints'? Well, we know it to be true because that's what this week's guest told us (and he's bound to know); it's music journalist and author Simon Price!
Simon is an expert on pretty much everything to do with music, and his biography on the Manics entitled Everything was at one point the fastest selling rock book of all time. However, the best thing about Simon is his love for pubs. He's a seasoned veteran of the UK pub scene, and there's no doubt that his very own 'Pub of the Mind' will be one for the ages.

Suzi Gage - The Big Egg (Part 2)
*This is part 2 of Suzi Gage’s episode. Though you are free to listen in whichever order you so desire we really do recommend listening to part 1 first or things might be slightly confusing*
"Doctor Doctor, I feel like a pint of ale.'. 'Well get yourself over to The Moon Under Water then!'. Just a little joke there for you, and although it might seem totally random it actually ties in perfectly to this week's guest... it's Dr Suzi Gage!
Suzi is a psychologist, broadcaster, author and host of the podcast Say Why To Drugs. She's also appeared on Scroobius Pip's Distraction Pieces, so may very well be familiar to a lot of you. But most exciting of all... she is a HUGE pub fan. She's known Robin and Landlord John for a good few years now, so hopefully she has a tale or two to tell."
