Join the Garden St Boys as they embark on a podcast adventure! Each week Kieran Boyd, Nicholas Howell and Hayden Wright improvise AN ENTIRE MOVIE – follow the boys on Twitter and like them on Facebook to have your suggestions included in the show.
Every week we break down a hip hop track bar-by-bar in an effort to help listeners (and ourselves) get a better understanding of what it all means. One person chooses the song and researches it, while the others go in blind. At the end of each episode an arbitrary rating is given to the song, hence the title of the show.
Comedians Tom O'Mahony and Owen Colgan delivery a weekly dose of much needed (and vaguely informed)advice, facts and craic
