If there's one thing pop music needs almost as much as it needs musicians, it's people who won't hear the words "Actually, that's a really bad idea". Terri Hooley was one such man. Record shop owner, record label owner and focal point for Belfast's punk scene, what he lacked in business sense he made up for in passion. Glenn Leyburn and Lisa Barros d'Sa's biopic Good Vibrations tells his unbelievable story.

We've got an expanded cast on the show to celebrate the film, too, with Graham joined by Directors Uncut's Rob and another regular co-host, Mark from We Are Cult. As well as the film, they also describe the odd experience of actors you love starring on shows you don't care about, discuss the films that did - and didn't - get punk right, and invent at least one new musical genre. There are some bad impersonations again, but it's definitely within the spirit of the film this time.

If you'd like to give us five hundred pounds and a photo of The Shangri-Las, why not start small by donating to our Patreon? There are three tiers, and the highest is just £3 - giving you access to Rob's reviews of Asian films that lack a UK distributor, Graham's classic series Doctor Who reviews, our joyous grab-bag of a podcast Last Night..., and a monthly bonus episode of this show. Stay tuned to the end of this podcast to find out what that is this month, and follow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
