My first weekly podcast!
Hey hey all. As part of my blog for the Huddersfield Examiner, me and Charlotte (my journalistic partner in crime) have recorded a podcast in which we talk about music news and stuff. It’s pretty good, if you get the time, I would bloody love it if you gave it a listen and left a comment or two saying what you think! Thanks! ...

My show's on tonight! Yay!
It is Tuesday. So that means it is time, once more, for MATT WARING’S MIXTAPES! Coming at you live from Radio Hudd tonight at 6. Tune in! You know you want to. With no login or anything it’s even easier than it was in the first place! I’ve got a great show lined up for you today as well. The Classic Cover is a real belter, and the Golden Oldie is arguably one of the greatest pop songs ever written...

Like the Decemberists?
I do. I wrote a review of their new album The King is Dead and it’s on the blog that I write for on the Huddersfield Examiner site. If you could have a read and leave a comment or something, that would be totally brilliant and I’d love you for it! It’s right here! Thanks!

baker-cake asked: 15 points to Gryffindor!
I hate Sundays, is that bad? I never get to relax properly. I wake up too late I think and I really hate waking up late (but I love to sleep forever and ever, Catch 22!)

Who is your favourite band of 2010 and why? Mine's a toss up between Caribou and Arcade Fire. Caribou had an amazing new album and it was just amazing but Arcade Fire's 3rd...

Blogs and sites and stuff and things
YEAH, so anyway. All of us here at uni have a lot of work to do and things, and we have to do a ‘Practical Project’ where we produce something for people to see and that. I’ve managed to get a deal where I’m writing a music blog on Huddersfield’s local paper’s website. It’s here, and if you could all have a read and please maybe possibly definitely leave a...

baker-cake asked: OH HI (get a twinge then groan when you saw it was me? lol)
I've decided I'm going to ask you a question a day to stir things up a little.

What is your perfect Sunday? (5 marks, 10 bonus marks if you can name the film I stole this from...)

baker-cake said: I’m jealous. Not to make you more jealous. He totally just gave me some recommendations. Granted they were for his own records, and he probably just needs the money, but still. Considering that I want to get a job where I get to go around interviewing musicians, I should probably stop myself from getting so giddy every time one talks to me.

I should probably stop getting quite so starstruck at such minor things. I mean, remember that time I got all giddy because someone who does a podcast with some of Kevin Smith’s friends replied to me on Twitter? I got a bit over excited. He tried to tell me he wasn’t a celebrity, but in my eyes he was… Anyway, a similar sort of thing just kind of happened. I absent mindedly said...

bookofpuzzles asked: Sam Mendes and James Bond don't automatically jump together in my head though. I love his films though, so I'm actually pretty excited about it. Let's hope the story and script are decent.!

hamishandthat said: I like the LC graffiti; I like to think it’s for Los Campesinos! I think the chances of it being that would have been heavily based on if you did it or not… Unless…doesn’t Gareth live in Chilcompton or Midsomer Norton or somewhere like that? He could well have come over to Wells one day, saw that bin and thought ‘I know, that needs tagging so that one...

whatswrongwithalittledestruction said: Chocolate doughnuts?! Cooool. They sound yummy. Chocolate doughnuts are the best! They’re so good. They’re like jam or custard doughnuts, except even better because they are filled with chocolate instead! :D Although it’s not really real chocolate. It’s like chocolate custard. But still, it’s so good.

baker-cake said: Not to freak you out, but I got 10p doughnuts in ASDA yesterday! Holy shit! That is INSANE. Crazy coincidence. They are bloody good though. It’s probably a good thing doughnuts weren’t always 10p. I’d buy far too many. And I don’t have any metabolism as it is. Sitting around eating cheap doughnuts all the time probably wouldn’t help much…

Fuck yes. Beat Spurs. It’s weird. We can play really well against, and beat the big clubs, the ones pushing for Champions League, but against the ones that would be lucky to finish in the top half of the table we can’t seem to do anything. Anyway, onwards and upwards. We’ve been bumped up to 11th in the table now. I think. So that’s nice. We’ll probably get knocked...

I’ll philosophise as much as I fucking like pal. Nah, just kidding. That was all I had. I’d rather go and post something very un-worthwhile. About a TV show that you watch for example?  ...
