    Great show, Tim (as usual!). I know you’re always crying out for comments (I don’t like to call whatsit lines, so it’s comments like this for me), so I thought I’d help you out just a little. I’ve been listening to the show for a long time, and enjoyed it almost consistently (for a pretty inconsistent show – don’t mean that in a negative way; your style varies so hugely that it’s hard to pin down, and that’s a good thing!).
    I’ve enjoyed a lot of the mashups, the covers, and the other stuff immensely (and there’s some stuff I’ve just detested – but it’s worth listening to anyway).
    I would consider myself a fan of Radio Clash; one of the main reasons is that I like to think I ‘get’ a lot more of what you’re talking about than the average listener (although I live in South Carolina, I’m from the good old northwest of England – I only moved to the States about four or five years back; so I think I can see both sides!
    Anyway, enough of my boring ramble; love the show – keep it up!

    A-frickin-mazing. This was a great collection of stuff I’ve never heard before… like much of what I hear on your show anyway… but this blew me away.

    I will admit that one of the reasons I don’t listen to much rap other than the … all right, I’ll admit it… Beastie Boys, is because I don’t care for the bling and the hos and the Corvassier. Now, I’ve a whole new arena into which I can delve. Grime strikes me as more old-school style rap, laying down a nice bass beat and working over that. The MC Hawking piece was just hysterical, and the Radio 1 intermixture was … breathtaking… hard to believe that rap could be rap and beautiful all at the same time.

    I’ve been subscribed for a while… I can’t remember exactly how long… and will continue to be hear for more aural stimulation.

    Hi, Tim. Just wanted to pop in and tell you how much I enjoyed Radio Clash 65. Thanks for the shout-out and for dropping in the MC Hawking track. I know theme shows generally force you away from your mashup focus, but I think they are a noble diversion.

    MC Lars and Smoosh were both on my short list of music to check out, as was grime in general. Interestingly enough the Smooth E and 50 Pence tracks were my favorites. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so much at a podcast as I did during the first verse of “In da Pub.”

    At any rate, consider me another satisfied customer anxiously awaiting next week’s show. Until then, I too will be in the pub.

    Thanks for the long-distance warm fuzzies. 🙂 I’m getting better day by day. That cursed gall bladder will never hurt me or any of you EVER AGAIN.

    Great show! Definitely a few things here that I’ll need to investigate further.

    I have been meaning to leave a comment about this show as it has been my favorite so far!

    The last track is incredible and I even went back to have a look at the other performances that were done and that one was the best. But even without the visual, to hear that girl feel it the way she did – fantastic. I have to say,

    Oh yeah – I can’t t thank you enough for the shout out at the end! 🙂
