We've got a great guest this week: acclaimed actor, writer, director and all-round queen of British black comedy, the delightful Alice Lowe.

Maverick comedian, actor, broadcaster and movie maker Tom Green joins Matt for this special episode of Life In The Stocks.

#023 Michael Monroe (Hanoi Rocks/Solo)

1h 27m · Published 15 Aug 15:44

This week's guest on Life In The Stocks is the best kept secret in rock 'n' roll: Mr. Michael Monroe. Michael made his name in the early '80s as the singer in Hanoi Rocks, without whom there would arguably be no Motley Crue or Guns N' Roses. After Hanoi split in 1985, Michael began a solo career that's still going strong three decades later, and over the years he's forged lifelong friendships with a who's who of rock royalty: Alice Cooper, Steven Tyler, Axl Rose, Slash, Lemmy, Dave Grohl, Steven Van Zandt, Ian Hunter, Johnny Thunders, Stiv Bators & Ginger Wildheart...the list is endless, making this an extra special episode with a bonafide rock 'n' roll legend!

#020 Ryan Hamilton (Solo)

1h 37m · Published 24 Jul 21:50

To celebrate this landmark episode of the podcast, Life In The Stocks brings you its most vulnerable conversation yet. The guest is Ryan Hamilton, formerly of Smile Smile & People On Vacation and now a solo artist in his own right. Even if you don't know Ryan's music you'll want to hear his story. Think Rumours-era Fleetwood Mac but with less cocaine - although Ryan did once smoke a joint with Woody Harrelson. It's a story of friendship, adultery and betrayal, and of second chances, hope and joy. Enjoy!

#017 Shaun Ryder (Happy Mondays/Black Grape)

1h 12m · Published 26 Jun 08:45

Shaun Ryder is a British institution, recognised as much for his larger than life persona and excessive drug use as for his unique work in Black Grape and the rave era-defining Happy Mondays. He's slowed down the partying in recent years and the hell raising days are a thing of the past, but with new music from both Black Grape and Happy Mondays on the way, Ryder's in the best shape of his life and the future looks brighter than ever for our kid. Someone call the cops!!!

#016 Steve Diggle (Buzzcocks)

1h 31m · Published 15 Jun 15:24

Steve Diggle plays guitar, writes songs and occasionally sings in legendary Manchester punk band the Buzzcocks. He's the yin to frontman Pete Shelley's yang, and during his 62 years on the planet he's seen and done an awful lot - and he's still got the attitude and stamina of a man half his age. He's also collected a fair few stories along the way, from touring with The Clash on the White Riot Tour to playing shows with Nirvana just days before Kurt Cobain's death. If you have even a passing interest in punk & alternative music, this episode of Life In The Stocks is essential listening.
