The Full Circle: Linking Songs with Musicians & Friends
DC
Frequency: 1 episode/7d. Total Eps: 58
The Full Circle is a music themed podcast with each song having a link to the previous song, and the last song linking back to the first song, hence completing The Full Circle. Links can be factual, personal and can also have one common theme, (nearly) anything goes! The show is hosted by DC, who is a massive music fan, with a huge interest in live music, festivals & discovering new artists, and also an NHS working doctor, specialising in Psychiatry.
Episodes feature musicians, mates and my partner Abi linking songs together, with the occasional solo episode.
As The Full Circle begins its second season, roughly every other week, DC will review some of his favourite albums over the years, and possibly some future releases too! The Full Circle will be DC's five favourite songs from that album.
Unfortunately, copyright rules stop me from playing the songs on the show, but playlist of the songs are available on each episode description.
In between The Full Circle and general chat, there are also fun features such as "Would You Rather", quizzes tailored to the guest and the solo shows also features the now legendary "Abid's Words of Wisdom".
As a Psychiatry Doctor, DC also invites guests to talk about their own Mental Health experiences if they wish, and encourage others to reach out, if they are experiencing their own mental health difficulties.

My Honest Opinion On Download Festival 2026 Line-Up, Why No Full Circle Or Other Features This Week, Returns Back To Normal Next Week!
Season 1 · Episode 28
lundi 10 novembre 2025 • Duration 05:30
This week's Full Circle episode is a short one... and features no Full Circle haha!
I'm so sorry... unfortunately due to logistics, a full episode of The Full Circle cannot be released this week boo!
However please do listen to a 5 minute special recorded in Japan the day before release on my phone giving my opinion on the Download Festival 2026 Line-Up! What are your thoughts?
Normal service (hopefully!) resumes next week! Thank you for the support as always!

What They Don't Tell You When Making A Podcast, Would You Rather Live Music Edition & Abid's Words of Wisdom!
Season 1 · Episode 27
lundi 3 novembre 2025 • Duration 41:32
Wow, I cannot believe it has been 6 months since The Full Circle started in its podcast form! What an incredible journey so far, and thank you for supporting the show; it means so much!
Whilst The Full Circle was previously on student radio and Facebook Live, there are definitely some differences doing it as a podcast! I share my feelings about this, and the extra things to consider when making a podcast, and just content creating in general.
I also answer some tough Would You Rather questions which are live music related: some incredibly tough choices!
Abid's Words of Wisdom makes its triumphant return this week! I hope you weren't having wisdom withdrawals before this! What did the wise one share this week?
And of course, The Full Circle, this week ranging from One Ok Rock to Bring Me The Horizon!

Frank Turner is the special guest on this week's Full Circle! He is an incredible musician who has released 10 albums under his own name, and has also topped the UK Album Charts!

He is also an ambassador for CALM (campaign against living miserably).
We spoke about:
- How touring went in 2025 and speaking about the returning Million Dead prior to completing their (final?!) UK tour in December 2025!
Buy tickets for Frank Turner's solo shows for 2026 and beyond: https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/frank-turner-the-sleeping-souls-tickets/artist/1608175
- He answered some tough Would You Rather questions, including if he'd played the same venue forever with a different setlist every time, or different venues forever with the same setlist every time!
- He also played Which Frank said this? A game where he had to figure out if he, Frank Turner, said a particular quote in a previous interview or if it was his friend, fellow musician, and current touring singer for Sex Pistols (and also someone others have confused him with), Frank Carter!
- And of course, Frank makes his Full Circle, ranging from Million Dead to Descendents!
