#440 - Square and Interesting (20th Sept 2026)
Wednesday, September 23, 2026 • Duration 02:00:24
You know when this show would have been good to listen to? Yesterday. When it was unseasonably sunny in Sheffield. As it goes, it’s grey and a bit drizzly today. But as we say, we like to play music for almost any occasion.
Once again, no theme this week. There is one long song, and that’s not at the end so you can’t (easily) avoid it. We’re in the market for more long songs. If you know any good ones around the 20 minute mark, hit us up.
As always, if you feel like it please get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!

The Secret Handshake with Louise T | LWSTD-FM
Tuesday, September 15, 2026 • Duration 01:00:05
Evenin’ all. We didn’t do a show last night but we couldn’t leave you without something to tide you over until we’re next on the airwaves.
We’ve pinched a show that we love and that we think you’ll love as well. It’s by friend of the show Louise T and it’s a great monthly show on LWSTD.fm. This was the show that went out on Saturday. It's a doozy, so we wanted you to hear it.
#439 - "Okay, let's try that again, but this time good" (6th Sept 2026)
Wednesday, September 9, 2026 • Duration 02:05:32
This was a new experience for us. Which is impressive as we’re 439 shows into this nonsense. We attempted to do this show a couple of weeks ago but studio gremlins got in the way. So instead of putting it down to a bad job, we’ve regrouped and had another go at it. Is it as good as the 1st time around? Nobody will ever know apart from us. Why has it taken ‘tlll Wednesday morning for an upload? Same answer.

#438 - "Should song titles in full caps be shouted?" (16th August 2026)
Wednesday, August 19, 2026 • Duration 01:59:20
Feels weird uploading this while it’s light. Usually this is more of a nocturnal activity. Much like the show. Sometimes we wonder “should we be more uniform with our uploads?”. It’s not going to happen. Well, it could but truth be told… we’re not sure we’d like that stress. Anyway, here’s the show. Enjoy.

#437 Small Records Vol 11. - Steve Spins Small Things (9th August 2026)
Tuesday, August 11, 2026 • Duration 02:01:18
Step right up for show number four hundred and thirty seven. Another 7 inch special! Steve did this one on his own as he didn’t want to leave you without a show to soundtrack the next batch of hot weather that’s in the post.
It’s 4 sets. A garage rock-ish one. A British beat-ish one. A psychedelic-ish one. And one that’s sorta about heartbreak
Hopefully see you next week, but if we don’t, remember to get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
Another week, another show where one/both presenters complain(s) about being tired. You’d think by now they’d know how to be fully rested for the show.
This show is a deep one. Starts heavy and gets heavier. Enjoy!
Hopefully see you next week, but if we don’t, remember to get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
We all know the show is a vanity project but this week it’s gone next level… it’s all about STEVE! He played records from his birthday. Some from his party, some he got as presents and some he purchased with birthday mon
No show next week due to Tramplines. That doesn't mean you can't get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
#433 - Let's go to town to see what we can find (28th June 2026)
Thursday, July 2, 2026 • Duration 01:59:14
Back in the old studio, for possibly the last time? We’re not sure. Will it matter to you lot? Probably not. All you want is 2 hours of quality radio which you’ve got (eventually). You’ll be pleased/sad* to know there’s no theme this week. Just us, picking songs, talking about songs and other stuff.
As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
#432 - Standard format - 1 bed = this show (14th June 2026)
Tuesday, June 16, 2026 • Duration 02:02:21
Evenin’ all. Or good mornin’. Depending on when you read this. Or if you read it at all. This week’s show had some beats, some guitars, some music from Jamaica and a fair bit of new music. We’ve got our fingers on the pulse. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
