The Damnation Debrief

It’s 2026 and Gav and James are ready to go again but there’s one small festive task to wrap up… the best albums of 2025. Surely they agree on most of the top ten, right? Right? We go again, every Thursday morning.

Maybe it’s the post-tour blues, maybe it’s reaching 100 episodes or maybe it’s just the spirit of Christmas… Whatever the reason, Gav and James bare their souls in an unusually personal pod, to tackle the highs and lows of their festive tour and the achievement of reaching the pod milestone. We go again, every Thursday morning.

While James basked in the glory (and ticket sales) following the outrageous ATG headliners announcement, Gav went on his travels for live music thrills. And it’s tougher to be more thrilling than a trip to London to see the mighty Radiohead, back to Glasgow for a triple whammy of LLNN, Pupil Slicer and Worn Out before an historic Kneecap performance at a sold out, 14,000 cap Hydro. Before all that though, what’s the early Xmas treat 2 Promoters have in store for listeners? Buy y...

The ATG headliners have been announced and they are belters. Right from the top of the page one wish list: Primus, Chelsea Wolfe and Cult of Luna & Julie Christmas performing Mariner. Gav and a very smug feeling James get into the details behind the treble coup. Tour Tickets: www.seetickets.com/tour/2-promoters-1-pod We go again, every Thursday morning.

Gav might be in Egypt but it takes more than a £1,000, six-hour EasyJet flight seated beside a sweet racist Scottish granny to stop the man from fulfilling his pod duties. So from the luxury of a personal business suite inside a “palace” the boys get back to work, talking Scotland’s making the World Cup, Kneecap’s unbelievable hospitality and the “page one” ATG headliners.

Damnation’s 20th birthday bash was a metal party for the history books. Jaw-dropping performances, production so good it was head scratching and a guy who shat the bed. James, Gav and Damnation’s trusted lieutenant, Dr Paul Farrington, climb out of their hangovers to discuss the weekend that was.

James is back from his holiday looking sun-kissed and relaxed, Gav on the other hand is deep in the festival tumble dryer. Is it enjoyable to see the world’s least stressed man actually stressed, or is it weirdly disconcerting? Tune in to find out. As well as going deep on the final Damnation plans, the boys cover topics including the Trees & ATG band announcements, the Encyclopedia Metallica and the next manager of Celtic. Blurb written by James (for the first time ever. That’s how st...
