Hamish & Andy’s Remembering Project returns for a new season on LiSTNR for 12 episodes.
For season six, Hamish Blake and Andy Lee listen further back to their archive of more than 2,500 shows and, for the very first time, revisit and re-listen to their original demo tape, with both having very mixed feelings about hearing it.
In the season’s first episode, the pair listen back to two incredible moments from their radio days. One is the first time that Jack Post (aka ‘Cackling Jack’) appears on the show, and unsurprisingly, he is accused of weaselling! Plus, they revisit the blooper, which they both agree is one of their favourite radio moments of all time!
This season also ‘remembers’ Blake and Lee’s epic adventure of taking a convertible car through a car wash, the birth of ‘Napkin Ninja’, Blake’s psychic dreaming ability and their final performance as a band. In some more poignant moments, Blake gets sentimental as they listen back to voicemails from his late Grandma Moosie, and the boys remember what a pivotal part of the radio show she played for many years.
Reflecting on the new season, Lee said: “This season is a rollercoaster of laughs and emotions. We were especially hesitant to listen to our first-ever demo tape because we honestly couldn’t remember how it would sound. It definitely made us question how we ever thought we could make a career out of radio!”
Sam Cavanagh, LiSTNR Original Podcasts head of entertainment and culture, said: “Once again the boys have gone deep into the archives to pull out some absolutely legendary moments from more than 20 years of shows, but it doesn’t get better than hearing their very first demo tape. I think the boys’ reaction will surprise and delight people. New episodes of the Hamish & Andy podcast will return in 2025, but in the meantime, fans can join in as the boys reminisce on what helped forge their incredible partnership.”
