Well said, Nozstock is a gem and it's so sad that it can no longer run. Big love for sticking to your values and ethos, but we're gonna miss you.

My bags already packed for this year's 1. Dead gutted it's the last 1 as its such a good festival probably my favourite I've been to over the years. Glad to hear it isn't the end and day events will go on.

First time listening to this podcast and first time I've ever heard an interviewer tell an organiser that they didn't like the lineup. Wow.

@TheUKFestivalPodcast I'm not sure it's about being proven right or wrong, rather about treating your guests with a bit more respect when they agree to cone on your podcast.... which lets be honest woukd be absolutely nothing without them
