Episode 159 – Oasis
Andy and Roger gear up (and grumble) ahead of the much-hyped Oasis reunion tour, navigating the emotional spectrum from teenage giddiness to middle-aged back pain. With general admission tickets in sweaty hands, they debate the wisdom of attending a 31-degree Sydney stadium gig in a thunderstorm.
This episode meanders through Oasis nostalgia, Gen X vs millennial music tastes, public transport trauma, and the curious cultural cachet of pop-up merch stores. Roger muses on the lost art of rock stardom, Andy notes the k-pop infiltration at Westfield, and both reflect on what the crowd might reveal about race, class, and identity politics in 2025.
Also: MAGA hats in Apple stores, Trump 2028 sightings, and the economics of songwriting royalties. Plus, a quickfire round on best Oasis tracks and live moments. Stand by me, indeed.
