The Cardboard Explosive (Andy Hull from Manchester Orchestra)

Leave out a mince pie and a glass of cider, as Gabe Cook, Grant
Hutchison and Martyn Goodwin-Sharman slide down the chimney of
the Neutral Cider Hotel!



After some time off, the boys felt that a one off was the only
call to make for you, the listener! They’ve been counting down
the seconds it seems, Gabe’s been on the tax filing, Martyn has
been with friends of the show Little Pomona for harvest, and
Grant has been running two businesses whilst chugging the oatnog!
Producer Scott has been getting paid to produce an alternative
reality version of the hotel, featuring a sport the guys are
unsure of.


Gabe and Grant discuss ciders they’ve made and Martyn reveals a
secret identity before moving on. 


For this special Christmas episode, the guys head back to the
world of music to talk with the singer and songwriter from
Manchester Orchestra, Mr. Andy Hull. With a new album released
this year (The Million Masks Of God) and fresh from a recent US
tour, the guys have a great conversation covering evertyhing from
the anxiety of touring during a pandemic, doubting music,
collaborating with Scott from Frightened Rabbit on the song
"Architect," cider in Atlanta, sight-seeing in Hull (and the
famous Hull accent) to what Andy's music means to a certain
hotelier!


Then the guys discuss Christmas traditions highlighting some of
the ciders they plan to drink on Christmas including Burrow Hill,
Little Pomona, Braanland, Eve’s Cidery, Oliver’s cider, Angry
Orchard, Westcounty Cider and
