Another fortnight (has it been? Are you sure?), another episode and while this lockdown might be the biggest slog yet, Sarah and Becky have still uncovered plenty to keep them enthused, not least local parish council meetings. Get your fresh batch of recommendations (Call My Agent, Pretend It's A City and Roma to name a few), before you meet this ep's phenomenal guest and one of our favourite interviewees yet.

Signed to the beloved Chess Club Records and the newest darling of Radio 1, Liverpool's Pixey is one of the most exciting prospects in British music right now. Calling herself "the Indie Britney Spears" and fusing Stone Roses psychedelia with Lana Del Rey type soundscapes, she's not only an exceptional musician, but person too - having nearly died a few years ago, her re-evaluation on life after recovery led to her learning guitar and production from scratch to fulfil her dreams. It's kind of annoying; not only is she incredibly talented, resilient and grounded, she's really funny and nice too!
