About this listen

It took a while, but like the last bus home on a freezing winter night it got here in the end. Behold the arrival of the Fierce Panda Records podcast, aka Birth. School. ROCK! Death. In each episode an alternative guest joins label boss Simon Williams on the SO sofa to chew through the pawful of hopefully-not-awful songs which have defined their life and career.

  • Episode #8 - Jed Morgans (Hideous Mink, Opus Kink)
    Nov 19 2025
    It’s episode 8 of the fierce panda podcast called Birth. School. ROCK! Death. What can possibly go wrong? Nothing at all as this week magazine editor, label boss and frantic muso Jed Morgans hits the SO sofa. Last week he played his wild saxamaphone onstage in Opus Kink at a rampant Electric Ballroom. Last whenever, his Hideous Mink label released the toweringly glowering ‘Hideous Collective’ compimilation album, chocful of all your latest perverted leftfield loves. And lastly, but never leastly, Tanzana’s ‘Covert’ supercool single is tickling our Scottish indie pinky punk eardrums. Honk Kong, indeed…

  • Episode #7 - Simon Williams (Fierce Panda)
    Nov 10 2025
    It’s the seventh episode of Birth. School. ROCK! Death. and we are smashing through the fourth wall as this week’s Fierce Panda podcast guest is…Simon Williams from Fierce Panda as he prepares to curate the Tonic Music parlour at Shiiine On festival later this week. Jed Morgans from Hideous Mink asks the questions while Simon sits in the hot spot of the sofa to gurgle softly about the highs of ELO and the Farmer’s Boys while merrily misremembering key facts about his own back furry back catalogue. Good times, people. Good times.
