In 14 brand-new podcast episodes, curated and hosted by Martin Bull, John dives into the meaning of each song, what was happening within the band at the time, and what was going on in his own life as the music was being created. Each episode features the chosen track plus a wealth of anecdotes—some familiar, many never heard before—woven into the wider context of Fischer-Z’s journey.
