Sounds Like… - Jim & Molly the Cat

APOSTROPHE PODCAST NETWORK
About this episode

“Jim never had any intention of having any pets at all”

 

To be fair to the other household critters (and no, we’re not talking about headlice again!), last week was dogs, so today we have a story about cats. One of our favourite characters, Jim Scoffield, finds a new friend while caring for his cat Molly. And Jess gets into some of the practical and technical aspects of being out on the road with the Vinyl Cafe, recording 60-80 concerts a year. 


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
