ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Very keen to hear a recommendation / find so many crime books are awful - when they’re good there great but … can you recommend a couple of sure things? 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I loved this album so much! Thanks for the reminder. Quietus never lets you down 120
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 19/09/2026👏👏👏even as a casual fan I can see that you’re right 001
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Melody maker was something quite special during these years. The LRB playlist is particularly good at mirroring the book - lots of noise and drift 021
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I think (and hope) you know how much they have been loved 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 05/09/2026That’s an amazing playlist - leans right into the noise and drift aspects of your book 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 26/08/2026ECDF! Also, for what it’s worth, an amazing vinyl edit because the third section is nowhere near as good as the first two parts. 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 23/08/2026I think they are suggesting that if ‘fuck all’ were to have a value between 0 and 1… 310
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 18/08/2026BAFTA Boy is the funniest thing I have seen, have literally cried for ten minutes 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 15/08/2026I know this may be your last Edinburgh but it sounds like you’ve really enjoyed it and people have enjoyed you. And not even a high backed armchair in sight 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 12/08/2026*puts colander back in the cupboard* 050
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 23/07/2026That would be amazing! Good shout out from Simon Reynolds in latest book too 100
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Which is why they were perfect in so many ways 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 21/07/2026He’s a well loved happy dog. Take care 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 03/07/2026Just at a gig seeing Alison Cotton and reading your book and someone else came over to say how they had just finished it, and we both agreed it is excellent! He recommended Seefeel to follow up, I went for big black 110
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Excellent thread - really challenged my assumptions, thank you 011
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Unfortunately James Delingpole has actually claimed that many times on his podcast 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Best wishes and thanks for Craven Newsround 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 18/06/2026If you watch Irene Handl when she exits this scene you can see her start to close the door and realise she’s got it wrong and change her mind. I’ve seen this film too many times I suspect 020
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Worth the subscription just for this! Thank you 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 17/06/2026Your book just arrived, and very pleased to see in Lost Treasures that Happy Flowers were listed! 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 16/06/2026My A level English teacher told me, in 1985, that Martin Amis was not real, but was in fact his dad having a laugh with the anagram I’m Martians. I swapped to sociology 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Just got a ticket for the Holloway gig after Stewart Lee recommendation - v excited! 120
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Exciting! Will check out Angst. Is the hidden film Hidden (1987, 2015, 2022) or something else? 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 03/06/2026100% correct. Apart from the vowel inclusion 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Is that the one where he starts speaking about Wagner like it’s Game of Thrones, really getting caught up in the mythology of it all? 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 23/05/2026And the answer is…? (Only other mention I can think of is Walrus and Carpenter) 000
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Whoever excerpted those Pieces of Hancock albums did an amazing job - the East Cheam Drama Festival is a perfect edit 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Just realised that I’ve never heard the end of this! Only listened to the Pieces of Hancock excerpt - will rectify today and then listen to your take on it all - thanks as always! 110
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 19/05/2026So pleased to have this on order - Energy Flash is one of the most exciting books I’ve ever read - thanks 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Wolverines surprised me. Only around 70 - 80cm. Was expecting something the size of a Wolf at the very least 120
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Always impressive to openly share when you’ve changed your mind or reconsidered - thanks for that 010
ottopollock.bsky.social @ottopollock.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Sorry about that - maybe rewatch that Trump clipped you shared? Looks like things might improve… 000
