Episode 7: Is this the real Highway Patrolman? Hywel Roberts and why music is SO important to our lives

This episode carries a health warning! It's rather funny. We explore if Hywel (rhymes with towel) and his brother were the real characters in Highway Patrolman. Besides, Joe and Frankie does sound better than Hywel and Alan after all. Jeff and Hywel get together live in the E Street Cafe with one mic and a rather amorous dog. It contains multiple references to Bruce of course - but it also covers all kinds of other random stuff from growing up in the North of England, Nebraska the album, which instrument most attracts attention in the street, soundtracks, Stephen King, Half Man Half Biscuit, playing in a band for fun, Jaws, Botheredness (it's not a real word, we know), Jaws again, early memories of the cinema, how the hell do we pronounce his name and even more Jaws......... Every once in a while we like to lighten the mood and this episode will make you chuckle as Jeff and Hywel combine their northern wit to chat casually about just about anything. Listen out at the end for a twist to the E Street Shuffle. To Hywel's dismay - there's 2 quizzes. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jeff-matthews4/message
