The shallowest deep delve in to the works of Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman continues.

Comedians Emma Crossland and Sam Wilkinson know a bit about Meat Loaf but, as they're rapidly learning, not enough to do a review podcast. Still, they'll give it a good old go.

This episode sees the pair dive into Hot Summer Night and its creepy weird opening dialogue, before getting deep into why the smoky dive bar of Midnight at the Lost and Found would never work in Britain.
