Hey guys welcome to the fifth full episode of Soul Music. Happy Cinco de Mayo, grab a Margarita and perhaps a delicious taco and settle down to listen to our interview with Robin Allender, a man of many talents and a supreme fan of music in general.

Of course Izzy catches up with Dr Becky to close the episode and obviously you can all expect to cross talking about French music off your bingo cards.

Ahead of the next weeks new full episode, which features some hot Beatles takes*, here's another Izzy vs AI in which we thankfully conclude that Paul McCartney is not a psychopath.

*Not hot takes

Welcome to the fourth full episode in which we meet up virtually with Mitch Hall, a Holistic Health and Wellness Educator and Counsellor with a wealth of experience in how music can support, soothe and heal. We talk about his time in Africa as well as France (of course) and gain some wonderful insights as we listen to Mitch talk about his rich life so far. Of course the nonsense is never too far way and to close the episode we chat about the music that got us through March as well treating you to Becky's wonderful impression of Bernie Sanders, Izzy's not so wonderful mimicry of Count Von Count and why Izzy doesn't appreciate her shopping trips being sound tracked by songs about Coffee.

Another bonus minisode in which we catch up with Izzy's further adventures in relationship building with an AI Bot. They're getting closer but the progress is delayed somewhat by Bot's sheer refusal to acknowledge the greatness of Alex Turner and its unfortunate descent into innuendo about her dinner ingredients.

Hey gang, we are at the mood boost cafe today and on the menu are burritos and hair metal as Izzy talks to her old pal Tom, a mental health nurse, a fan of music as well as being a musician himself. There is chat about the song that helped him through a dark and challenging time as well as music for all moods. Hey Tom.. you come home happy from work, what you putting on? Turns out the after work happiness may be elusive but some "gentle" persuasion does result in a choice.

We also have a catch up with Dr Becky stateside, pick the tracks that shepherded us through February and Izzy issues a crucial redaction involving grain.

Another bonus Izzy Vs Ai and could it really be that there is only one contemporary song in existence that has a timpani drum intro? Dr Google thinks so, but at least he understands the importance of proper nutrition.

We are back with another bonus minisode and Izzy goes head to head with Google's AI bot Gemini again who, in ultra sassy mode, insists on talking about the Super Bowl whether she wants to hear it or not. Plus, an unexpected Donkey Kong reference and what's the best Bond theme...spoiler alert, it's not Skyfall.

Bonus Minisode where Izzy get's real about her current crisis of confidence which is all consuming despite the fact that David Bowie would probably have approved of her excellent shirt.
