Charlie is joined for the second episode this week by three of the lads from one of his favourite bands about just now — The Rants. Logan and Shay jump on for a chat about how they came together, where the name came from, and the influences that have shaped their sound.

We dive into their debut EP Ode To a Broken Soul, the stories behind them, and which songs they love playing most live. We also talk about their favourite gigs so far, highlights from a massive year, and their big slot at Tenement Trail next month alongside the likes of Dead Pony, Gallus and Callum Stewart.

Of course, it wouldn’t be the podcast without some football chat. We cover childhood memories, who they support, Scotland’s latest games, which stadium they’d play halftime at, and even compare each band member to a footballer. There’s also the all-important question: if The Rants were a five-a-side team, who’s scoring goals, who’s stuck in nets, and who’s definitely getting sent off?

We wrap it all up with some quick-fire questions, listener Q’s, and a good old rant about the modern game.

Plenty of laughs, music, and football chat in this one — make sure to follow The Rants on Instagram and Spotify, and get stuck in.
