  • Summary

  • Restless Natives is a cult Scottish film from 1985 featuring two scallywags – The Clown & The Wolfman. It’s iconic. Two resourceful rascals who take on the ambitious task of holding-up tourist buses in the Highlands… They were Robin Hood, only Scottish and on the back of a motorbike. Gordon Smart & Martin Compston are sampling that spirit - inspired by The Clown & The Wolfman - and distilling it into a podcast. They are setting themselves lofty ambitions before setting off in pursuit of tasks and goals they have absolutely no right achieving. A bit like their careers in TV, movies, newspapers and radio… Join them as they recount some of their ridiculous scrapes and adventures from the past while they plan even more ambitious, unreachable schemes for the future. Some of them will be achieved and others will crash and burn spectacularly. They’ve got lots to talk about, lots to share with you and nothing but time. As the film once said: “Is this the end of the story or a beginning of a legend?” For advertising opportunities on this podcast email: dax@global.com

    Sep 18 2024

    Alan Edwards is a man with a remarkable story. From being adopted as a child, making his way to India as a 16 year old and ending up in Afghanistan, to rubbing shoulders with the greats, playing football with Bob Marley and working along side names such as David Bowie, The Spice Girls and Paul McCartney, he made a name for himself as the "godfather of British Music PR". And he joins Martin and Gordon in studio for this week's incredible ep of Relentless Namedroppers.
