Our guest this week is the one and only Mickey Bradley, bass player, broadcaster, and all-round raconteur from sunny Derry. We dive into the early days of The Undertones, Terry Hooley's Good Vibrations label, death threats against Joe Strummer, and the eternal question of whether bands need "the" in their name.
