🎙️ Hola amigos—it’s MarshyCast time again!

After a whirlwind week on the radio (and what felt like the last taste of summer 🌞), I’ve got another packed episode for you. As always, you can find plenty more of my Portsmouth-based interviews on the Express FM website, and extra clips, videos, and even my Top 10 Lead Singers of All Time list over on my socials. But let’s get into this week’s guests—three absolute gems:

✨ Max Fox – Golden Buzzer winner on Britain’s Got Talent and director of Cirque: The Greatest Show – Reimagined. We chat about why failure was key to his show’s success, and how taking a chance (and begging Simon Cowell!) changed everything.

🔬 Dr Richard Shepherd – Britain’s leading forensic pathologist, on tour with Time of Death: More Unnatural Causes. We discuss the reality of his job, his work on high-profile cases (including a certain princess), and whether audiences need a strong stomach to see his show live.

🎶 Beaky – from legendary 60s group Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich. He takes us back to the birth of rock ‘n’ roll, shares stories from their heyday (when some even said they rivalled The Beatles & Stones), and tells us why he still loves performing—at 80 years old!

Muchas gracias for listening—don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share. I’ll be back next week with another brilliantly random mix of guests. And in the words of Mark Wahlberg… say hello to your mother for me, OK?
