It's been a bad week for lovers of new music – so it's with delicious irony that Matt Wells and the Media Talk team were booted out of their regular, roomy studio so that an obscure indie band could record a session for our Music Weekly podcast.

Also in the podcast, BBC political editor Nick Robinson gives us his reaction as the leaders' TV debates finally get the go-ahead (with a mere 76 rules and regulations, of course).
