    Join us on an extraordinary journey as Michala sits down with Joe Donovan from the band Blossoms, fresh off celebrating their fourth UK number-one album. Joe's infectious enthusiasm brings to life the band's achievements and artistic endeavours, setting the stage for a remarkable narrative.

    We then meander through Joe's family history, uncovering tales that span continents and centuries. From a family-owned haberdashery in Stockport to Jeremiah's stint in Knutsford prison, we start by following the Donovan line back over 200 years.

    The story continues as we delve into the sobering case of William Skerritt in 1838, offering a bleak reflection on the Victorian justice system. As we stitch together these ancestral threads, we encounter a stonemason who led a double life, abandoning his British roots to forge a new path in New York, and stories of redemption, like Burgoyne Southward's transformation from a housebreaker to a night watchman. Don't miss this enthralling episode filled with music and history.
