Hi, I co-run No Goblin with Panzer and our wonderful team. Sometimes I stream weird games too.


...but the bit that always sticks in my head is two paragraphs about naming things:

Morrisey has undoubtedly come up with some of the wittiest titles of the decade. “Shakespeare’s Sister”, “Girlfriend In A Coma” or “William It Was Really Nothing” are classic. However, with titles like these he will always be guaranteed a non Top Five placing.
We made the mistake of calling our Number One “Doctorin’ The Tardis”. Obviously, we thought it a clever play on Coldcut’s “Doctorin the House”. We had the title before we made the record. If we had had our wits about us we should have changed it to plain “Doctor Who” or at least “Hey! Doctor Who”. Us trying to be witty- clever must have lost us a-few all important sales.

This has lived rent free in my brain for decades, but I'm thinking about it extra hard today as I read about what's coming out and being announced over the next week or so.
