If there was a Hollywood Walk of Kick Ass, Chuck Norris would have two fists planted in the cement. His films focus on martial arts, high octane action and don't bother much with introspection, romance or the multiverse. So not all bad. What is his legacy? How do his films compare to the big budget major studio fare of Schwarzenegger and Stallone? And just how did Norris become an internet meme sensation?

Discussing all this and more, we even recommend a Chuck Norris film you could watch with the family, especially if your family enjoy seeing stuff getting blown up and bad guys getting kicked through doors.

It's been 14 years since singer-songwriter Gary C Williams released his last single, Three Cheers For the Underdog, as Mr Gary C. But with the release of new music in March, his future is looking bright. Gary joined us in the 5282 studio recently to discuss his early days as a musician in bands, his influences, solo career, and the prolonged search for a title that truly captures the spirit of his upcoming mini‑album.

Your monthly delve into all that's culturally unmissable is back! Here's our comprehensive look at the best in music, film, streaming and even a book review. Presented by Rob, Phil, Dave and Kevin.

With Project Hail Mary filling the mainstream slot, Bi Gan's Resurrection occupying the fringe, and a look at The Rise and Fall of the Madchester scene, we also dig deep into folk, jazz, blues and alternative, with the likes of Holly Golightly, Katherine Priddy, Eric Bibb, Miles Davis, Willow and Gorillaz. Plus much more!

Just don't ask Dave about the 10-gallon hat in the corner of the studio, which might have been left behind after our feature on Spaghetti Westerns. Or in another universe, it might be Dave's way of telling us he's finally embracing Country Music.
