    High fives all round! Welcome to the 3 Is The Magic Number podcast, the podcast that asks its guests for their Top 3 favourite things in any subject of their choosing. It’s really rather mega, so please do make sure you subscribe as we return each Monday.

    This is Episode 3, Season 3 and this week our guest is Ryan Richards, drummer of Funeral for a Friend, as well as super duper manager extraordinaire at Future History Management.

    The wonderful Welsh human brings all manner of banter and chat around his subject, which is his ‘Top 3 British Comedies’. What did he go for? What were his reasons? Is this an episode where three gents just endlessly throw quotes at each other? You’ll just have to listen to make sure…

  • Jacob Givens on his Top 3 Songs you didn't know were Covers
    Mar 3 2025

    Just like a magical boomerang, we are back! Welcome to 3 Is The Magic Number, the podcast that asks its guests for their Top 3 favourite things in any subject of their choosing. That sounds good, right? Well, make sure you subscribe as we return each Monday.

    This is Episode 2, Season 3 and this week our guest is (takes deep breath) actor, writer, comedian, musician, podcaster, social media legend…(breathes out), Mr Jacob Givens! He is from the USA don’t you know.

    Jacob comes with the chat for hosts Matt and Remfry, and his Top 3 subject is a real winner. You like music, we like music, Jacob REALLY likes music, and his subject is ‘Top 3 songs you didn’t know were covers’. BOOM! Take it all in, and go push play now! The trio discuss a whole host of great (and not great) cover versions, but focus on those few that are SO good, it’s almost unbelievable to find out these artists didn’t write them in the first place.

    We hope you enjoy this episode and this podcast, if you want to support it and us, please do follow us on social media (all 3magicnumberpod), from Instagram to Tik Tok, Youtube to Bluesky (but not X, because it's awful). If you also have a spare moment, please do give us a rating, like, subscribe, heck maybe even leave us a nice comment if you see fit.

    Some podcast housekeeping now, and to make a more streamlined podcast, the recommendation corner has now been shelved and placed on a leave of absence…maybe it will be back, who knows.
