Pulp appeared on World Cafe today, they recorded versions of "Tina", "Grown Ups", "Seconds" and "Slow Jam" and there is an interview with Jarvis. I'm fairly certain that Jarvis appeared on this years ago.
You can listen here (http://playlist.worldcafe.org/world-cafe-playlist-09-19-2025-pulp/).
If anyone knows how to rip it then I'm happy to include on my website.

Ooh ! Seconds again, yes please!
And I'm always up for a version of Slow Jam...

Ah man, that was great. The most stripped-down we've heard these songs in a recorded way, nice to hear how good they can be with the strings toned down a little and no Elysians. The vocals were a little quiet though and Jarvis a bit late with the start of Tina and Seconds! Top choice of songs and the interviewer had great questions and some thoughtful Jarv answers. More please! (Tiny Desk video session?)

Yes, I totally agree that they are very stripped-down versions. Great performances though.
This is now available on my website (https://feelingcalledlive.co.uk/2025/09/20/2025-09-19-pulp-on-the-radio-wxpn-npr-usa-world-cafe/)

Thanks for sharing those, and for splitting - very pleased to snag a copy of Seconds.

The version of Seconds is pretty special. I think its Emma's BVs that really elevates it

I think Tiny Desk is done by NPR so sorry if I got hopes up of a separate (video) session, it must have been this one.

Love this session. Kind of takes me back to the Mark Radcliffe and Hit the North sessions - can't beat the buzz of a small band in a room together, flying by the seat of their pants and going straight to air, warts and all. This is hardcore!
