Fri, 05 Feb 2021 - 1h 15min - 43 - Is that a Christmas Tree or a dead body in your car?
This week it's all about keeping it local with stories from where we live. Paula talks about the legendry Crystal Palace Bowl and Bob Marley & The Wailers performance. Angela heads across the Thames, back to Canning Town in East London where she grew up to tell us about the famous Bridge House music venue and the band The Cockney Rejects and how football hooligans and the right wing momentarily ruined their career.
New music this week is from Misled Convoy X Kate Five with 'Apply The Pressure' and 'Alright Lads' by Nervous Twitch.

Fri, 11 Dec 2020 - 1h 12min - 38 - Ahoy Matey!
Ahoy Matey! This week we tell you the story of Pirate Radio Station, Radio Caroline with special guest Charlie Ashcroft from Amazing Radio.
Radio Caroline which launched in the 60s in reaction to the monopoly of the BBC and the major labels. The station took residency on a boat in the sea just outside British territory and went on to be one of the biggest stations in the UK, much to the digust of the labels and the governments. We dig into the real story of the boat that rocked, including murder, theft, storms and spliffs.
Special thanks to our guest this week, Charlie Ashcroft: https://amazingradio.com/shows/audition/poll

Fri, 04 Dec 2020 - 1h 34min - 37 - Badgering the witness
This week’s theme is songs about masturbation including Cindy Laupers ‘She Bop’, Orgasm Addict by Buzzcocks, I touch myself by Divinyls, B.O.B by Macy Gray and Billy Idol’s Dancing with myself. We discuss the back stories to these songs and the impact they had for the bands. From breast cancer awareness to Blue Boy and a few amusing slang terms, this show's packed with some unexpected facts.
We also have lots of new music too. Probably not about masturbation, but songs you really do need to hear, including bands We Three Kings, Dois Padres, Jean Genies Massive Hugs, Hot Wax and Wolfgang Von Vanderghast.

Fri, 23 Oct 2020 - 1h 19min - 31 - Yeah, 1983 baby!
This week Angela and Paula take a ramble back to 1983, deemed as the most exciting year for music in the 80s, and one that would see the launch of many a future legend. We roll up our sleeves and dig into New Orders 'Blue Monday', the birth of Bananarama and their debut album 'Deep Sea Skiving, Madonna's self titled debut 'Madonna' and the single that would see electronic duo, Eurythmics, propelled to great heights with the release of 'Sweet Dreams (Are made of this).
Our new music hot picks this week are by Cross Wires and KIN.

EPISODE 23
Whatever happened to... East 17?
Whatever happened to... Klaxons?
Whatever happened to... Cathy Dennis?
Yep, it's a question that comes up from time to time, people and bands who were once music industry heavy weights who now seem to have faded away... what happened to them? Well, we're about to tell you!
East 17, 90s boy band with a string of hits, sold out tours, more headlines than you can shake a stick out, but just like that, it was gone. What happened to these lads? Well, listen in and you'll find out.
Klaxons produced a massively successful album. Every song seemed like a single. They were refreshingly different from their counter parts, but they seemed to suddenly disappear from the music radar... where did they go?
Cathy Dennis - Solo artist and hitmaker topping the charts in the 90s gave up the public limelight. Where did she go, what did she do? Tune in for the lowdown!
This weeks new music come from New Pagens 'Yellow Room' and Potpourri with 'Dearly Departed'.

Thu, 06 Aug 2020 - 1h 20min - 20 - Invasion of the cabbage patch dolls
This week we're joined by special guest Caffy St Luce, the fairy godmother of rock, as we explore protest songs through the ages. Kerrie takes us back to the 1930s and what is believed to be one of the first protest songs, Strange Fruit sung by Billie Holiday. We also moonwalk back in time to life in 1979 from politics to the launch of the Sony Walkman before landing at the feet of legends The Slits and their song 'Typical Girl'.
Expect random facts and stories of Howard Marks, Manic Street Preachers, Mason and more on that inflatable kayak.
Our music hot picks this week are from Dream Nails and Rosehip Teahouse.

Tue, 21 Jul 2020 - 1h 16min - 18 - What a bright spark... and a complete nut job
This week Angela and Grace tell the story of Phil Spector looking at his early life, his rise to fame, his demise and the murder of Lana Clarkson. It's a rollercoaster ride of the Wall of Sound, inflatable dolls, Christmas kids, and a whole lot more in-between.
Our artist hot picks this week are by Deux Furieuses 'Let them burn' and 1983 by The Tuts.
Please note that Grace's phone line has a bit of background noise. She wasn't standing next to a plane taking off, but more a case of lockdown playing with our phone line quality.

THIS WEEKS SHOW
Lily Allen is an English singer, songwriter and author that has been dragged through the mud in the press. Breakdowns, breakups, award-winning albums, hit singles and tragedy. We take a look at her rise to fame and what was really going on behind the scenes.
Courtney Love, queen of grunge, has been very outspoken and not shy of public spats. We look at some of the more famous feuds and question their validity.

Tue, 28 Apr 2020 - 1h 20min - 7 - I love you Kerrie
Kerrie and Angela cover the stories of Nina Simone, The Sex Pistols and Sid and Nancy in an extended version of the podcast this week.
Nina Simone was an American singer, songwriter, musician and civil rights activist. Known for songs such as 'My baby just cares for me', I love you Porgy' and 'Feeling good', we take a look back to where it all began, the struggle and passion of someone young, gifted and black in the 50s.
Anarchy in the UK, the birth of punk and the tragic tale of Sid and Nancy. We look at the creation of the Sex Pistols and the turbulent lifes of Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen. Accidental deaths, suicide pact gone wrong or murder?
New music featured in this episode is by the bands Tiger Mimic and Skies.

Mon, 20 Apr 2020 - 1h 30min - 6 - Yodelling Yoda
This week Kerrie and Paula talk about the careers of La Roux and Amanda Palmer, finding unexpected parallels between the two, who both stepped away from major labels to explore other ways of creating and releasing music. They also explore the part that crowdfunding has played in changing the way that artists can fund their art by looking at the Amanda Palmer's Kickstarter campaign for her album 'Theatre is Evil'.
