WE'RE BACK! DID YOU MISS US? On holiday last week, I decided I couldn't bear to take time away from relaxing to talk about a crappy selection of pop songs...and this week's not much better. Luckily, Ronan Keating decided to make the week worth it by doing one of the most absurd pieces of promotional tie-in I have ever seen. (Maybe he should have taken his own advice when he said that you say it best when they say nothing at all...) Elsewhere of the podcast where every week we're celebrating the music of the 00s one top 40 at a time: Why are rappers so obsessed with the Holiday Inn? Which trance DJ has a Dutch equivalent of an OBE? Which band's bassist's house once got burned down by a drug dealer? Answers to all those questions plus the best and worst of pop music this time two decades ago. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
