Description

It may have rained every single day in the UK so far this year but we're not letting a few "Messy Little Raindrops" get us down! Attention, Soldiers. We are celebrating Cheryl's second solo album, featuring the hit singles 'Promise This' and 'The Flood'. In case you have 'Amnesia', Joel and David are taking you back to 2010 and 2011 to retrace one hell of a rollercoaster year in the life and career of our Girls Aloud star. Following the triple-platinum-selling success of her debut album, "3 Words", she performs 'Fight For This Love' at the BRIT Awards in 2010 amid marital dramas splashed across the papers. From landing her second British Vogue cover to returning as a judge on "The X Factor" - the most watched TV show in the country - to contracting a life-threatening illness... you really couldn't write the kind of year Cheryl had. Amidst it all, our Storm Flower diva sailed to the top of the charts and delivered a colourful and empowering pop album fitting of a global pop superstar with contributions from Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am, Muni Long, Kelis, Dizzee Rascal and Travie McCoy. Fancy more Chez? We've done a Cheryl "3 Words" episode as well as a whole back catalogue of Girls Aloud's albums. Get them in the queue!

episode Melanie C - Northern Star: Part One [Solo Spice Revisited] artwork

Melanie C - Northern Star: Part One [Solo Spice Revisited]

Since we've had a prelude to a "Sweat"-y Summer courtesy of Our Melanie C; it would be crazy and utterly 'ga ga' to not celebrate the most successful Solo Spice Girl album of all time: "Northern Star". Spice, Sporty and Pop fans unite because we are giving you an epic two-parter of Mel's iconique debut solo album, which soared between 1999 and 2001, with a string of global hit singles including two UK No.1s 'Never Be The Same' feat. Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes and 'I Turn To You'.  This zesty Part One high kicks the journey off in 1998 into 1999 as we follow Melanie's brewing solo career; from the neo-industrial punk rage of 'Goin' Down' to the tender and autobiographical 'Northern Star' single and our album highlights, b-sides, live performances, fashion and style moments. Where Spice Girls were on a hiatus; Melanie C was certainly going for gold, writing and recording with a string of established dead edgeh hitmakers behind records for Madonna's "Ray of Light", Björk, Massive Attack and more. Stay tuned for Part Two coming real soon!

episode The Pussycat Dolls - "PCD" [Revisited] artwork

The Pussycat Dolls - "PCD" [Revisited]

Pop fans, it's time to loosen up them buttons for a big fun nostalgic trip back to The Pussycat Dolls' world! We are revisiting the iconic 2005 debut album "PCD", which gave us a string of iconic hits, music videos and live performances that remain on high rotation 20+ years on! 'Don't Cha', 'Buttons', 'Beep', 'Stickwitu', 'I Don't Need A Man', 'Wait A Minute' - and more including the soundtrack gems like 'Sway'. We're getting into all of that! Plus, Joel and David take you into through the birth and evolution of The Pussycat Dolls - from a modern burlesque show conceptualised by Robin Antin in 1995, through to the celebrity guest performers in the early days (Carmen Electra, Christina Applegate, Christina Aguilera, Gwen Stefani etc) and how they became a full-fledged world dominating pop group. Nicole Scherzinger, Ashley Roberts, Kimberly Wyatt, Carmit Bachar, Jessica Sutta and Melody Thornton were introduced to us as a fun, confident girl gang we all wanted to be part of and aspired to be. From the sexy-meets-street fashion through to the powerful choreography and vocals; they inspired a whole generation of girl groups like KATSEYE and Little Mix. "PCD" featured collaborations with some of the pop R&B world's biggest hitmakers including Timbaland, will.i.am [http://will.i.am/], Cee-Lo Green, Keri Hilson, Diane Warren, Kara Dioguardi, Rich Harrison and more. The Pussycat Dolls are back on tour this summer across North America before coming to the UK and Europe in Autumn for the "PCD Forever" tour! We can't wait.

Atomic Kitten - 25 Years of 'Whole Again' and "Right Now" Album [Revisited]

We're back with an atomic BOOM! for our first proper episode of 2026, celebrating one of Britain's best-selling girl groups of the 2000s. This year marks 25 years of Atomic Kitten's iconic global smash 'Whole Again' and their debut album "Right Now" is now out on vinyl for the first time!  Join Joel and David as they set the time machine for 1999 to 2001, looking back on when we first met Natasha Hamilton, Liz McLarnon, Kerry Katona and Jenny Frost.  This is one for the history books - from three Scouse teen huns exploding on the charts with energetic Top of The Pops performances, to getting a big Asia push, before being quietly dropped by their label, and a swift line-up change followed by a triumphant string of No.1 singles and album.  We cover the singles 'Right Now', 'See Ya', 'I Want Your Love', 'Follow Me', 'Whole Again', 'Eternal Flame' and 'You Are'; dissect the different versions of the "Right Now" album, music videos and iconic fashion and live performances.
