12FL002 Trilingual (Bonus Content)

Épisode 38

jeudi 3 septembre 2026 • Durée 09:53

To mark 30 years of Bilingual, Graham and Chris unveil a bonus previously unreleased “further listening” segment from their double deep dive into the album. Here they explore its visual identity, packaging quirks, marketing strategy, and the critical reaction which greeted it on release.

It’s a compact companion to their full anniversary celebration episodes!

12RX042 Bilingual (parte 2)

Épisode 36

jeudi 6 août 2026 • Durée 01:30:44

Graham and Chris return to Bilingual for the second half of their deep dive - exploring how the album became a record of dualities: international yet introspective, sun-lit yet deep in shadow, Latin‑infused yet completely anchored in New York dance culture.

After revisiting the album’s many far-flung inspirations, they dig into how the record was actually made - and discover a fragmented process that spanned years, continents, producers and studios, ultimately shaping an album that was proudly and aggressively un-British.

Graham reflects on his own long journey with the record, from feeling alienated by its sunshine in 1996 to finally unlocking its “warmth and light” decades later. Chris, meanwhile, argues that Bilingual has always been two albums at once.

Together they explore the album’s emotional and musical range - from dislocation, miscommunication and AIDS-era survivalism, to Euro-business satire and bossa-nova romance - a thoughtful, funny journey through an album shaped by resilience, metamorphosis and the will to survive.

12RX041 Bilingual (parte 1)

Épisode 35

jeudi 30 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:05:37

Graham and Chris return to 1996 for the first half of their Bilingual exploration - a summer of Britpop swagger, Spice Girls hysteria, Euro ’96 euphoria, and their own very different lives in northern Britain.

They stand again at Pet Shop Boys’ post‑Very crossroads: older, out of step with the charts, paranoid about the rise of Pulp and Blur, yet still pushing forward as Before takes shape in New York - with a little help from Danny Tenaglia and OJ Simpson.

Then the album’s Latin heart bursts open: the multicultural heat and nudity of the Sound Factory Bar, SheBoom’s Glaswegian beer-swigging drummers, the exotic excitement of the Discovery tour, Olodum’s samba‑reggae beats and the birth of Se A Vida É.

It’s a celebration of rhythm, reinvention and the album that saw Pet Shop Boys open the door to a whole new world. Come outside and feel the morning sun!

12RX040 Summer

Épisode 37

jeudi 23 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:36:08

Pod Cast Boys celebrate their 40th episode by diving into 40 summers of Pet Shop Boys’ fandom - from bedroom mixtapes and sunlounger listening, to festivals, raves, summer jobs and water‑parks.

They revisit the summers that shaped them: 1986 camping trips spent listening to Opportunities, Algarve holidays soundtracked by It’s Alright, plastics‑factory glue fumes mixed with Can You Forgive Her?, Manchester Paninaro promo‑hunting, and the thrill of hearing PSB’s 90s Radio 1 residencies with Sasha, Frankie Knuckles and 808 State. Plus they bring us bang up to date with Dreamworld tales from Lytham and Paris.

There’s a forensic look at Pet Shop Boys’ own summer adventures too: the Miami heat of Domino Dancing, the 1989 tour and its legendary Bingobangobongo party, Chris’s love of rave culture and sunglasses, and the pure sunshine of Se A Vida É - with Bruce Weber’s Wet ‘n Wild Florida video, Rupert Brooke’s poetry and Mark Farrow’s brightest sleeve.

From Somewhere at the Savoy to Nightlife at Creamfields, from total eclipses to total reinventions, get ready for a nostalgic, funny, affectionate journey through the summers that made Pet Shop Boys - and the summers that made Graham and Chris.

12RX039 Museum

Épisode 34

jeudi 16 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:24:06

Graham and Chris open the doors to Pet Shop Boys Legacy - their fantasy museum celebrating over 40 summers of PSB history. From the pulsating Electric‑style entrance tunnel to the Newcastle and Blackpool origin story settings, they build an immersive world of childhood bookshelves, mind-expanding youth theatres, Pleasure Beach big wheels, tropical disco dancefloors and early synthesisers.

The tour moves through London bedsits, the Chelsea Record Centre, Ray Roberts’ Camden studio and the Applejack Diner where Neil first met Bobby O. Then it expands into a full-blown Mark Farrow-designed PSB universe: iconic outfits, sleeves, videos, stage designs, deep‑cut artefacts and fan memories - all reimagined as a playful, over‑the‑top exhibition only the Pod Cast Boys could dream up.

At its core, the museum becomes a new way of understanding the Pet Shop Boys story - a map of where they came from; a celebration of the breadth of their creativity; and a reminder that their history is very much still being written.

Step inside for a summer celebration of imagination, fandom and four decades of Pet Shop Boys!

12RX038 Obscure: After the event

Saison 6 · Épisode 5

dimanche 12 avril 2026 • Durée 01:35:45

Episode 38 – Obscure: After the Event

United by a shared love of one band, Graham and Chris close Season Six with their most personal episode yet - a sun‑drenched, queue‑length, bladder‑testing, heart‑thumping deep dive into Pet Shop Boys’ Obscure concerts at Camden’s Electric Ballroom.

What begins as a simple “after the event” recap quickly becomes a full‑blown oral history of the week London turned into PSB City: 5am superfans, numbered wristbands, Chicken Shop suitcase storage, tactical toilet breaks, merch‑lounge carpets, and the strange, beautiful camaraderie of a crowd who’d waited forty years for a night like this.

From there, the Pod Cast Boys relive the gigs in forensic, front‑row detail - the dry ice, the wallow‑heavy setlist, the thrill of seeing their heroes in person, and the emotional punch of hearing deep cuts in a tiny room with 1,500 ecstatic fans and their closest friends.

They celebrate new drummer Max Blunos’ death metal roots, legacy guest stars Sylvia, Mark and Johnny F-ing Marr, Neil’s lectern‑top lyric folder, and the five times an entire ballroom embraced the words: “Tonight - no hits!”

Along the way they revisit their own “scientific” setlist predictions, the chaos of their travel logistics, decode “the vibe”, and share the joy of experiencing Pet Shop Boys with lifelong friends, new global acquaintances, and a surprising number of people wearing In Depth T‑shirts.

Finally, they wrap the season with the inaugural In Depth Obscure Awards - honouring the strangest, boldest, most unexpected moments of the Obscure era - and reflect on why these shows felt like a celebration not just of PSB’s deep cuts, but of their own teenage imperial phases too.

A gig diary; a fan documentary; a tribute to the power of community - the perfect finale to a season that’s traced four decades of Pet Shop Boys from Please to Volume to Obscure. Come join us in Camden!

12RX037 Volume

Saison 6 · Épisode 4

jeudi 2 avril 2026 • Durée 01:05:37

With Volume - Pet Shop Boys’ complete visual history - finally landing, Graham and Chris open the book and step straight into four decades of meticulously crafted pop iconography. Using the anniversary of Please as their start point, they trace how the duo’s visual world was forged even before chart success.

They begin with their earliest photo shoots: Eric Watson’s ripped T‑shirts and tennis racquets; the Tottenham flat where friendships, romances and future lyrics intertwined; and the stark, stylish images that helped define the PSB aesthetic. From there they follow the thread through XL Design, ZTT’s manifesto-driven maximalism, Factory’s cool minimalism, and the arrival of Mark Farrow - the designer who would help turn Pet Shop Boys sleeves into modern art.

Along the way they revisit the key visual turning points: the first Boy cap, the tartan‑trousered Brixton showcase, the “don’t look triumphant” Top of the Pops performance, the industrial luxury of the West End Girls sleeve, and the early videos where Neil and Chris perfected the art of doing… practically nothing.

But are they “art”, or just “dead arty”? By exploring the images, collaborators and ideas that shaped Pet Shop Boys’ visual identity, Graham and Chris paint a podcast portrait that uncovers how PSB instinctively understood that pop should look as good as it sounds.

12RX036 Obscure

Saison 6 · Épisode 3

vendredi 27 mars 2026 • Durée 01:14:55

With Pet Shop Boys preparing to dive deep into their catalogue for five intimate Obscure shows at Camden’s Electric Ballroom, Graham and Chris roll up their sleeves for their most forensic fan investigation yet: can two amateurs really predict the ultimate non‑singles setlist?

First they uncover the historical clues - the 40th anniversary of Please and a rediscovered 1986 photoshoot - before following the evidence to the duo’s early‑80s Camden stomping ground and a 1984 Pits and Perverts benefit, the Barfly’s legendary 200‑capacity War Child fundraiser, and the Electric Ballroom’s own independent wrestling pedigree.

From there, they plunge into the outer edges of the Tennant/Lowe universe: Further Listening deep cuts, lost intros, 28‑minute Bobby O experiments, Japanese / Czech collaborations, and the question of which Pet Shop Boys track is the most obscure ever. Along the way they weigh up fan favourites, Radio 2 poll results, Chris Lowe’s own 2008 fantasy setlist, dream merch ideas, and the songs their own In Depth listeners most want to hear.

What emerges is a gloriously over‑engineered, spreadsheet‑driven, “scientific” prediction of the Obscure setlist - complete with debates about staging, guests, new arrangements, and whether or not the shows will see them strip back to just two men and a very dependable laptop.

Part history lesson, part detective story, part love letter to Pet Shop Boys’ deepest cuts - this is the perfect warm‑up for the most anticipated Pet Shop Boys concerts in decades.

12RX035 Please (pt2)

Saison 6 · Épisode 2

vendredi 20 mars 2026 • Durée 01:12:00

Graham and Chris return to 1986 for the second half of their 40th-anniversary Please deep dive, placing Pet Shop Boys’ debut into the wider world it landed in - Cold War tension, Chernobyl panic, post-Live Aid earnestness, brick-sized mobile phones and a pop landscape buzzing with the likes of A‑ha, Five Star and Madonna.

From there they go track‑by‑track, and enter Advision’s world of talking calculators, existential mathematics, singing lessons, sax solos, misfiring sequencers, kebab-house retsina, studio parties, drunken TV appearances, tubular bells and truculent trombonists. Along the way they unearth lost demos, unlikely influences, rare remixes, and some of Neil’s first and finest lyrical blueprints.

What emerges is a love letter to London, to escape, to youth and to hedonism. Forty years on, and Please still sounds like the beginning of something.

12RX034 Please (pt1)

Saison 6 · Épisode 1

vendredi 13 mars 2026 • Durée 01:08:40

Unboxing the opening chapter of their 40th-anniversary super deluxe celebration of Please, Graham and Chris rewind to PSB Year Zero - the moment an “ex-Smash Hits journalist” met a “weird architect” and began politely reshaping pop. They trace the stories of five pivotal Please people who helped turn Neil and Chris into Pet Shop Boys: eight-track mentor Ray Roberts; Hi-NRG maverick Bobby O, maximalist manager Tom Watkins; rock-steady producer Stephen Hague; and legendary vocalist and Dylan collaborator Helena Springs.

Along they way, they tell the full, cinematic origin stories of West End Girls and Opportunities - from knee-slapping demos and New York studio bills to T.S. Eliot, sealed trains and chart-dodging false starts - and share their own first steps into PSB fandom. It’s the beginning of a two-part deep dive into the album that started everything.

Plus: stay tuned right to the end of the credits for news of the first ever In Depth podcast competition!
