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.

| Badgering the witness | 27 Nov 2020 | 01:30:34 | |
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.

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!

| What a bright spark... and a complete nut job | 15 Jul 2020 | 01:12:32 | |
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.
