ÜBER DIESE EPISODE

Episode 52: Pulling Rabbits Out of a Hat (part two)

Christian tells more of the story of the making of 1984's Pulling Rabbits Out a Hat, nerds out more on the Fairlight CMI, wonders whatever happened to the "arch" style of pop singing, and makes a compelling case for Madonna's "Like a Virgin" owing its whole existence to one track on this album.

But the bigger news is this is the first full video episode of the podcast! Christian may as yet be working with a humble set of tools, but he thinks you'll like his little movie. What are the kids calling it? Ewe choob?

John Ashdown and I put a bow on the Telex album Sex. Well, sort of.

We just didn't possess the ambition to tackle nearly 20…
