Cruella de Vil, Cruella de Vil, if she doesn’t scare you, no evil thing will! But luckily, its a fun movie and a really fun soundtrack. You can tell our hosts Henry, Dave and John all enjoyed this one, there’s lots of banter, talking over each other and telling stories. And you get to hear music from The Clash, Nancy Sinatra, David Bowie, Blondie, The Rolling Stones and Nina Simone.

Boy Swallows Universe is a mini-series based on a novel by Trent Dalton. Set in 1983 it is a semi-biographical coming of age tale of Eli and his family as they try to survive in a world of violence, drugs and crime. But the soundtrack is amazing! Filled with 80s Aussie classics as well as some UK influences. You’ll enjoy songs from INXS, Paul Kelly, Skyhooks, The Church and then Yazoo, the Stranglers and The Rolling Stones.

Bond, James Bond. Immortal words and some immortal theme songs too! This week the gang deep dive into their favourite songs from the movies, stemming from the 70s to more recent tracks. You’ll hear everything from Shirley Bassey to Garbage! Madonna, Sam Smith, Wings, Sheena Easton and Duran Duran all feature and what is likely to be the first of perhaps a couple of shows on these incredible songs.

Its time for some deep-thinking, tear-jerking love, drama, family and pop music! All of those things feature in the 2023 film All Of Us Strangers. This wonderful film stars, according to Dave, “the beautiful Andrew Scott” and “the beautiful Paul Mescal”, along with Claire Foy and Jamie Bell. Its set in modern times but also goes back in time to the 80s and 90s where much of the soundtrack comes from. You’ll hear Alison Moyet, Pet Shop Boys, Blur, Frankie Goes to Hollywood and Fine Young Cannibals.

This week John introduces Dave and Henry to the streaming series, The Last Of Us. A dystopian zombie-genre series set in 2023 and 2003 where mankind has fallen foul of a mutated fungus. While that doesnt sound like much fun, the soundtrack is and that’s what’s important! We share stories of music from Avril Lavinge, Dido, Depeche Mode, Erasure, Aha and Etta James. As well as a sweet song by Nick Offerman, one of the actors in the series.

Music from T-Rex, Venus In Furs, Roxy Music, Grant Lee Buffalo, Shudder To Think and Steve Harley.
