For this episode, we've ventured (just) outside the '90s and '00s to discuss Joe McElderry's 2010 single, 'Ambitions'. And we've bent the rules with good reason because the man himself joins us to look back at his first post-X Factor release. Joe gives us all the background on the song's origins as a chart-topping hit for the Norwegian band Donkeyboy and how it helped shape the sound of his debut album, 'Wide Awake'. We discuss the making of the music video (including that iconic choreography) and how the record label reacted to the commercial performance of 'Ambitions'. Joe also talks to us about his subsequent success becoming a triple-reality TV show winner, the inspiration behind his recent material, honouring George Michael's musical legacy and much more. We hope you enjoy listening to the episode — and discovering what life is like inside and outside the X Factor bubble — as much as we did recording it. Joe McElderry is currently touring with Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat until the 10th of August 2025. Tickets for the remaining dates are available at: https://uk.josephthemusical.com/ Joe will also be touring later this year.

Outward is going on a little summer break, in the meantime we're leaving you with a delightfully queer episode of Slate's Hit Parade with Chris Molanphy: Little Richard was rock ‘n' roll's flamboyant architect. Lesley Gore sang that no one owned her. Sylvester was a gender-fluid icon who helped define disco. Freddie Mercury made rock operatic, and George Michael demanded freedom. What all of these LGBTQ artists had in common was bold hitmaking—and fear of being fully out of the closet. For decades, queer acts topped the charts while cloaking their true identities and paving the way for today's more openly queer stars. For Pride Month, join Chris Molanphy as he traces the hidden history of queer hitmakers on the charts—including those that managed to be both out and No. 1, right up through our modern age of Lil Nas X and Chappell Roan. It's a celebration of these artists' quest to feel… mighty real. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam kicks things off with the simple joy of power washing before diving into a broader conversation about how cultures can be judged by how they treat women. He revisits the aftermath of the Southern California wildfires, highlighting the glaring lack of rebuilding progress six months later. Adam also shares his harsh review of the new Jurassic Park movie, then shifts gears to rant about George Michael's take on monogamy. He reflects on the story of Def Leppard's one-armed drummer, explores the wild persona of David Lee Roth, and reacts to a hilarious video of a man getting attacked by a squirrel—using it as yet another opportunity to pitch his idea for attack crows.In the news, the UFC will possibly have an event at the White House as part of America's 250th birthday celebration.

It's Gay Pride (in America)! To commemorate iconic homosexual musician George Michael in the week of what would have been his 62nd birthday, and for our fifth annual Pride episode in the last week of Pride MONTH, Matt takes a look at the enduring cultural impact of George Michael's song Father Figure, and the idea that, as eminent American producer, Dick Clark once put it “Music is the soundtrack of your life.” And from there, Matt talks about how George Michael's music helped him as a small boy to re-discover the fun of pop music, and maybe even life, after the sudden death of his father. It's an episode about a whole lot of things, it runs a slim, almost 27 minutes (a commute!), and it includes Liza Minnelli, Stephen Sondheim, and The Pet Shop Boys in a small but reassuring way.Subscribe to our substack hereFollow us on Instagram hereFollow Matt Phillp hereFollow Erin Hosier hereFollow Elizabeth Thompson here This is a public episode.

Little Richard was rock ‘n' roll's flamboyant architect. Lesley Gore sang that no one owned her. Sylvester was a gender-fluid icon who helped define disco. Freddie Mercury made rock operatic, and George Michael demanded freedom. What all of these LGBTQ artists had in common was bold hitmaking—and fear of being fully out of the closet. For decades, queer acts topped the charts while cloaking their true identities and paving the way for today's more openly queer stars. For Pride Month, join Chris Molanphy as he traces the hidden history of queer hitmakers on the charts—including those that managed to be both out and No. 1, right up through our modern age of Lil Nas X and Chappell Roan. It's a celebration of these artists' quest to feel… mighty real. Get more Hit Parade with Slate Plus!

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 2ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 sheol an Aire Sláinte Charles Haughey scéim ar leith chun cabhrú le daoine óga sna cathracha a raibh riosca orthu damáiste a dhéanamh dá shaol.

I 1989 bhí meas ar 16 míle duine chun a bheith ag an o briens bridge village agus aonach contae a raibh ar siúil gach bliain. Sin Sonique le It Feels So Good – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2000 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1973 chuaigh Paul McCartney chuig uimhir a haon I Meiriceá lena albam Red Rose Speedway agus fuair sé uimhir a haon lena hamhrán My Love agus d'fhan sé ann ar feadh ceithre seachtaine. I 1984 fuair Wham! A chéad uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena amhrán Wake Me Up Before You Go Go. Scríobh George Michael an t-amhrán agus bhí sé páirteach den bhanna cheoil. An inspioráid don amhrán ná nuair a scríobh Andrew Ridgeley nóta dá thuismitheoirí ag rá 'wake me up before you go' agus scríobh sé 'up' dhá uair agus mar sin scríobh sé an teideal 'wake me up before you go go'. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Wentworth Miller sa Bhreatain I 1972 agus rugadh aisteoir Ethan Slater I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1992 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 2nd of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1978: health minister Charles Haughey had launched a unique scheme to help young people in cities who may have been at risk of becoming delinquents. 2000: the norths power sharing ministers were under attack last night from extremists on both sides. 1978: close on 50,000 people came to ennis on the previous weekend for Fleadh Nua '78 and spent an estimated £3/4 million. 1989: an estimated 16,000 people were expected to attend an annual o briens bridge village and county fair. That was Sonique with It Feels So Good – the biggest song on this day in 2000 Onto music news on this day In 1973 Paul McCartney had both the No.1 positions on the US charts when 'Red Rose Speedway', went to the top of the album chart and 'My Love', started a four week run as the No.1 single. 1984 Wham! had their first UK No.1 with 'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go.' Written and produced by George Michael, one half of the duo. Inspiration for the song was a scribbled note left by his Wham! partner Andrew Ridgeley for Andrew's parents, originally intended to read "wake me up before you go" but with "up" accidentally written twice, so Ridgeley wrote "go" twice on purpose. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Wentworth Miller was born in the UK in 1972 and actor Ethan Slater was born in America on this day in 1992 and this is some of the stuff he has done. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

David and Brad dissect Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin spectacle featuring an all-female crew of “astronauts” in form-fitting space suits and Katie Perry kissing the ground after an 11-minute joyride in an undeniably phallic spacecraft. Then comes the irony of New York Attorney General Letitia James—who pursued Trump on property valuation charges—now facing similar accusations of falsifying loan applications and listing her father as her husband. The episode wraps with the cautionary tale of Minot, North Dakota's mayor, whose personal 'rocket launch' video accidentally landed in his city attorney's inbox—proving once again that incompetence knows no political boundary. All this plus squirrel beheadings, Disney cruises, and George Michael appreciation.

Seven arrests in twelve years and more than a couple sleepless nights inside a London prison. This reads like the description of a stereotypical Sunset Strip metalhead, not that of pop prince George Michael. George's criminal transgressions include a bust for a “lewd act” in a public place, a crack addiction, numerous car crashes. George Michael was on a collision course with an early death, but he died of a broken heart. Along the way he made great music. Here's his story. Which early MTV icon is your favorite? Why?
