Welcome back to 1987!The decade of decadence, extravagance, elegance and other words that end in -nce was powering its way towards the later end of its cultural tenure. And whilst there is no doubt that perceived wisdom (or, the internet as we now call it) would tell us that 1987 was the year of big hair, big shoulder pads, and big mobile phones, those of that were there can tell a different story too. The year of POP aspiration was also one of smoke and mirrors. The big suits and big statements across our TV and radio were often wonderfully deceptive. Whilst the music industry had loadsamoney to spend, those acts climbing the charts and filling the pages of Smash Hits were doing so often in the most homemade and, frankly subversive way possible. And in doing so, the genres were flowing, the hits were coming and our pop landscape was as colourful and diversive as we could possibly have wished for.Step forward then the leading compilation series (other slightly inferior ones were OBVIOUSLY available) to deliver its tenth volume. I know, double figures!!Now, That's What I Call Music 10 shines brightly with its neon signage casting a glittering pop beacon over the wasteland of…..(enough with the imagery, get to the songs, Ed!)Step forward the utterly imperial Pet Shop Boys, the incredibly sophisti-poptastic Curiosity Killed The Cat, the completely covered in plaster-of-Paris Hue and Cry and many other to lead the hits-filled charge into Autumn ‘87. And joining me to provide her very own unique view of this pop snapshot is TV and radio presenter Sue Charles.Join us as we find out about Sue's journey across Radio1 AND 2, from 'Newsbeat' and 'Steve Wright in the Afternoon' to reporting behind the scenes at TOTP and to becoming one of the most familiar voices and faces across BBC Wales. And of course, dive deep back into the pop culture of 1987 that includes the The Style Council, Casey Kasem, Andy Warhol, Shrewsbury(!), Sir William of Idol, Cliff, claymation Jazz, the glorious return of Squeeze and some genuine love for one of Wales' musical legends Mike Peters.All of this plus some amazing missing in action ‘87 stars and not a single mention of Michael Fish! Ain't no doubt about it, this is The Real Thing! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Simon reflects on reinvention, longevity, and the pressure of evolving in a constantly changing dance music landscape. He opens up about the grind of the modern industry, blocking out the noise, and reconnecting with the reasons he started making music in the first place.Who is Shadow Child: Who is Shadow Child: Two decades into his career, Shadow Child announces his debut album A Break In The Clouds, a vivid chronicle of his musical journey. Emerging from the rave, breakbeat, hardcore, and jungle scenes of the '90s UK, Shadow Child first came to prominence as Dave Spoon with global residencies and hit remixes for artists like Pet Shop Boys and Dizzee Rascal. As Shadow Child, he's carved a niche in deep house and bass-driven dance music, blending euphoric vocals with rave-inspired beats. A Break In The Clouds celebrates Simon's full musical spectrum – from shuddering breakbeats and UK garage grooves to introspective, emotive moments – showcasing the confidence and freedom of an artist at the peak of his craft. Beyond the music, Simon mentors emerging artists and champions wellness in the industry, balancing high-energy performances with a thoughtful, grounded approach to his career.⏲ Follow Will Clarke ⏱https://djwillclarke.com/https://open.spotify.com/artist/1OmOdgwIzub8DYPxQYbbbi?si=hEx8GCJAR3mhhhWd_iSuewhttps://www.instagram.com/djwillclarkehttps://www.facebook.com/willclarkedjhttps://twitter.com/djwillclarkehttps://www.tiktok.com/@djwillclarke Hosted on Acast.

The phrase "go west!" was not coined by the Village People or the Pet Shop Boys, but by Horace Greeley, a famous newspaper editor a long time ago. And seen from Europe, all of the United States is West. So that's what Luca Puster tells his young European clients who just finish High School and are considering college: Go west young man, and grow up playing football. Or soccer. How do they find American colleges? What makes them come here, what is attractive about this step in their football and study careers? How do they find the game here, the current crisis around immigration and politics, what do they take back? Luca is the co-founder of Students Go West, an agency that helps bring European footballers into American collegiate soccer programs.

For their season finale, Graham and Chris go full‑throttle at Electric, the album that jolted Pet Shop Boys back into ‘banging and lasers' mode — and inspired the Pod Cast Boys to embrace the same rule‑breaking, high‑voltage fun. Following Neil, Chris and Stuart Price's alphabetical recording method, they present the full A–Z of Electric, diving into its wild mix of influences from Italo disco and Madonna to William Blake and Lionel Richie; duty disco doctors witnessing the birth of Elysium's unruly twin. There's the story of how Axis recharged lapsed fans, a headspin into the politics of dancing, and how freedom, faffing and freewheeling joy shaped both the record and this episode. Plus: listener memories, the x2 origin story, and Escape to the Country — a celebration of Pet Shop Boys at their most liberated.” Want to show your love for the Pet Shop Boys In Depth podcast?    Visit our new Crowdfunder - anything appreciated!

In the first instalment of what promises to be an occasional Further Listening series, Graham and Chris delve into the Pet Shop Boys' b‑side and fan favourite The Resurrectionist. Joining them is historian and author Sarah Wise, whose acclaimed book The Italian Boy inspired Neil's macabre lyric about 1830s body snatching and the grisly trade in corpses. A devoted Pethead herself, Sarah reflects on her fandom while spilling the guts on the chilling history behind her work. Together, they explore how Victorian true crime found its way into pop music - and whether The Resurrectionist might finally resurface at next year's Obscure shows.

Episode 196: Depeche Mode: Home Video Concert Releases (Part 3) and Bowie Bingo Announcement In this episode, Brian and Sarah resume their review of Depeche Mode home video concert releases. They're up to the 2005 album Playing the Angel, which the band supported with the "Touring the Angel" concert tour in 2005 and 2006. The home video "Touring the Angel: Live in Milan" documents the band's two nights performing in Milan, Italy in February 2006. The director of this film is Blue Leach, who has worked with many other artists including R.E.M., Beck, and The Pet Shop Boys. Blue Leach takes a decidedly different approach to filming and editing Depeche Mode in concert compared to past directors such as Anton Corbijn. "Touring the Angel" is a very dissimilar viewing experience to "Devotional" or "101," and Brian and Sarah have quite a lot to say about it. They also, of course, go over the same topics/questions they're addressing for each home concert video release. However, in this episode, Sarah seems especially hard-pressed to pick a single answer for each category. Also included in the discussion are topics such as the stage design and setup; which member of the band is almost unrecognizable after a certain point in the show; and Depeche Mode's increasing popularity as a live act. And, as referenced in the episode title, Brian and Sarah share information about the return of Bowie Bingo this holiday season! Make sure you sign up for a slot to participate in this fun Zoom event!

We explore why the song's themes of unity and hope resonate so profoundly with the resilient spirit of Naples, making "going west" a metaphor for the team's ascent to European football's pinnacle. We dive into the electrifying pre-match ritual at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, where the iconic melody transforms 50,000 fans into the team's thunderous twelfth man, solidifying the song's legacy as one of football's most organic and powerful anthems.

John welcomes Andrew Sullivan—former editor of The New Republic, first-wave blogger, current Substacker, pioneering gay marriage advocate, #BritishGayCatholicConservative public intellectual, and controversy magnet for nearly 40 years—to discuss the Trump 2.0 era and Sullivan's recent New York Times op-ed, “How the Gay Rights Movement Radicalized and Lost its Way.” Sullivan argues that Trump is less an aspiring dictator than a wannabe monarch; that, even so, his enthusiasm for state terror tactics is ominously authoritarian; and that the gay rights movement has gone astray with its embrace of the trans agenda. Sullivan also explains his adoration of Pet Shop Boys, and why “Being Boring” is their greatest song.
