The phrase defined a generation and the iconic girl group, but is it time to move on? And finally, Labubus.

We cover a lot of ground - my trip to NYC, the kids getting home for Christmas, and our continued deep thoughts and feelings about Taylor and Travis.

Welcome to our podcast where we discuss and deliberate over memoirs and biographies found in thrift shops. This is a great way to do things as we are not choosing who to read about. We may not be fans of the person, we may never have heard of the person and we never know who we are going to find next...There are only 2 rules to this podcast. The book has to be found in a thrift shop and we are not allowed to talk about the book until we press record, which is sometimes agonising.We have lots of episodes coming up so if you find yourself enjoying our podcast, please be sure to subscribe to be among the first to hear about each episode.THANK YOU FOR LISTENING

Melanie C, aka Sporty Spice, is best known for being in one of the most successful girl groups of all time. But this week she's swapping the pop world for the dance world and performing a new contemporary piece by the choreographer Jules Cunningham at Sadler's Wells. Melanie C and Jules Cunningham discuss their collaboration, How Did We Get Here? Rasha Nahas is a Palestinian singer-songwriter who was born in Haifa and now lives in Berlin. She tells Samira about her new album, Amrat, which is her first album in Arabic, and which explores nostalgia, sense of place, and the importance of authentic instrumental music.

From coming second in Eurovision less than a year ago to having his own BBC New Years Eve special, performing at Formula One, releasing his debut album and meeting Taylor Swift-it's safe to say Sam Ryder has been on an incredible journey.

The TikTok star who has become a household name joined Dermot and Dave to chat remembering lyrics, duetting with Sporty Spice, his previous life in a hardcore band and his plans for his Irish shows. Sam's debut album ‘There's Nothing But Space, Man' is out now and Sam will be in Belfast on March 17th and Dublin's 3Olympia on the 18th.

Melanie Chisholm (AKA “Sporty Spice” of the Spice Girls, solo artist, author of The Sporty One memoir) joins us to discuss the Spice Girls' impact on music and culture, battling difficult personal struggles in the extreme public eye, and the toll playing a caricature of yourself can take. She reveals the origins of the band and their “Girl Power” message, the similarities between each band member and their onstage personas, and why she finally decided to reflect on her experiences in her new memoir. Mel C opens up about the onset of her disordered eating, why she finally decided to seek help, and the toxicity of the tabloid media when Spice Girls rose to fame compared to today's social media. Mayim and Melanie consider denial as a coping mechanism, the loneliness that comes with disordered eating, and the impact of the loss of Queen Elizabeth II.Melanie Chisholm's memoir, "The Sporty One: My Life as a Spice Girl": https://www.grandcentralpublishing.com/titles/melanie-chisholm/the-sporty-one/9781538740316/BialikBreakdown.comYouTube.com/mayimbialik
Finally finishing up our Spice Girls, “Spiceworld” journey. Sorry for the delay once again, but we hope you guys enjoy this one. In this episode, Angie (@poetrysoul3) and Steffi (@inn_mho) break down the rest of the Spiceworld era.To begin the episode, we read through some of our listener feedback. Again, thanks so much for sending in your thoughts! We also go through some quick Diva Headlines - Spice Girls reunion at Geri's 50th birthday part (Mel B, where you at???) and the trailers for the upcoming Whitney Houston biopic. In our Era Breakdown episodes, we touch on so many topics like career context, controversies/scandals of the era, marketing, music videos, live performances, album stats, and the album & era's ultimate impact and legacy. For this episode, we discuss the unique way that the Spice Girls were marketed and all of the endorsement/brand deals that they did. Shoutout to Pepsi! Of course, we can't talk about “Spiceworld” without briefly discussing the cinematic classic “Spice World”. We then discuss our favorite music videos, live performances and go through all the Spice-y receipts. And finally, we bring the Spice Bus home by ending on a very important question: Did Geri cement the Spice Girls' pop culture legacy by leaving the way that she did?Album Info: Spiceworld is the second studio album by English girl group the Spice Girls, released on 1 November 1997 by Virgin Records. Its music incorporates dance-pop music and production. The album became a commercial success worldwide, lengthening the so-called "Spicemania" of the time. It debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, with first-week sales of 190,000 copies and shipped 1.4 million copies in two weeks. The album also reached number one in 13 countries, while peaking inside the top three in Australia, Canada, France, Switzerland and the United States.

Mel C is a singer and ‘Sporty Spice' from the Spice Girls, through her solo career and her time with the Spice Girls she's sold over 100 million records, making her one of the best selling musical artists of all time. Every single one of those records was against the odds of coming from a council estate near Liverpool, derogatory labels in the press calling her ‘Sumo Spice', and music industry management that didn't believe in her and sought to objectify her. But she persevered and helped to build the biggest girlband of all time, as well as one of the most successful solo careers of any group member ever. The world is so glad she did because, as this conversation shows, she has so much to contribute when she's let free to do things her way.

TW: eating disorders; suicide; sexual assaultI am so honoured to welcome my first ever Spice Girl to How To Fail! Today Melanie Chisholm - the artist formerly known as Mel C or even Sporty Spice - joins me in what is arguably her most open interview yet. She tells me about the impact of her parents' divorce, the extreme lengths of her people-pleasing as one of the most famous stars of the 1990s and her own struggles with her body. She talks bravely about the toxic impact of media attention on her weight, and how she developed an eating disorder. This led her into a very dark mental space where she felt dishonest about the image she was portraying to the outside world. Melanie also opens up about a sexual assault she endured while on tour in Turkey and her thoughts of suicide at her lowest points.And yet the extraordinary thing about Melanie is her resilience and her enduring gentleness. She is SO lovely, and we also have laugh-out-loud moments, including an unforgettable karaoke anecdote involving her and Baby Spice surprising some unsuspecting punters...What. A. Woman.--Who I Am by Melanie Chisholm is published on 15th September and is available to order here: https://www.waterstones.com/book/who-i-am/melanie-chisholm/9781802793598--How To Fail With Elizabeth Day is hosted and produced by Elizabeth Day.

This is a special episode of the podcast because while I'm away enjoying a holiday with my family I am sharing my episode as a guest on Nicole Tremaglio's podcast, Nicstalgia, where I had a blast going deep discussing what I love to talk about pop culture, change, and personal growth. If you're new to the podcast Nicole was a guest on Camera Ready & Abel and discussed the important difference between building a community and building an audience. Nicole Tremaglio is a brand and consultant pop culture expert, writer, and self-described millennial Sporty Spice. The Nicstalgia podcast, unlocks core memories from the 90s and 2000s while examining the past through a contemporary lens. In this episode of Nicstalgia I join Nicole to talk about how enthusiasm is valuable, how to avoid the ‘shoulds', stand out as yourself, and find your calling when you don't fit into neat little boxes.
