Calling all lip gloss b*tches and members of Team Britney - the podcast is back with a bumper Big Brother special! With just days to go until a brand new series arrives on ITV (and Virgin Media One in Ireland), my Melfest correspondent Sebastian makes his mainstream debut to take me through the entire run - so far! - of the reality TV juggernaut. We also have an Eternal update from Olly, and definitely not the kind either of us wanted to talk about. Aside from that, we have some more News, Recommendations and of course my Mam is back. Enjoy!

Just like Forever, the podcast hiatus is OVERRRRRR and we are kicking off Season 4 in style with an episode focusing on the girl group with possibly one of the finest singles discography in the history of pop - and definitely the best Megamix - The Saturdays! Founder member of #TeamSats Carl joins me to take me through the story and discography of the group, and as always we have some News, Recommendations and another appearance from my Mam. Thanks for listening, and enjoy!

I went to Eurovision for the first time ever this year so of COURSE I had to talk about it! Previous guests Freddy (Stricly Come Dancing) and John (Eurovision 2022) join me to go over the incredible week we had in Liverpool and reflect on the how the Contest played out - plus James from the Steps episode dials in with his own experiences working on Eurovision this year. Enjoy!

It's the ACTUAL most wonderful time of the year, and the podcast is back to take a deep dive into all things Eurovision 2023! Eurofan Tyron joins me to talk about his love for the Contest over the years, what makes a good/bad year, the highs and lows of this year's lineup and we reveal the results of the TGPL jury! As always, there's some News and Recommendations too - and my Mam is back as well, of course! Enjoy!

Also, I catch up with our S Club 7 correspondent Paul about this week's exciting developments and we hear from another previous guest Aoife re the Rihanna Superbowl Half-Time Show!

It's time for some wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff on the podcast as my friend Chris joins me to talk about his love for Doctor Who! I am his naive companion as he guides me through the evolution of the show (particularly since its return in 2005) and counts down his favourite episodes with much more miscellaneous Whovian chat besides! Plus we have an update from our Tomb Raider correspondent Rik, and as always there's a Quiz, some Recommendations and an appearance from my Mam! Enjoy!

It's Episode 30 which is A CAUSE for celeBRATION, and my friend of many years Aoife joins me to talk about our shared love for Mariah Carey, specifically looking at the period from 2001 (Glitter) to 2008 (E=MC²). We chat about our general feelings on each album, pick our favourite tracks, the ones we'd skip, and there are lots of other such festive moments besides.

IT'S CHRISTMAS MALCOLM and we're taking the opportunity to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Spice World (aka Spiceworld) The Movie, released of course on St. Stephen's Day also known in some territories as Boxing Day in 1997. I'm delighted to invite two previous guests back to the TGPL, namely Dan from Episode 1 (Spice Girls) and Paul from Episode 21 (S Club 7). We talk about their love for the film, and they count down their favourite moments and quotes! There's a Quiz which is a bit different to the usual format (fingers on buzzers!), and of course we have TGPL News, Recommendations and my Mam's back as always. Enjoy!
