131. Black Mirror - Common People | Podding On

Our cultural artefact for this Podding On episode is the 2006 album Sam's Town by The Killers, which was their follow up to their successful debut record, Hot Fuss. Why is Sam's Town our favourite of their albums? That's what we chat about. Over on Patreon, we podded off about second albums, deception in music production, pitch correction/autotune, and Noel Gallagher.

The cultural artefact we are exploring in this Podding On episode is Newcastle United manager Kevin Keegan's infamous rant about Alex Ferguson on 29th April 1996. We flick through Paul McCarthy's book, Fever Pitch: The Rise of the Premier League 1992-2004, and reflect on some of the weird, wonderful, and bizarre aspects of the early days of the Premier League. We hope that whether you love, hate, or are generally (dis)interested in football, you will find something to enjoy in our conversation about this British cultural phenomenon thirty years on. In our Patreon-only Podding Off episode, we chat about the irritating, absurd, and sometimes delightful things sports commentators say. Join us there and let us know what we should talk about next! https://patreon.com/aqnin9 Thank you to our first patrons and sponsors for this episode: Donna Lane and Skinnydecaf Support The Show We will never put adverts on this podcast.  Become our Patreon Subscriber and get access to Podding Off (private feed): https://patreon.com/aqnin9 Or drop us a one-off donation and sponsor a future episode: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/aqnin9
