Freakier Friday, AJLT & Scouting For Girls

Freakier Friday, AJLT & Scouting For Girls

Happy Friday EICers, this week on the podcast we’re talking about the sequel 20 years in the making, the end of Sex and the City, and the new beginnings for nostalgic music.


First up, Freakier Friday, which is out TODAY! We were lucky enough to go to a screening on Monday and we did our best to not discuss the film until the record. 22 years after Freaky Friday, Anna Coleman has become a music producer and manager and has the help of her mother Tess in raising her teenage daughter Harper. At almost 2 hours run time, is it worth it? You'll have to listen to find out!


On Friday night Ruchira was on her way to a night out in honour of Charli XCX’s birthday in Hackney when the news hit her… And Just Like That was dead. Showrunner Michael Patrick King said whilst writing the last episode of season 3 “it became clear this might be a wonderful place to stop”. @yoldafister tweeted: 'as someone who has spent 3 seasons trashing this show, i’m devastated'. We weigh in.


And lastly, guess who's back? Well, it seems, a lot of people! Specifically bands. From Blue, to Scouting For Girls and Busted vs Mcfly, it's nostalgia city out here, with pop musicians of the past riding a second wave of fame thanks to social media. How has the internet shaped the way we consume music?


We so hope you enjoy, as always please do rate, review, and share the podcast, it helps so much!


Please also if you would be so kind, do vote for us in The Listener's Choice Awards :)


Thank you to Cue for all your help! O, R, B x
