  • Sky Magazine! – Sex, sin and six-packs with the Bible of the ’90s
    Apr 13 2026
    Diving deep into all things ’90s. Stuffed with high-glam, sex-soaked shots featuring the likes of Kylie, Johnny Depp, Madonna, Ewan McGregor and Uma Thurman, Sky Magazine was the glossiest badge of adulthood you could possibly leave on the coffee table. In an age when satellite TV was booming and the remote was king, it catapulted suburban Britain to the heart of Hollywood. Sky Magazine’s editor Simon Mills joins Miranda to revisit the glory days of the mag that turned TV listings into a lifestyle. From megastar interviews with Prince, Matt Dillon, Jason Priestley and Madonna to immaculate photoshoots to the mysteries of what was on at 6am on Sky One, it’s a flashback to a time when mags ruled the world… • Want an extra mini-pod every two weeks, early ad free episodes and access to merch? ⁠Support us on Patreon Follow us on: BlueSky Instagram TikTok Subscribe to our Spotify playlist • Buy Miranda’s book Uncommon People: Britpop and Beyond in 20 Songs through our affiliate bookshop and you’ll be helping the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.

  • Judge Jules – The original superstar DJ on decks, drugs and rock’n’roll
    Apr 6 2026
    Diving deep into all things ’90s. “The Judge won’t budge!” DJ Julius O'Riordan AKA Judge Jules was at the centre of the ’90s dance music boom that took the scene from pirate radio and illegal raves to Radio 1, superclubs and Ibiza at its most ’avin it. The law student turned DJ became one of the defining figures of the decade. Miranda sits down with Jules to talk about how dance music changed across the ’90s, what Ibiza was really like before it went mainstream, and the tracks that defined the era. It turned out that his law degree helped Jules put on raves and led to a career as a music lawyer. So how does he balance that with life as a touring DJ, playing more than 100 gigs a year? • Want an extra mini-pod every two weeks, early ad free episodes and access to merch? ⁠Support us on Patreon Follow us on: BlueSky Instagram TikTok Subscribe to our Spotify playlist • Buy Miranda’s book Uncommon People: Britpop and Beyond in 20 Songs through our affiliate bookshop and you’ll be helping the podcast by earning us a small commission for every sale.

    Diving deep into all things ’90s. Cigs for breakfast! Oral sex in the kitchen! Wobbly cameras! E binges! Egg! Milly! Miles! Anna! Warren! And “the punch”. It’s 30 years since the groundbreaking houseshare drama This Life exploded onto our screens and gave us a candid look into the lives of young lawyers living together in London. What made this ramshackle saga work? And what made the characters so believable? Miranda talks over the tears, the tantrums and the fridge arguments with entertainment journalist, podcast host and Sir!
