Such a good podcast - Miranda is a fantastic host, great questions and topics, excellent laugh and knowledgeable guests who are also good fun. The latest episode with Shirley Manson was awesome - I could listen to the two of them laughing all day.
Contrary to a few reviews here, I really do enjoy Miranda’s personality, humour, interview style and openness to different subjects. However, I think the podcast really shines when it focuses on a specific topic or figure rather than someone (usually a genXer who used to be in a semi-successful rock band and took lots of drugs) sharing their own experience of the nineties. In other words, more substance and less old lads club reliving their glory days
Each of the topics is a point in time in the 90s which had a cultural impact. There is a retrospective review with contemporary sources. My only issue with this format is that each week the guest tells how it impacted them and was a major event…only to discover the guest was only 9-14 years old at the time. This undermines the genuine reaction and passion the guest shows. Maybe get some guests who were late teens to 21 at the time.
Miranda’s Mutley Chuckle Kills It In A Good Way 🤣🤫, loved it all first time round, we all did- M gets it done without the @rz platery and ring craft evident on other cheap imitations.
Would benefit from tighter editing. Miranda’s stream of consciousness style is ok on a subject she knows well, but annoying the rest of the time. A lot of shows ramble endlessly- I rarely get to the end of an episode, despite enjoying many of the subjects.
