2SSM • The Sopranos (1999)

"Those goddamn ducks..." This week Dave and Tom are diving head-first into the gabagool-filled jukebox that is The Sopranos Season 1 soundtrack. From the iconic "Woke Up This Morning" by Alabama 3 (they’re from Crewe you know!) that practically whacks you over the head with attitude, to the soulful depths of "Inside of Me", the hypnotic groove of "Mystic Eyes", the rebellious spirit of "I Feel Free", and the lonely highway menace of "State Trooper", the guys break down the songs that helped make Tony's world feel larger than life. Expect plenty of musical wiseguy talk, questionable Italian-American accents, impromptu quizzes, and more bad puns than Paulie Walnuts has tracksuits. So grab yerself a plate of baked ziti, park yourself by the Bada Bing, and join the boys as they cherry-pick the highlights from a soundtrack that's capo di tutti capi of TV music. Because when it comes to The Sopranos, it's not just about who gets clipped—it's about what was playing on the stereo when it happened. 🎵🍝🚬 BONUS MATERIAL: Kula Shaker - Govinda Live At The Plymouth Pavillion 26 Jan 1997 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWw9q7PlLbY

2SSM • Garth Marenghi's Darkplace (2004)

‘’I’ll get a Wimpy’’ In this spine-tingling, synth-dripping episode, Dave and Tom bravely descend into the dangerously underfunded corridors of Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace, where the beats are as haunted as the hospital and the budget is flatter than Dr. Rick Dagless M.D.’s coke float (sorry Dag). The lads lovingly dissect the iconic soundtrack, including the sultry (and questionably HR-compliant) anthem “One Track Lover,” which proves that romance is alive and well, as long as it’s extremely repetitive and slightly unsettling. Meanwhile, “Scotch Mist” drifts in like a fog of pure ‘80s ambience, or possibly just a side effect of something Dr. Lucien Sanchez left uncapped in the lab. Expect deep dives into other standout tracks that sound like they were composed on a haunted Casio keyboard during a power outage. We’ll also pay tribute to the unforgettable cast: Garth Marenghi himself (author, visionary, dreamweaver, definitely not compensating), Dean Learner (producer, ladies’ man, bearer of mysterious subplots), and the ever-intense Liz Asher, who brings both psychic energy and questionable medical credentials to the mix. So pull back your hood, plug in your headphones, and enjoy... well, I SAY enjoy BONUS MATERIAL: Doris Norton - Raptus - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgHixmkV3xI

2SSM • 1980s Cartoon Themes

“Thundercats, Thundercats, Thundercats….HOOOOOO!!!” Dust off your VHS tapes and prepare for a nostalgia overload! In this episode, the boys dive headfirst into the gloriously over-the-top world of 1980s cartoon theme tunes. We’re talking heroic guitar riffs, synths that could power a small city, and lyrics that explain the entire plot before the first ad break. Among others, the chaps unravel the epic, thunderous drama of Thundercats (because subtlety was clearly illegal in the '80s), marvel at how Inspector Gadget made “go-go” sound like a legitimate strategy, and groove through the high-octane cool of M.A.S.K (where the theme song is somehow faster than the cars). Oh…and of course, we’ll take a deep dive into DuckTales, the only theme that can make you want to solve mysteries, manage a billionaire’s finances, and dance like Beyoncé at the same time. Expect big tunes, bigger nostalgia, and at least one co-host attempting a dramatic “DuckTales! AWoo-oo!” (badly).

S2 E10 • Pulp Fiction (1994)

“Zed's dead, baby. Zed’s dead.” In this, the SEASON TWO FINALE - the lads open the briefcase of cool and let that golden glow of 1990s swagger blind them, as they tackle the beast that is the Pulp Fiction soundtrack…aka the mixtape that made you quote from the bible. We’re talking surf rock, country, soul, and a dash of Samuel L. Jackson’s great vengeance and furious anger. From the utterly anthemic “Misirlou” shredding harder than Vincent Vega on a dance floor, to the tender strains of “Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon” making everyone feel both hopelessly romantic and deeply uncomfortable, this hand-picked soundtrack is a masterclass in making chaos sound classy. Also - expect a heated debate on whether “Flowers on the Wall” is a carefree flowerchild romp or a deeply depressive cry for help AND tips on how to survive an attack from boogie-woogie vampire, Jools Holland. It’s retro, it’s reckless, and it’s got more grooves than Tarantino’s favourite foot pics. 🕶️💥 BONUS CONTENT: Lemmings Paintball Pulp Fiction Spoof - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIG4EIsFAF0 Fun Lovin' Criminals - Scooby Snacks - https://youtu.be/HEMjF2n3-SQ Jan August - Misirlou - https://open.spotify.com/track/6TaEkHgzQ6gFqEvXZyZ0HI?si=674b8bfb781b4d1a Cartoon Network Pulp Fiction Parody (Featuring Shaggy & Droopy Dog) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36u-2Ge8vEE Spy Hard Pulp Fiction Parody - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0Ozj5SXstE Neil Diamond - Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon - https://open.spotify.com/track/7J8qTx9CRh9tXRh74YmyOT?si=316c10ce81e94a10 The Champs - Tequila - https://open.spotify.com/track/5gJKsGij5oGt5H5RSFYXPa?si=a1cf20782d564a08

S2 E9 • Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie (1994) with James Bennett

“I’m the welcome wagon, it’s nice to meet’cha, friend!” Hadouken your ears! The lads are back (joined by good pal, and all-round Street Fighter connoisseur James “Jimmy” Bennett) and they’re all diving fist-first into the soundtrack for Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie — a 90s grunge-fest where Alice in Chains, Silverchair, Korn and KMFDM among others, battle for sonic supremacy. We’ll throw down on the heavy riffs, wild moods, and cultural chaos that made Street Fighter II more than just a game — it was a global phenomenon that turned arcade cabinets into arenas, and anime fans into headbangers. From Alice in Chains’ powerful “Them Bones” to Silverchair’s raw “Israel’s Son” and KMFDM’s industrial “Ultra,” this soundtrack hits harder than a Sonic Boom at full volume. The lads will also delve into their hazy early teen years, and uncover many a riveting anecdote, which may, or may not, include: Video-shop fountains, wet Mcdonalds bags….and Maplins! It’s nostalgia, noise, and nonsense — one big musical Combo Breaker! 💥 Bonus Content: Street Burger - Japanese McDonald’s Commercial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrNj7JxZVc0&feature=youtu.be Pablo Cruise - Love Will FInd A Way https://open.spotify.com/track/2LqzuRukwnpeWYLXBtiwmq?si=ee367d9adefc46bb Shpongle - Dorset Perception https://open.spotify.com/track/5SBrBmHBMD1FjHZrWdabsK?si=ac63a2ea84a6400c Enya - Orinoco Flow https://open.spotify.com/track/4bQNusmmVudLxIiexglzh6?si=96a4dd2bfa994a64 John Davis and The Monster Orchestra - I Can’t Stop https://open.spotify.com/track/7uD4gSr8Dp01R3gwzO9XdW?si=7050b2724e2b4bef
