    'All The Way' Back to Busted, Disney Channel Bangers & Lyrics That Haven't Aged Well Ep 16

    This week we spiral (affectionately) over Busted’s “All the Way.” Is it an elite 00s masterpiece? Is it… fine? We debate, we overanalyze, we absolutely overreact — and then we decide where it lands in our very serious, very scientific ranking system. Then it’s time for This or That: 00s Disney Channel Edition from Tay this week, and Shan makes Tay choose over 2 of her most disliked McFly/Busted songs. We debut a brand new segment where we revisit 00s songs that have not aged gracefully. We break down the lyrics, decode what they actually meant, and ask the important question: why were we screaming this at age 11??? It’s chaotic bestie energy, nostalgia overload, and at least three moments where we say “WAIT… hold on.” 10/10 whiplash. Bring snacks. 🎧💅✨ TRIGGER WARNING - We briefly discuss Britneys song and music video 'Everytime' which includes a scene of attempted suicide.

    Met This Girl, Deep Cut Faves and Tom Fletchers facial hair Ep. 15

    This week, we’re diving into “Met This Girl” by McFly, and let’s just say… Shan and Tay could not be further apart. With ratings at completely opposite ends of the scale, things get spicy as we unpack why this song hits (or absolutely doesn’t). Plus, it’s time for This or That, where Tay puts Shan through the ultimate challenge: choosing between each McFly member’s previous version of himself 😬 And if that wasn’t enough chaos, Tay takes on the McFly Says Quiz… and walks away with a brutal 0 out of 4. Curious how it all went so wrong (or right)? Tune in to find out 🎧✨

    WNSDY @ 7, Scented Gel Pens, and Team Busted VS McFly Ep.14

    This week, we’re joined for a double length episode by pop-rock favourites WNSDY @ 7 for a seriously fun chat. We put the band to the test with This or That, spiral into peak nostalgia over scented gel pens and Pepsi Max obsessions, and dive head-first into their love for McFly and Busted (yes, favourites are named 👀). Plus, we talk all about their latest music, what they’ve been working on recently, and what fans can expect from their upcoming shows. It’s chaotic, nostalgic, and full of laughs — exactly how we like it. Hit play and hang out with us. 🎧✨

    Busteds 'Psycho Girl', Listener Story Corner and Dennis the dog! Ep 13

    🚀 Galaxy Crashers is going full psycho (in the best way). This week, we’re crashing straight into Busted’s iconic “Psycho Girl”—breaking down the lyrics and why it still hits way too close to home. We've got this-or-that secretlwhich is secretly coded to the song. Things get even juicier as listeners send in their wild stories about psycho exes (thank you for your bravery 🫡), and Tay shares her own psycho girl moments—no filters, no regrets. Plus, we switch gears to gush about the newest addition to the Fletcher family 🐾💖 and what this new era means for everyone involved. It’s chaotic, confessional, and classic Galaxy Crashers—strap in.

    Saturday Night Chaos: McFly, Secret Parties & Busted in the Wild Ep 12

    his week on Galaxy Crashers, we’re blasting straight into McFly’s “Saturday Night”—unpacking underage drinking, messy parties, and the art of keeping secrets from your parents 👀🍻 We’ve got This or That as always, plus Busted in the Wild, where we ask one very important question: why is Charlie Simpson absolutely everywhere right now?! And because we love a little delusion, we’re also dreamcasting both band members into musical theatre roles. Honestly? Iconic behaviour. Trust us—this one is not to be missed.

    Strap in, Galaxy Crashers 🚀 — this week on we’re welcoming back our wonderful returning guest Steve, who you loved so much the first time that we simply had to bring him back again. This episode blasts us straight into the future as we deep-dive into “Year 3000” — unpacking that absolutely unhinged music video, the infamous triple-breasted women, THAT Jonas Brothers cover, and our wildly questionable predictions for what the year 3000 might actually look like. As always, we fire up a round of This or That, and the We Are Family segment makes its triumphant return with a jaw-dropping reveal about a McFly band member’s secret famous cousin 👀. Chaos, nostalgia, pop-punk time travel, and Steve energy — you don’t want to miss this one.
