Season 2, Episode 22 - Is Live Aid Philadelphia Overrated? Part 2 (Band/Live Aid Part 5)

November 30, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 70.3 MB

The Epic Finale to the unexpected miniseries in which Vince, Neil, Jeremy, and Wayne discuss Band Aid, USA For Africa, and Live Aid in way more detail than is necessary.  From rating Phil Collins to re-enacting a Duran Duran interview about that awful, awful note. And a completely necessary digression to Peter Gabriel, who wasn't even there.

Season 2, Episode 21 - Is Live Aid Philadelphia Overrated? (Band/Live Aid Part 4)

October 31, 2023 15:00 - 1 hour - 72.3 MB

Whilst Live Aid Wembley was giving us Sting on a lute, over the pond in Philadelphia, a stoned Ozzy Osbourne was belting out Paranoid with Black Sabbath. And things just get better...

Season 2, Episode 20 - Is Live Aid Wembley Stadium Overrated?

July 04, 2023 01:00 - 1 hour - 81.1 MB

It's our 50th Episode! In this bumper-length special episode, we go act-by-act, hour-by-hour through the Live Aid Wembley performance from the summer of 1985, and we break out into spontaneous terrible Sean Connery impressions. We feed Queen to the Overrated Machine, question why Sting is ever allowed on stage, and take The Who to task for their poetry.  It's a wild, unruly show, and it's surely what Bob Geldolf would have wanted if he had any idea of who we are, which he doesn't.  Or does...

Season 2, Episode 19 - Is USA for Africa: We Are the World? Overrated? (Band/Live Aid Part 2)

May 24, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 72.8 MB

In this jumbo-sized episode, we mop up Band Aid's Do They Know It's Christmas? by taking a look at who wasn't on the recording, and we come up with a few conspiracy theories that probably don't touch reality at any point. Then we feed USA for Africa to the voracious Overrated Machine, and wonder (rather cynically) if the money from these charity projects reached Ethiopia, if long-term help was put in place, and if ultimately all that was achieved was to create a monster in the abomination t...

Season 2, Episode 18 - Is Band Aid: Do They Know It's Christmas? Overrated? (Live Aid Part 1)

April 23, 2023 23:00 - 49 minutes - 34.4 MB

In the first part of our multi-episode deep dive into Band Aid/USA For Africa/Live Aid Wembley & Philadelphia, we head back to the winter of 1984 and look at Bob Geldolf's & Midge Ure's passionate response to the Ethiopan famine, the charity single Do They Know It's Christmas? by the superband Band Aid. And Jeremy is with us!  Hooray!

Season 2 Episode 17 - Are Photographic Album Covers Overrated? Part 3

January 04, 2023 20:00 - 1 hour - 52.2 MB

We conclude our mini series on photographic album covers with a look at controversial album covers. We discuss Grunge babies and flannel shirts, heroin and capitalism, David Bowie's testicles, and those Scandinavian black metal idiots who burned down churches. Content warning: suicide, heroin addiction, inappropriate imagery, Wayne's beard.

Season 2 Episode 16 - Are Photographic Album Covers Overrated? Part 2

December 14, 2022 20:00 - 1 hour - 61.5 MB

Album covers are great, and so varied, and so integral to the way we used to experience music. The photo on the album cover of Rumours by Fleetwood depicts beautiful Californian Stevie Nicks in her classic and iconic Rhiannon persona, and lanky Brit drummer Mick Fleetwood in a pony tail and with two big balls dangling between his legs. As Neil frantically shovels mountains of coal into the yawning, hungry furnace of the increasingly malevolent Overrated  Machine, and Wayne rants about how m...

Season 2 Episode 15 - Are Album Covers Overrated? Part 1

November 11, 2022 23:00 - 1 hour - 54.4 MB

This time round, as Neil  frantically works the bellows and turns all the dials on the Overrated Machine to 11, and Wayne's lapses of memory begin to become a very real problem, and Vince exhausts all his patience and can't even tell 12 inches from 33 revolutions, and we all ponder on what exactly awaits us on the long, lonely highway at night, and we can't get to grips with just how big The Eagles are, and... well, it's quite the episode.

Season 2 Episode 14 - Is MTV Overrated? Part 2

October 02, 2022 17:00 - 1 hour - 53.9 MB

In the second and final part of our look back at MTV and the music video revolution, Neil enthuses about George Michael's phenomenal success as a respected singer-songwriter;  Wayne admits he completely out of his old white dude depth when it comes to hip hop but gamely tries to rate Run DMC; and Vince gives run downs of the most popular MTV videos of the '80s and '90s ... and confesses he has no idea about a great deal of them.

Season 2 Episode 13 - Is MTV Overrated? Part 1

September 01, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 65 MB

MTV was launched in August 1981, and formed the music TV backdrop of our generation. But was it overrated? How much of it can we remember? What were the best videos? And those hot ladies with guitars in that Robert Palmer video - where are they now? We look at The Buggles Video Killed the Radio Star, and Tine 'TT' Turner's What's Love Got to Do With It? as we run down the history of MTV in its early years and try to determine through Neil's precision-tooled Overrated formula if any or all o...

Season 2 Episode 12 - Is Punk Overrated? (Part 2)

July 03, 2022 18:00 - 1 hour - 45.9 MB

Vince, Neil and Wayne continue their journey through the mosh pits and gritty urban streets of punk rock from San Francisco to London as punk mutates. Wayne was not wearing pants when this was recorded. Neil lost his audio on the Dead Kennedys section. Vince nibbled on croissants and sipped cupasoups. That's how goddamn hardcore punk we are.

Season 2 Episode 11 - Is Punk Overrated? (Part 2)

July 03, 2022 18:00 - 1 hour - 45.9 MB

Vince, Neil and Wayne continue their journey through the mosh pits and gritty urban streets of punk rock from San Francisco to London as punk mutates. Wayne was not wearing pants when this was recorded. Neil lost his audio on the Dead Kennedys section. Vince nibbled on croissants and sipped cupasoups. That's how goddamn hardcore punk we are.

Season 2 Episode 11 - Is Punk Overrated? (Part 1)

June 21, 2022 23:00 - 1 hour - 56.9 MB

Vince, Neil and Wayne gob at the Establishment, stick two fingers up at the future and instead decide to get pissed and destroy. In Part 1 we look at the birth of punk across the pond with the Ramones, then find punk in rude health in London with the Sex Pistols. Never mind the podcast, it's overrated.

Season 2, Episode 10 - Is Vietnam Overrated? Part 2

May 31, 2022 15:00 - 1 hour - 50.3 MB

Vince and Neil take a second tour of duty and head into the heart of darkness, populated by Bruce Springsteen, Paul Hardcastle, Ronald Reagan, Spitting Image, Sylvester Stallone and Wham!  Will they survive? And what sort of reception will they return to? 

Season 2 Episode 9 - Is Vietnam Overrated? (Part 1)

May 22, 2022 10:00 - 55 minutes - 37.9 MB

Vince and Neil go deep in the shit and ponder all things Vietnam War in the first of two episodes looking at the conflict and its impact. This episode: Martha and the Vandellas and Jimmy Cliff, Action Man, an unwinnable war, TV news, shady government shenanigans, and drugs.

Season 2 Episode 8 - Is Bond Overrated? Part 2

March 08, 2022 17:00 - 1 hour - 51.8 MB

In the second and sexiest and most thrilling part of our mission to look at all things 007, Secret Agents Barrett (shaken) and Stadon (not stirred) fall out of aircraft without parachutes, flirt with MILF secretaries and fight insane criminal masterminds on remote volcanic islands as they discuss Bond toys, Warren Beaty, Paul McCartney's syntax, Adele, and the future of the Bond franchise.

Season 2, Episode 007 - Is Bond Overrated? Part 1

February 25, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 49 MB

With Jeremy on a secret mission for M, agents Barrett and Stadon don immaculately tailored tuxedos, wrestle with giant steel-toothed psychopathic henchmen, and then, with a raised eyebrow and a deadpan quip, they bed the world's sexiest women. We quaff vodka martinis (shaken, not stirred) and discuss Roger Moore Bond's sartorial taste; Bond films on the telly when we were kids; why Bond villains construct their secret bases out of the world's most incendiary materials, and much, much (Roger...

Season 2, Episode 6a - 'I Feel Fine' by The Beatles

February 18, 2022 20:00 - 15 minutes - 10.7 MB

Is I Feel Fine Overrated? (No!) As an offshoot of our main show, we discuss a Beatles track and Vince fills in the gaps, reading from Ian MacDonald's unsurpassed 'Revolution in The Head - The Beatles' Records and The Sixties'. This time we take a look at the infectious and upbeat 'I Feel Fine',  the Fabs' eighth single, which was a hit in late November and into December 1964. It was the 5th highest selling single of the year! Neil attempts to outfox Jeremy with a Beatles question (or two...

Season 2, Episode 6 - Is Christmas Overrated? (20th December 2021) Merry Christmas! In our bumper festive show, we're joined again by Neil (wearing a horrible jumper) as we rather blasphemously ask: Is Christmas Overrated? We pull crackers, quaff eggnog and mulled wine, and munch merrily on mince pies as we discuss and rate: 'Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree' by Brenda Lee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=is4NQkUN3AI 'Christmas Wrapping' by The Waitresses https://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

This time (in the spirit of Halloween), we take a look at George Harrison's spooky contribution to the sprawling White Album, 'Long, Long, Long'. Vince attempts to outfox Jeremy with a Beatles question (or two) from The B...
