S2E5 - Mixed Gender Pop Groups: S Club 7 (Overrated) & Liberty X (Underrated) - with Sophie Davies

Joined by Sophie Davies from the It's an S Pod Thing! podcast - which analyses S Club 7's various TV shows - we ponder whether the band's music holds up and hear about how the placing of some their songs in the TV show negatively impacted Sophie's opinion about them! 

Unfairly labelled "Flopstars" Liberty X, runners-up of the 2001 TV show Popstars, are also in contention this week - as it turns out they have more bangers than you might think...

Follow Sophie on Twitter @ItsSophieDavies. As well as It's an S Pod Thing!, Sophie also hosts the podcast Smashed Prawns in a Milky Basket, focused on the work of "comedy writer/performer/director/all-round genius Julia Davis". 

S Club 7 storming out of an interview with Claudia Winkleman is on YouTube. The Josh Weller parody of "the rap verse in the middle of the song" is on Twitter. You can also find Kevin Simm's tear-inducing The Voice audition on YouTube.
