A new album, a number one single in the Aussie charts and the youngest singer ever to get a star on the Hollywood walk of fame… What did you get up to when you were 21? Because all of this happened in just one week in the life of our patron saint, Ms Britney Jean Spears!

It wasn’t a bad week for Outkast either as they crack into the charts with the single ‘Hey Ya’, which would go on to be a mainstay on hot AC radio stations to this day!

Sadly the war on terror suffers a major blow this week 20 years ago with two bombings in Istanbul that kills over 30 people, including British Consul-General Roger Short, and injuring hundreds more.

In tech news the Theragun becalmed the latest tool in the microscopic war against infections.

And in sport, Johnny Wilkinson ruins the Wallabies World Cup Rugby campaign when he slots a field goal in extra time and takes the trophy back to the motherland in England. Back when Rugby was good!

We also revisit the whole “is Die Hard a Christmas movie” BS.

All that and loads more. Have a listen!
