The History of Nirvana Sep 30, 2026

Show notes

This year marks 35 years since Nirvana released their breakthrough album "Nevermind" and altered the trajectory of music history. With the words "Here we are now, entertain us," Nirvana introduced grunge to mainstream ears and almost overnight Kurt Cobain became the unwilling spokesperson for a generation. The pressure and unrelenting stomach issues led Kurt down a path of destruction that came to a devastating conclusion less than three years later.

The History of Milli Vanilli Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

When Svengali producer Frank Farian revealed that Milli Vanilli was a fake it nearly broke apart the world of pop music. The reaction from the media and the public was outrage tinged with racism and homophobia and the easy target for all the hate was the two young men hired to be the faces of the Euro-pop dance duo. It has taken 40 years for the world to realize that Rob Pilatus and Fab Morvan weren't the only ones to blame. In this episode a look back at the History of Milli Vanilli with help from Sarah Sahagian and Sadaf Ahsan from The Reheat podcast.
