Another week on your favourite 2000s pop music podcast, a mystery: What happened to Liz McClarnon’s solo career? This week 20 years ago the former Atomic Kitten member got a top 5 hit and was never heard from again.
We delve into this promising career cut short as well as riding a white horse (that might be heroin) with Goldfrapp, discovering that two of Blazin’ Squad are secretly the most important producers of the 2020s and hearing from Chad Kroeger from Nickelback about why people hate the band so much.
