Fire up your iPod Nano - or Classic, if you had such a thing - as we turn the clock back to an era where the tunes were huge, the clubs were hopping, and... to be honest I kind of hate myself for writing that sentence. The music was REALLY GOOD, is what I'm getting at. Ace newsman, author, podcaster, runner, and friend Richard Chambers returns to NO ENCORE HQ to keep Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam company on a beautifully nostalgic, endlessly energetic journey. There's also room for film criticism, concert etiquette, and plenty of news. And a mention for Richard's upcoming marathon in support of Women's Aid - you can donate right here. ACT ONE: Some fun meandering chat about the Andre 3000 album, Richard's visit to the cinema for the Taylor Swift concert movie, and his jaunt to the 3Arena for an intriguing Belters Only experience. ACT TWO (15:34): News! Hall & Oates are out of touch, Formula 1 gets another superstar boost, Kid Rock and Donald Trump join forces, and Christmas songs make their early mark.
