On Periodical Prattle, hosts Ben and Gio delve into a vintage issue of NME Magazine each episode. What has changed or stayed the same in music culture? What news or artists have slipped beneath the cracks in the decades since? Did the band that NME hyped as the second-coming ever actually live up to that praise? Listen to find all of that out and more! The show also features Gio educating Ben on Goth culture, slowly but surely turning this baby-bat into an elder goth.

Monday, 7 June, 2021
On this week's Periodical Prattle, Ben and Gio go back to February 17, 2017 to talk about the Pet Shop Boys! They received the NME's Godlike Genius award in 2017, which leads into a deep discussion into their remarkable career. Ben and Gio also spend some time in the present by going into the line-up for California goth music festival Cruel World, and give a hearty recommendation to Rose Matefeo's BBC3 comedy Starstruck. They also get into some wild tangents which we'll let you hear for yourself, and they wrap it all up with a talk of 1996's Big Night, directed, written and starring Stanley Tucci.Timestamps:Cruel World festival (2:57)Starstruck (12:10)Box office of February 17, 2017 (27:30)NME Magazine: Pet Shop Boys (1:05:40)Big Night (1:36:04)
