The Giddy Carousel of PopAuthor: The Giddy Carousel of Pop
Welcome aboard The Giddy Carousel of Pop! We are a Smash Hits appreciation podcast dedicated to the swingorilliant British pop magazine which ran from 1978 to 2006. In each episode, we take an old issue of Ver Hits (usually from the 1980s but may slip a year or two either side of that) and discuss whats on its pages, looking at whos riding high on the carousel and whos heading down the dumper. We always have a guest to help us along the way, so well be talking to the readers, the writers, and who knows, maybe even the odd pop star who appeared in its pages. Hang on tight!
