Episode 41: Christmas Day Charts Special

Karl and Aidan head back to the Pod Lodge for a festive dive into the Christmas Day charts. In this Christmas special, they rewind through five classic years - 1975, 1985, 1995, 2005 and 2015 - to see what was topping the charts when the turkey was carved and the telly was on. From novelty and comedy records to rock anthems, chart pop and everything in between, it’s a snapshot of how tastes and traditions have shifted over the decades. Along the way, Karl and Aidan also each pick their favourite track from the rest of the Top 100 in each year. Expect nostalgia, surprises and plenty of festive chart chat. Perfect listening for the run-up to Christmas. 🎅🎶 Links 🎧 Spotify playlist of the songs covered today 🎸 Karl’s band, Davey Jones’ Locker 🌐 Aidan’s website ❤️ Listening to the podcast is all the support we need, but if you’d like to go a little further then you can make a donation to the show here .
