Rock Chick of the Century
If you’ve ever glanced at our Last.fm playlist, then you’ll know our taste in music is eclectic and probably not up to anyone’s standards. Some would even go so far as to say we have bad taste in music, and I would argue… no, actually, that’s probably fair.
If you’re a last.fm user and haven’t added us as a friend please feel free to do so. We frequently find cool and interesting music to listen to just by peeking at what others are playing. As podcasters, the site also provides some cool insight for us - did you know for example, that people who listen to Sidepodcast also check out Maurice Hamilton’s show and the Renault podcast too? Okay, maybe not that insightful then.
Dancing like there’s no one there
Nevertheless, despite already publicly showing our poor taste, we put our necks on the line, and decided to pick out some podsafe songs to play during our pre-race chats on the Parade Lap show. Whilst our DJing skills leave a lot to be desired, some of the songs we have played have been real gems. We’ve always made the track information available on the Sidepodcast Music page, but awhile back, Dan Brunell suggested we go one step further.
Apple’s iTunes offers the ability for anyone to create an iMix, with which I can pick out songs from the catalogue, put them in a playlist and suggest them to you. Therefore I’ve created a Sidepodcast iMix [iTunes link] containing many of the artists we’ve played during our shows this year. That includes The Parade Lap, various mini series and any music used in videos.
If you ever heard a track you liked and fancied grabbing a copy for yourselves, please do check it out. Each one is just 79p (from the UK store), we don’t make any commission from sales, we just like to spread the love to artists who are forward thinking enough to let us play their songs on our shows.

Does that mean we have to have sidepodcast: the reality show to find the star?

Get Lewis to do it - he seemed pretty good at flying above the stage earlier this year. [who's laughing now?! ]
If the 2008 season was a pantomine, we could yell to Sutil “Look out! He’s right behind you!”

Would Massa be the baddie and Ron Dennis the dame?

This is starting to sound like Christine’s queen’s speech from last year. She had Bernie as the baddie and I seem to remember someone (’me’) getting into trouble for putting Franck in as the good fairy.

You know I’m kind of rehearsing my questions before the panel so that I am prepped and ready. I’ve tried to keep the questions related to up-to-date topics and I’m pretty sure you’ll like the Killler Question. I just tried to read it now and I started laughing
Yes, I ever so slightly turned into Giggles before the show has even started

Hi, Christine
Recently, I discovered an interesting German Surf Music Band named (You will not believe): RUBENS AND THE BARRICHELLOS…
I have their album in my ipod and UPLOADED one music to your listen.
