The most heterosexual chart yet (1 Oct 2004)

To all those people who say "OK, but why isn't there a straight pride"...here it is. This episode is for you. For some reason, on this week 20 years ago the music industry conspired to get every middle-aged man on their rosters to release music all in the same week, with only Alacazar left to offer any sort of gay counterpoint.

But it's still a great episode of the podcast reliving the pop music of the 2000s one UK top 40 singles chart at a time, with answers to the following questions:

• Which Britpop star went to prison for threatening to chop an air hostess' hands off?
• Which eccentric 60s legend once bought 8 tonnes of sand?
• Which dance icon lived next door to Paul McCartney (who forced him to leave the country)?
• Which indie band started a fight with the entire town of Worthing?
• How many fun facts about Muse is too many?

All that plus a lorra lorra laughs and tunes from Alcazar, Biffy Clyro, Brian Wilson, Donny Osmond, Fatboy Slim, Groove Armada, Ian Brown, Mark Knopfler, Muse, The Ordinary Boys and Paul McCartney
