Welcome back to The Giddy Carousel of Pop, a podcast about the 'so called' pop mag Smash Hits.

In this episode we are joined by voiceover, writer, composer and podcaster Emma Clarke, as we spin back to May 1982 for the confessions of a pre-teen pop fan.

Artists discussed include Associates, Toyah, Adam Ant, Echo & The Bunnymen and many more.

Read along with us.
