Pop’s reigning IT girl — and mother of the pod — JADE adds a Tiny Desk Concert to her ever-growing list of debut-era milestones. But does her high-concept performance style translate to an intimate, stripped-back set?

Meanwhile, Ben and Mikey dive deep into new releases from Millennial Mothers Kesha and Charli XCX (for longer than the tracks actually run) before rallying in defence of overdog Harry Styles and his divisive dance moves.

Queer is a full list of what was discussed:

In this week’s bonus episode, Ben and Mikey ask: what do the Met Gala and The Celebrity Traitors have in common? They unpack the season 2 cast reveal, debate whether Kylie Minogue’s life story really needs a three-part documentary, and attempt to answer the all-important question: what exactly is an echelon?

Plus, the boys share what they’ve been reading, watching, and obsessing over this week.

Ben & Mikey’s ultimate Queens of Pop are back with new tracks. Madonna teams up with Sabrina Carpenter, while Gaga delivers original songs for The Devil Wears Prada 2 soundtrack — including a collab with Doechii. But the real question is: will we ever get the Madonna x Gaga moment the community deserves?

Elsewhere, the boys get into it: has Kacey Musgraves perfectly captured the post-break up experience? Are we seeing Melanie C in her Sporty Spice prime? And what do we like — and dislike — about the trend of remix albums?
