"Donde esta el hombre?" We are continuing our spicy "Schizophonic Summer" journey with Part Two of Geri Halliwell's iconic debut album era! After reintroducing herself as a solo artiste in May 1999 with 'Look At Me''s flamboyant multi-character narrative (hello 'Bitch', 'Vamp', 'Virgin' and 'Sister'), Geri's now giving us three more distinct campaigns with the following chart-topping singles: 'Mi Chico Latino', 'Lift Me Up' and 'Bag It Up'. Joel and David revisit the lavish music videos, promo campaign, live performances, and b-sides. From the camp-as-tits 2000 BRIT Awards performance to serving Bond Girl realness sailing in Sardinia, frolicking with aliens in Malaga to manufacturing Girl Powder with sexy male dancers... each single had its own zest. There is truly so much to unpack! And if you haven't listened to Part One where we dived into Geri's solo debut with the bombastic 'Look At Me' and our "Schizophonic" album track highlights... you know what to do now!

Welcome to our Summer of "Schizophonic", pop fans, where what you see IS what you are getting! We are heading back to our school days of 1998 and 1999 to revisit the iconique debut solo album by Geri Halliwell. Arriving literally just one year after Geri dropped the bombshell of the century that she was leaving the Spice Girls - one of the planet's biggest pop girl groups ever - our Gezza went on to execute the greatest comeback and solo career debut there ever was. With pure bombast, confidence and sense of drama, this episode looks into one of the most exciting PR masterclasses known to our generation of music fans with Geri's transition from Ginger Spice to solo superstar. Joel and David kick things off with a deep dive into the debut single 'Look At Me' - an unapologetically camp statement of intent - and Geri's accompanying global press tour, before going into personal album highlights from "Schizophonic". Stay tuned for Part Two where we get into the chart-topping singles 'Mi Chico Latino', 'Lift Me Up' and 'Bag It Up'!

Pop fans, we totally feel your heart go (*whistle melody*) as soon as you saw this episode's title! It is a big swipe right from us as we break tradition to venture into the 2010s for this super special 10 year anniversary of Hilary Duff's last album, "Breathe In. Breathe Out.". This album has been on a colourful journey from 2012 through to 2015, resulting in a vibrant melting pot of mainstream Top 40 EDM-pop and country-pop. For Hilary Duff's first album in eight years, she tapped some of pop's best hitmakers from Tove Lo to Ed Sheeran and Toby Gad, ILYA and Savan Kotecha (who have worked with Beyonce, Ariana Grande and Britney). We revisit all the highlights from 'Chasing The Sun' and 'All About You' to 'Sparks', 'One In A Million', 'Tattoo', 'Confetti' and more! Join the JB - our resident platinum card-holding Hilary Duff stan - and David as we get out the choppy bob and pastel hair chalk to reminisce on this time in pop culture where we've swapped CD:UK for Shazam.

Happy Pride, everyone! After last weekend's joyous Mighty Hoopla festival, we simply had to jump on - with utterly fried vocal chords - to debrief and unpack our highlights with you! We're so excited to have the reactions and reflections from Dannii Minogue and incredible performers (and friends of the pod) Tom Aspaul, Pixie Lott, Amy Studt and Craig from the London Gay Men's Chorus who sang on the main stage with Samantha Mumba. This is the first time in our seven-year history where your RBAY boys have done a post-festival highlights episode but since there were so many moments that were euphoric and specific to us 2000s pop fans - it called for a special. From A*Teens to Heidi Montag, Ciara to Supersister and many more meauxments... we hope this recap transports you to the glitter and disco-filled ambience of Brockwell Park!

Ahead of A*Teens' eagerly-anticipated performance at Mighty Hoopla festival, your 2000s pop explorers Joel and David have gone back in the vaults to unearth one of our favourite episodes, celebrating the discography of this incredible Swedish pop group! After starting life as a teenage ABBA tribute pop group, this fab foursome quickly became a fully fledged pop act in their own right with massive bangers like 'Upside Down', 'Halfway Round The World' and 'Floorfiller'. Even opening for Britney on tour and securing appearances on Disney and Nickelodeon, growing a loyal global fanbase along the way. Back in 2021, we were so much more ambitious by covering three albums and a Greatest Hits release in one episode! So if you're unfamiliar with the work of Dhani, Sara, Amit and Marie - here's everything you need to know and more. We're sure you'd be bouncing off the ceilings by the end of the listen.

Before she rocks out on stage next month at Mighty Hoopla festival, British singer-songwriter Amy Studt takes a special trip down memory lane with Joel and David, reminiscing on her anthemic 2000s smash 'Misfit' and every aspect of her landmark debut album "False Smiles", the Gold-certified album which spawned four singles - including two UK Top 10 hits. Where the US market had Avril Lavigne and Hilary Duff, we were channelling all our teenage angst with Amy! Amy's rise to pop stardom sounds like something straight out of a movie. Enter a "grungy teen" from a seaside English town who loved to write songs, plucked from obscurity by music svengali Simon Fuller (the man behind Spice Girls and S Club 7) and placed in the studio with some of the industry's best pop songwriters and producers. Cue Karen Poole, Yak Bondy, David Eriksen, Cathy Dennis, Gary Barlow, Eliot Kennedy, and Rob Davis. This conversation is a real nostalgic snapshot of a teen pop star's life in the early 2000s. From legendary 19 Management Christmas parties with Amy Winehouse, Pop Idol stars and S Club 7, through to "CD:UK" and extravagant overseas music video shoots... and even the curious case of a Sheryl Crow cover. Proving she's so much more than 'Just A Little Girl', Amy also talks about how her artistry has evolved over the years with the 2008 alt-pop gem "My Paper Made Men" and avant-garde 2019 "Happiest Girl In The Universe" - and what's next for her.

Fighters, do you want to get crazy? Because this month marks 15 years of Christina Aguilera's "Bionic" era kicking off with the club banger 'Not Myself Tonight'. The Old Xtina of "Back To Basics" was gone and she's feeling brand new, embracing a futuristic and experimental electronic-pop chapter. 2010 was an epic year for our Caggie Aggie, not only was the new mum back stronger and sexier than ever with a new album but she's also making her film lead role debut with "Burlesque" (Has anybody looked up the air rights?) Joel and David pick things up in 2008 where Our Cagz was starting her new musical journey with the single for her Greatest Hits, 'Keeps Gettin Better'. From there begins the two-year voyage into "Bionic" with an eclectic, "crotch-stirringly exciting cast of collaborators" * that include Sia, Nicki Minaj, M.I.A., Peaches, Le Tigre, Ladytron, Santigold, Linda Perry, Tricky Stewart (Beyoncé, Mariah), Ester Dean (Rihanna), Polow Da Don (Ciara, Fergie), Claude Kelly (Kelly Clarkson, Jessie J) and more. From sex positive bangers like 'Woohoo' to strutting anthems like 'Prima Donna', 'Glam' and 'Vanity', through to left-field electronic-pop experiments ('Elastic Love', 'My Girls') and soaring ballads ('You Lost Me', 'Lift Me Up') - this album is definitely Caggie's most ambitious body of work. So let's get glam and hop in our electronic, supersonic rocket set for the year 2010 and make it pop-pop-pop! * = paraphrased from a Digital Spy review by Nick (Live Laugh) Levine Follow Right Back At Ya! https://www.instagram.com/rightbackpod/ https://twitter.com/rightbackpod https://www.facebook.com/rightbackpod Follow Joel https://www.instagram.com/dr_joelb/ https://twitter.com/DR_JoelB Follow David https://www.instagram.com/lovelimmy/ https://twitter.com/lovelimmy Email us rightbackpod@gmail.com

When Britney said 'I need time and space', we fully respected her wishes... which is why we have split this monumental "Britney" album era into two episodes. So, say 'hello' to Part 2. We are picking things up at in 2002 with the other singles from this era after deep-diving into 'I'm A Slave 4 U' and our album highlights in the last episode. Here, Joel and David compare the videos for 'Overprotected' and the 'Overprotected (Darkchild Remix)', and get into the visual storytelling and references behind the music. The "Crossroads" action is in full swing here with the gorgeous ballad 'I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman' (Dido fans, rise up!). And your RBAY boys also prepare to get 'nasty' to the dead rockeh 'I Love Rock & Roll' and 'Boys' singles - including the spicy single remix featuring Pharrell.

Is this thing on? Pop fans, we have been Anticipating this deep dive into one of Britney Spears’ most seminal albums: “Britney”. Arriving in 2001, ahead of her 20th birthday, our teen-pop sensation was growing up and is making sure the world is hearing what she has to say. Join Joel and David as they dive into this iconic body of work over a two-part episode. This was a massive era for our Brit. Following two record-breaking albums, a massive first world tour and signing a multi-million dollar deal with Pepsi, she’s also making her film debut with “Crossroads”. Here in Part 1, we focus on the industry-shaking lead single ‘I’m A Slave 4 U’ - which saw Britney unapologetically owning her sexuality and flaunting a new sound. We get into the music video, legendary 2001 MTV VMAs performance, her new image and styling and so much more. True to our chronological style, we dive into our favourite album highlights before we get to the other singles in the next episode.

Are we witnessing one of pop's greatest vindications right now? This month marks the 15th anniversary of Heidi Montag's "Superficial" - a fabulous album of 'all killers no fillers' that was largely misunderstood by the general public at the time. Fast forward to 2025 and the album finally cracked the Billboard 200 for the first time this week, thanks to the overwhelming support of fans and a long-overdue reappraisal, sparked by a rogue album track ('I'll Do It') going TikTok viral! This iconique body of work features contributions from A-list pop hitmakers like Cathy Dennis (Kylie, Britney), Steve Morales (Enrique Iglesias, Celine Dion), and more! Joel - our resident OG Heidi Montag stan - is coming into the spotlight on this one to share his favourite "Superficial" highlights and give us a guided tour of her pop gems like 'Body Language', 'Fashion' (originally by Lady Gaga), 'Blackout', 'More Is More', and 'Higher'. Rising to global stardom through MTV's hit reality series The Hills, Heidi Blair Montag and hubby Spencer Pratt have been a power couple in reality entertainment for almost 20 years. It has been wonderful to see the internet rally behind Heidi and Spencer. We are sending their family and everyone affected by the devastating California wildfires so much love in these times.

Are you ready to let yourself go and 'Get Right' with your Right Back At Ya! boys? We're about to sign you up to an all-inclusive 20th anniversary celebration of Jennifer Lopez's deliciously funky R&B album, "Rebirth". For over two decades and counting, J.Lo has consistently proven why she is one of pop's greatest living entertainers! From the blockbuster movies (hello "Monster-In-Law") to chart-topping albums and singles, hugely successful fragrance and clothing line; nobody was making a killing like her. Joel and David hop 'on the 6' time machine and whizz back to 2005, where Our Jennifer Lynn (as she's affectionately known on the pod) is making a fresh start after splitting with Ben Affleck the first time. The Bronx diva came back with one of her hottest records, 'Get Right' - thanks to the funk go-go genius producer Rich Harrison. This instant smash, complete with an unforgettable multi-character music video, symbolised Jenny showing up and showing off what she does best! With Fat Joe, Timbaland, Brandy, Darkchild, Marc Anthony, Danja and more involved; "Rebirth" really deserved to have been an even bigger album with more singles! #JusticeForRebirth Follow Right Back At Ya! https://www.instagram.com/rightbackpod/ https://twitter.com/rightbackpod https://www.facebook.com/rightbackpod Follow Joel https://www.instagram.com/dr_joelb/ https://twitter.com/DR_JoelB Follow David https://www.instagram.com/lovelimmy/ https://twitter.com/lovelimmy Email us rightbackpod@gmail.com

Stand up, Soldiers! We are kicking off 2025 strong with a celebration of Cheryl's monumental chart-topping debut solo album era. After seven years with Girls Aloud and winning hearts as a judge on The X Factor, our Nation's Sweetheart went all in with 'Fight For This Love' - not only a powerful statement in the midst of the media frenzy surrounding her personal life, but a killer debut solo outing! The album that followed, "3 Words", was exec produced by Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am - a major co-sign from one of the planet's biggest hitmakers at the time, which helped Chezza chart in countries Girls Aloud had never had a chance to crack before.

"Hi, it's us. You won't believe what we're doing." Pop fans, for our final episode of 2024 we absolutely couldn't miss celebrating 21 years of Victoria Beckham's final solo single (to date). Join Joel and David as they revisit one of their favourite solo Spice Girls eras: Victoria Beckham's double A-side single 'This Groove' / 'Let Your Head Go'. Two different vibes, two stunning music videos and live performance meauxments that dominated telly throughout December 2003 and January 2004. Posh went all out with the electro-pop dance banger 'Let Your Head Go' and the silky, R&B siren's bop 'This Groove', giving fans a taste of two potential bodies of work from her new record deal with Telstar Records. We revisit the lore of this era all the way through to the R&B-flavoured tracks exec produced by hip-hop mogul Damon Dash of Roc-A-Fella Records that were included on "The Réal Beckhams" DVD. Most infamously, 'Resentment', which was later covered by Beyoncé. What solo Spice Girls project should we revisit next? Let us know in the comments!

Pop fans, we've got one more festive season treat for you! Joel and David are back with a fun recap of a truly wild moment in television history. Let's head back to Christmas Day 2003 when Simon Fuller pulled out all stops for a one-off global competition: "World Idol". Hosted by Ant & Dec, this All Stars meets Eurovision style special brought together 11 Idol winners from around the world, including the UK's very own Will Young, American Idol Kelly Clarkson and Australia's own Guy Sebastian. Throw in some crazy judges comments for some extra drama (hello Simon Cowell and Pete Waterman!), plus, exclusive live performances from the one and only Victoria Beckham and Sir Elton John... and you've got one hell of a ride for Christmas and New Year's Day.

We are kicking off the year-end party season with a recap of Girls Aloud's brilliant 2008 ITV special, "The Girls Aloud Party". With comedy sketches - featuring appearances by Cilla Black, Paul O'Grady and more - as well as exclusive performances of songs from their "Out of Control" album; this was an imperial Girls Aloud era. There was truly something for everyone here - from performances of their well-worn hits like 'Something Kinda Ooooh' to 'Love Machine' through to more 'current' material like 'The Promise' and 'The Loving Kind', and duets with The Kaiser Chiefs and the very dishy (or so David thinks) James Morrison.

From Huddersfield to Bangkok, pop fans - are you ready for an adventure? Join Joel and David as they kick start a new ‘Discovering’ series where they each pick a hidden gem of an artist from the 2000s and select 5 songs from their catalogue for a taste test! Signed to Jive Records and launched in 1999, British pop starlet Ellie Campbell looked and sounded like a ready-made pop star here for the GMTV and Smash Hits audience! Despite having no formal singing or dance training, Ellie’s warm soulful tone and star quality was undeniable. The Yorkshire songstress worked with same hitmakers behind Steps (Pete Waterman, Mark Topham, Karl Twigg), launched a handful of singles - including the UK Top 30 smash ‘So Many Ways’ - and even found herself performing at the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras! Though she wasn’t in the pop game for long, Ellie’s bops are forever - and her self-titled album “Ellie” is a real gem! Before LISA from BLACKPINK, in the 2000s, the world had Thai pop princess Tata Young. Her crossover success in Japan, India, China and across Southeast Asia was pretty much unheard of. Thanks in huge part to her fun signature banger and your new favourite bratty anthem: ‘Sexy, Naughty, Bitchy’ (co-written by legendary pop songwriter Savan Kotecha, who has worked with Ariana Grande, Britney, One Direction, and Dannii Minogue). Tata’s catalogue of English tunes is top-tier, as she brings her Main Pop Girl Energy to songs that would be released in the West by Ashley Tisdale, The Cheetah Girls, Play and more. The writing credits on her three English albums read like a ‘who’s who’ of RBAY! royalty - Jamelia, Leona Lewis, Natasha Bedingfield, Samantha Jade etc. If you’re liking this ‘Discovering’ concept - let Joel and David know in the comments who you’d like us to cover next!

Get the eyeliner out, grab your guitars and throw on a pair of roughed-up Converse because we are getting dead pop-punky (but also dancefloor ready) for this episode! Joel and a very back-combed hair David are throwing back to The Veronicas' killer double-platinum-selling album, "Hook Me Up", first launched in 2007. This fun, heady, emotional and edgy body of work summed up the sound of our youth in the late 2000s, mixing pop, rock and electro with incredible, relatable lyrics. It spawned The Veronicas' best-known smash hit 'Untouched', gave them their first No.1 single, and gave us irresistible floorfillers like 'Take Me On The Floor' and 'Popular'. Whether you're rocking out to '4ever' or aching with long-distance love to the Kesha-penned 'This Love', this album has it all. Over a period of two years, this era took the talented Aussie twins to new heights across the globe, from touring the States to playing outside the iconic Hollyoaks pub, Dog In The Pond, and even co-presenting duties with Miley Cyrus, Ashley Tisdale and Zac Efron.
