It’s 1990, it’s Frankfurt Germany and a shadowy music producer is about to drop the biggest pop bombshell since Robbie left Take That.

In what talent-free 80s mime artists are already lip syncing is the 33rd episode of the CB Wallop Podcast, join Phil Jerrod and Phil Lucas as they discuss Milli Vannill - the big shouldered Euro-pop megastars who sold a bazillion records, won an armful of awards and then had to give them all back again.

Should they have read their record contract? Yes... yes they should.

Trigger Warning. Let’s face it - the 1980s were no picnic - but if you can get over the  hair/clothing/shoulder pad atrocities of the period you should be fine. There are also some very dodgy accents attempted in this episode for which we make no apology.
