Our first listener-requested Patreon episode, as we go in search of U2's maligned mid 90s electronic black sheep, Pop, discuss what it's like to experiment as the world's biggest band at the time, and the drastic sonic differences caused by the absence of Larry Mullen Jr, as well as why this album never gets talked about or played.
Along the way, we talk about William Burroughs, The Smashing Pumpkins and Garbage, why 90s albums are so long and front-loaded, the history of U2, touring, why this album should have been shorter, and featuring a song from Batman Forever, and a gentleman called Flood.
