Russell and Rebekah
Dad Educates Daughter
A Podcast where a Dad educates his Daughter on 80s music now that she's old enough to appreciate the songs and videos that she used to associate as outdated, rubbish music when being subjected to it in the car on the way to school. Each week Rebekah will listen to some 80s musicians her Dad, Russell, recommends and will then discuss on the Podcast what she thought of the songs, videos and image of the musicians. Russell will share information on chart placing and overall success of the singer/band. We will find out if Rebekah thinks the music has stood the test of time as she gives her verdict...
