Every Number One Ever

For the last of our look backs across the pod, we invite on the lovely Dr Noah Henry who's been crunching the numbers and delivering the bad news. Who will be binmaster general? Whats our most hated year? Why oh why do we have X-Factor so much? If you want to have a dig through the data, head over to patreon.com/enoepodcast to dig through all our grubby data.

For the second part of our retrospective, we open the floor to our dear listeners and find out what YOU want to know. What deviant questions do you have for us?

Now we've had a bit of time to climb down from our giddy final episode, we've come over a bit introspective. In the first of our wrap up episodes we wade back into the past few years 'work' and talk about all the things we got wrong. Expect bitter recriminations, sass and brutal honesty.

We all knew the day would arrive. This, ladies and gents and others, is our very final episode of the proper podcast recorded live at DOA Studios. Just a reminder not to unsubscribe just yet, as we've got some post mortem episodes coming in the new year. OKLOVEYOUBYE!

Our penultimate show! And yes, you're right dear listener, we have had to do some really annoying strange maths to fudge it, so we're skimping on you, depriving you of two whole number ones! Don't blame us, blame Taylor Swift and her long-lasting oeuvre/egg.   Also, Merry Christmas <3

Only 2 more episodes to go. Its getting down to the absolute dregs... or is it? Is there anything astonishing left in the grab bag of number ones? Or, come Christmas day, will Santa's sack (oo er) be found containing nothing but a lump of coal, a fluffy scotch egg, and a one-week Westlife? Only time (and the final episodes) will tell.

We are WAY into single digits now. There's so little time left. If you are starting here you are an absolute lawless individual - and we're here for it! 1994 was the YEAR. That's all I'm saying. No spoilers.

What would have happened if members of Take That were able to quantum leap? What would the world be like if Liam were allowed to name Cocteau Twins songs? And who was responsible for teaching Dickie V to spell? All this plus other stuff in one of our final ever episodes. Just a handful to go!

Huge apologies to all of those of Trumptonshireites who hold ol' Windy in high regard. But he is a hungry bottom and you all know it. I think this is supposed to be a music podcast but we're so far from the beaten track now that its taken on a mind of its own. Not many episodes to go!

I would use the word "slop" if it wasn't so tied to AI. Alas, everything in this show was crafted by human hands and displays all the infinite gradations of fallibility that we poor flesh and blood mortals display on the daily. SLOP I SAY! If only it were more simple, more pure, more and wasn't reliant on taking such chances...

SEX! Yes, lets see if we type that into the episode description if we get a bump in numbers. Also the episode title mentions holes and looks a bit german so... you know. 

A century and a half into the great project and you think we'd have the measure of one another by now. Yet we can still surprise one another. Craig comes out of left field with a wild opinion, Liam hates something but votes for us, and Matt (just like quasimodo) can't stand the bells.

In these troubled times let these descriptions be a lighthouse, a beacon, a big... thing I suppose, that can always be relied on to be entirely irrelevant and irreverent. WILLIES! There's also a podcast you can listen to as well as read this. Its episode 152 - come on, get on with it. Not many left now!

As this train trundles to the end of the line we appear to be picking up speed. Thats probably because loads of the bulkheads have fallen off, the windows are all smashed, and the electrics are totally shot. But part of that means we go on long circular rants like this, all for your amusement. OKLOVEYOUBYE!

A bumper episode this week, recorded in person no less! This is why you shouldn't get us all together very often; we just rant and rant! The most important thing this week? I could spoil it, but I shan't... but there's gonna be an announcement... soon my darlings...

This weeks the staff at ENOE Towers dredge through another 9 pieces of random nonsense from pop history, they deal with awful humans, and Liam mentions morse code fists (but never explains it). Plus we fall in love with Jim Dale and most particularly Jim Dale's best fans.

Less than 15 episodes to go, we'll be done by xmas. Will you miss us? Will you be as thankful as we are to get to the very end of the grand project? Some of these songs are getting OLD now. Number 3 is like getting punched in the face with a vodka redbull. No. Thank. You. Just keep swimming. We'll get to shore soon enough.

Let's shed all pretence of this being anything other than glib marketing. For some reason, episode 145 spiked with listeners. In this description I mentioned kung fu, ancient wisdom, craft (maybe its a beer thing), being nobs, and the title mentioned love eggs. I wonder if we'll get another massive spike (ooo er missus) if I put the same words in again. Have we discovered some magic formula? That...

Dropping into your Monday morning like the inevitable pret croissant and commuter traffic, the boys hope to  ring mirth, merriment and memories of Moss side to your day.

Honestly, the boys deserved their luck this week. They really can't be trusted. Or maybe like the ancient wisdom of drunken kung fu, they're actually masters of their craft and merely trying to wrong foot you. Or maybe they're just nobs.

We need to offer a public apology for Liam's use of the phrase that became the title of this week's drop from ENOE Towers. He'd had a packet of smarties and a froob and was far too aroused by the whole thing. Also, fear not dear listener, Craig did indeed develop a lovely tan. Plus we review some music.

We've got less than 20 episodes to go. As the grand project draws to a close, we encounter a baldie, a scallywag, a plastic lady, another lady, and, as we cover from last week's spicy debate, let us all collect our heads, we ask just who IS the most famous cherry? 

I think if the ENOE brigade were ever going to court controversy, this is the episode to do it. No we're not making up spurious lies about pop stars, suggesting possible sex scandals, or the length of x's widge. Not today! Instead, we're asking the real questions, the important questions: sauces, condiments, gravies, and jous. Where do YOU stand? We'd normally edit this down but there's too much t...

Another week, another nine tracks. We're getting down to the wire now aren't we! Scary stuff! What will we all do when this is done? Go about our lives?! How is one to cope?!

Its not Moby Dick, but its certainly a whale of a tune that we encounter this week. Its BIG. But is that a good thing? Plus we show just how little the lads know about the lady-based reproductive system.
