A podcast delving into 101 more amazing songs from the 1980s that dealt with the threats posed by nuclear war.
You'll hear us discuss the biggest hits of the decade (did you even know they were about nuclear war?), songs that you might have forgotten and that need to be heard again, and songs that you may never heard.
In season 1 we discussed many of the 80s biggest songs and lesser known songs from around the world. We were joined by very special guests from the world of music and writing. In season 2, we carry on with the hits and explore some deeper cuts from some brilliant artists.
Every genre of 80s music gets a look-in: punk, new wave, funk, soul, rock, heavy rock, indie, reggae, disco. We have already covered music from Japan, Chile, South Africa, Nigeria, Europe. Who knows what lies in store this year?
We will be discussing the songs from a musical and cultural perspective. What else was happening in the world of television and literature to help paint this nuclear landscape?
With every podcast, we will update our Spotify and Apple playlist with the songs we are going to discuss. Have a listen to the tunes, and then the chat, or the chat.

Musik, filosofi och autofiktiv biografi.
Podden som ibland är musikhistoria, ibland samhällstillvänd agitation och ibland en utökad självkritik.
Ursäkta röran - vi bygger om vi kan. Ett torn av sten av kött och ben.
Om det viktigaste som finns. Musik.
Varje avsnitt börjar i en poplåt. Den som är världens bästa.
Varje avsnitt slutar också.
9 av 10 avsnitt har manus, regi och en brist på redaktör som sätter gränser för innehåll och omfattning.
1 avsnitt av 10 är någon sorts samtal.
Ingen reklam. Ingen produktplacering.
Vi förenas i kärleken till musiken och lägger allt annat åt sidan en stund. För musik är trots allt det bästa.
Av och med Nils Karlsson
