“Pump Up The Volume” by M/A/R/R/S

Ever wonder what happened to those artists who gave us a single unforgettable song before vanishing from the charts? One Hit Thunder digs into that very mystery, hosted by musician Chris Fafalios of Punchline and Matt Kelly from Geekscape. Each episode pairs them with a different guest-bandmates, touring pals, or fellow musicians-to revisit a classic one-hit wonder. They don't just play the hit; they embark on a deep dive through the entire catalog of the artist or band behind it, uncovering hidden gems, bizarre B-sides, and the stories that explain their fleeting moment in the spotlight. The conversation is loose, funny, and informed by a genuine love for music, blending comedy with insightful critique. You'll hear the familiar thunderclap of that one massive track, followed by the surprising, often hilarious exploration of everything else that followed-or didn't. It’s a podcast for anyone who’s ever shouted along to a chorus on the radio and then asked, “But what else did they do?” This Geekscape production finds the rich, strange, and human details in the careers of pop culture’s most fascinating almost-weres.
