Author: Secret Suburbs Studios December 1, 2025 Duration: 1:01:53

In this episode, Spunky and Wolfman take on the impossible task: picking the greatest female singers from all the decades. From Aretha to Adele, from powerhouse vocals to pop perfection, we narrow it down to the 10 essential diva songs that must be added to our playlist. Expect passionate debates, surprising picks, and maybe a few high notes we shouldn’t have tried.

Then in our second segment, we roll out the red carpet for the “Diva Double-Threat Awards.”

Which female singers made the jump to acting—and actually nailed it?

Was Dolly Parton a true double-threat?

Was Madonna the ultimate Material and Matinee Girl?

Who gave Oscar-worthy performances, and who should’ve stuck to the mic?

It’s a glamorous, hilarious celebration of the queens who conquered both the stage and the screen. Tune in and tell us which diva stole your spotlight!

Ever find yourself in a heated debate over whether the original Star Wars outshines The Empire Strikes Back, or if a Big Mac truly holds up against a Whopper? Those are the kinds of timeless, oddly specific clashes that fuel The 70s vs The 80s. From Secret Suburbs Studios, this podcast dives headfirst into the cultural battleground defined by two iconic decades. Each episode is a deep, often hilarious, and surprisingly thoughtful dissection of the era's biggest rivalries, from the superhero showdown of Lou Ferrigno versus Christopher Reeve to the cereal aisle controversy of Froot Loops versus Trix. We're talking about the films, the TV shows, the fast-food feuds, and the pop culture phenomena that still spark arguments today. It's more than just nostalgia; it's a forensic and fun examination of what made these periods distinct, and why our allegiances to things like Rocky or Rocky IV, Bo & Luke or Coy & Vance, run so deep. You'll hear passionate cases built for each side, blending comedy with genuine cultural review, all while trying to settle the score on whether the '70s or the '80s ultimately wins. Tune in for a conversation that feels like hanging out with friends who take their bubble gum brands-Hubba Bubba versus Bubble Yum, naturally-very seriously. This podcast is for anyone who lived it, or for anyone curious about the decades that shaped so much of today's entertainment and society.
