Rachel was so great, I don’t quite know what The Observer will be without her
Wonderful and moving tribute by @timadamswrites.bsky.social to Rachel Cooke, the brilliant Observer journalist who also frequently lit up the pages of the Guardian Weekly, who has died at the age of 56.

Had a lovely time chatting about 90s boybands with @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social. The results are up now (apols to Boyzone)
🚨NEW🚨 Boy bands were a big deal in the ‘90s, with Take That paving the way for hundreds of different groups. From Westlife, to 5ive to plenty you haven’t heard of or whose songs are forgettable, sorry Boyzone. @mcragg.bsky.social joins @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social to discuss 👉 linktr.ee/talk90stome

Banger of a @talk90stome.bsky.social episode with @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social and @joemuggs.bsky.social.

I learned plenty more about the wild world of The KLF!

It’s a fascinating listen about creativity, challenging the norm and relentlessly putting stuff out there until enough’s enough.

The KLF episode of @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social's Talk 90s To Me is as gloriously bonkers as you'd expect it to be. Although it ends with an element of pathos.
