  • The Power of the Trio (ft. Trousdale live at USC)

    The Power of the Trio (ft. Trousdale live at USC)
    Oct 3 2025
    There's no lead singer in Trousdale. The trio of Quinn D'Andrea, Georgia Greene, and Lauren Jones, has shared vocal duties equally since they started singing together as students at the University of Southern California's Thornton School of Music. Since then, they've touring the world and released a sophomore album, Growing Pains, that features the trio's impeccable harmonies over 70s-inflected country-rock grooves. In this episode, Trousdale returns to their alma mater to play acoustic versions of "Growing Pains" and "Secondhand Smoke" and then speak to Professor Nate (plus an audience of music students) about how they forged their indivisible sound. Songs Discussed Trousdale - Growing Pains, Over and Over, Lonely Nights, Movie Star Jackson Browne - Doctor My Eyes MIKA - Grace Kelly Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Doja Cat is the new Janet

    Doja Cat is the new Janet
    Sep 30 2025
    This summer, one singular artist could be heard everywhere from the new Cardi B album to the TikTok charts: Janet Jackson. The incomparable Queen of Pop has had her fingerprints all over pop music for the past few months, and it’s never been more apparent than on Doja Cat’s “Jealous Type.” The lead single from Doja’s new album Vie has all the hallmarks of the Janet Jackson sound, from breathy and percussive vocals to nods to iconic production from Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. This episode of Switched on Pop, we go on a journey guided by Janet, and discover the implicit connections to Doja Cat – the so-called “queen of pop-rap” – in the process. Vote for Switched On Pop in this year's Signal Awards! We're nominated for Best Music Podcast and Best Original Score/Music, linked here. Thank you! Songs discussed: Janet Jackson – Someone To Call My Lover Sabrina Carpenter – House Tour Cardi B, Janet Jackson – Principal (feat. Janet Jackson) Doja Cat – Jealous Type Janet Jackson – What Have You Done For Me Lately Janet Jackson – Nasty Janet Jackson – Feedback Janet Jackson – What About Prince – 1999 Janet Jackson – Throb Janet Jackson – Control Janet Jackson – When I Think Of You Janet Jackson – Go Deep Doja Cat – Cyber Sex Doja Cat – Rules Doja Cat – Boss Bitch Doja Cat – Woman Doja Cat – Agora Hills Janet Jackson – Let’s Wait Awhile Janet Jackson – Escapade Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Stockholm syndrome: Why we can't resist Swedish pop (ft. Zara Larsson)

    Stockholm syndrome: Why we can't resist Swedish pop (ft. Zara Larsson)
    Sep 23 2025
    How does a country of 10 million people dominate the global pop charts? From ABBA's Eurovision breakthrough to Max Martin's methodical hit-making, Sweden has quietly engineered a kind of musical Stockholm Syndrome: we've all become captives to their sound without realizing it. Listen to the crystalline vocal production and deceptively simple chord progressions in tracks by Lisa, Childish Gambino, and Addison Rae, and you're hearing Sweden's sonic fingerprint so embedded in pop's DNA that it now defines the genre itself. We sit down with pop star Zara Larsson to explore her love letter to home, "Midnight Sun." As she puts it, "I can't really leave Sweden; it's just something that's like a part of who I am," a sentiment that captures how Swedish pop's unique blend of melancholy and euphoria, mirroring the country's extreme seasons, has made us all willing prisoners of Stockholm's musical empire. Songs Discussed Lisa ft. Rosalia: "New Woman" Childish Gambino: "Lithonia" Addison Rae: "Fame Is a Gun" Bleachers: "Tiny Moves" Zara Larsson: "Midnight Sun" Robyn: "Show Me Love" Robyn: "Dancing on My Own" Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit" Brad Mehldau "Smells Like Teen Spirit" Learn more about your ad choices.
