The Mild Mannered Army Episode 36 - Leaving the Community
This episode takes a different approach.
No edits. No theme music. No carefully placed clips.
Just a conversation between Paul and Nick—two longtime Britpop obsessives—looking back on the scene that shaped them. Using The Birth and Impact of Britpop as a springboard, we reflect on our personal connections to the music, the myths that fuelled the era, and how our views have evolved over time.
We talk about:
What we still love (and what we don’t)
The bands that meant the most
How Britpop feels now, decades later
Why some things are best left messy
It’s raw, nostalgic, sometimes critical—but always honest.
If Britpop ever meant something to you, this one’s for you.
