Channel Orange Radio Show - The radio show with better music taste than The Guardian.
Sam Sandor and Maddie Wanklyn pick one album each week, and a guest decides whether or not it's better than the Guardian's album of the week. We talk about each of the albums and listen to the best and most interesting tracks from each.

Episode Thirteen - Dear Annie
Channel Orange
Episode thirteen of STAR Radio's Channel Orange radio show sees us talk with Miles about Rejjie Snow's Dear Annie followed by the Guardian's album of the week, the excellent 'Conflict of Interest' by Ghetts.
We're still winning 7-3 against The Guardian as it stands, but with two wins in a row for the guardian, the pressure is rising.

Episode Twelve - Chelsea Girl
Channel Orange
In episode twelve of STAR'S Channel Orange radio show, George talks with us about Nico's Chelsea Girl and the Guardian's pick: Nick Cave's Carnage. With our oldest recommendation yet, from a Velvet Underground collaborator, and another great pick from the Guardian, another close fight is in store.
The score sits uneasily at 7-2, as the Guardian have the chance to cement their comeback.

Episode Eleven - Just Cosmo
Channel Orange
In the eleventh episode of the Channel Orange radio show on STAR, our guest Liv judges between Cosmo Pyke's Just Cosmo, and the Guardian's pick: Arlo Parks' Collapsed in Sunbeams. Both debut releases, and both brilliant, this one will go down to the wire.
The score is 7-1, but with a strong effort like this, the tide could be turning.

In the fourth episode of STAR Radio's Channel Orange radio show, we talk with Lucie Duffy about Canadian 'surf-rock' band Peach Pit's first album; being so normal, followed by the guardian's album of the week, a real curveball; 'The Album' by BLACKPINK.
The score is 1-1 against The Guardian as it stands, but there's still all to play for, with The Guardian's choice of a kpop album perhaps giving us an advantage.
