Pause and Play it Forward is a podcast by Nicola Greenbrook and Rosie Kendrick about music, old and new, and how it makes us feel.
We're the nostalgia-meets-now music podcast for anyone who loves discovering, rediscovering and chatting about great music. No music snobbery. No sticking to one decade. Just us, Nicola and Rosie, having a chat about the songs that soundtrack our lives.
We start with our Track of the Week, each sharing the songs we've been listening to and why they've been on repeat. Then there's a themed Top Five; we each bring three songs based on a theme, chosen completely independently with no tactical texting or sneaky hints, and somehow negotiate our way to one glorious Top Five on that theme.
Every week we build a brand-new mixtape featuring every track we’ve talked about.
This is the podcast for music lovers who are always on the hunt for new music, or old, but don’t have time to dig around for it.
Join us for new discoveries, music memories and lots of laughs.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
Hello, and a warm welcome to Season 5 of Pause and Play it Forward! We’re super excited to be back for Episode 1.
PAPIF is a nostalgia-meets-now music podcast for music lovers who’d love to reconnect.
There’s no fixed era, no pretension and there’s no limits (no no no no). Just a warm (and quite often giggly) chat about how music makes us feel.
