About this listen
This week, Dangerous Dave cranks up the volume and dives headfirst into the glorious, unpredictable world of 90s one-hit wonders — those fleeting flashes of brilliance that dominated the charts before vanishing into pop culture legend.
In What Happened Way Back When, we rewind to the days when MTV, The Box, and Top of the Pops were king, and soundtracks were just as important as the films. Then, in a mega Dangerous Deep Dive, we cover 15 iconic tracks — from Lou Bega’s “Mambo No. 5” to Chumbawamba’s “Tubthumping,” the global “Macarena” craze, Eagle-Eye Cherry’s bittersweet “Save Tonight,” and many more — each with five fun facts you never knew you needed.
It’s Tubthumping vs Mambo No. 5 in Retro Rumble, we remember the ads that milked these hits, salute Shampoo in One Season Wonders, and give a little extra love to Eagle-Eye Cherry in Dangerously Underrated. We even debate if “Runaway Train” and “What’s Up?” hold their own against other 90s anthems in Better Than, Worse Than.
Next week, the masks go on and the vehicles transform as we tackle the 80s cartoon mashup masterpiece — M.A.S.K!
