Description
Welcome to Every Number One Ever! A revisionist history of pop music and culture from 1952 to now.
Over the next three years, friends and DAA stalwarts Matthew Leonard, Craig Lowe, and Liam Maloney are pruning the UK pop charts from day dot to now. Randomly selected number ones will be fired at them and either banished to the bin for all eternity or raised to the hallowed pantheon of pop after discussion, argument and general nonsense.
The discarded songs will be expunged from history and in their stead shall be one randomly selected number two single. Will it be Penny Lane, God Only Knows, Jean Genie? Or the Dexys Midnight Runner’s parody ’Come On England’? Only fate and a random spreadsheet function can know for sure!
So join us on our odyssey into pop as we try to correct some historical musical maladies and revitalise the once glittering UK pop chart.

For the last of our look backs across the pod, we invite on the lovely Dr Noah Henry who's been crunching the numbers and delivering the bad news. Who will be binmaster general? Whats our most hated year? Why oh why do we have X-Factor so much?
If you want to have a dig through the data, head over to patreon.com/enoepodcast to dig through all our grubby data.
For the second part of our retrospective, we open the floor to our dear listeners and find out what YOU want to know. What deviant questions do you have for us?
Now we've had a bit of time to climb down from our giddy final episode, we've come over a bit introspective. In the first of our wrap up episodes we wade back into the past few years 'work' and talk about all the things we got wrong. Expect bitter recriminations, sass and brutal honesty.
We all knew the day would arrive. This, ladies and gents and others, is our very final episode of the proper podcast recorded live at DOA Studios. Just a reminder not to unsubscribe just yet, as we've got some post mortem episodes coming in the new year.
OKLOVEYOUBYE!
Our penultimate show! And yes, you're right dear listener, we have had to do some really annoying strange maths to fudge it, so we're skimping on you, depriving you of two whole number ones! Don't blame us, blame Taylor Swift and her long-lasting oeuvre/egg.
Also, Merry Christmas <3
