This is the glittery grand finale of our three-part deep dive and oral history of Rachel Stevens' "Come And Get It" album, one of the greatest pop albums of the 2000s. This episode is packed with exclusives that no S Club and Rachel fan can go without knowing!

In this episode, your zesty 2000s pop explorers Joel and David get into all the album tracks (like 'Crazy Boys' and the Xenomania bops 'Nothing Good About This Goodbye' and 'Funny How').

We dive into the glamorous album photoshoot by fashion photographer Morten Laursen, myth bust stories around potential singles, Rachel's unreleased songs from "Come And Get It" sessions and 2015 recordings with Richard X and Hannah Robinson, and deeply ponder... 'What would a third Rachel Stevens album sound like?'

This episode features Peter Loraine of Fascination Management (the "Godfather of British Pop" and former Marketing Director at Rachel's label Polydor), Richard X and Hannah Robinson (who did 'Some Girls' and 'Crazy Boys'), Barry Stone of The Alias (formerly Jewels & Stone, who did 'I Said Never Again' and 'Every Little Thing') - plus contributions from Alexis Strum (songwriter behind 'Nothing Good About This Goodbye'), Karen Poole (who wrote 'Secret Garden') and David Eriksen (who wrote 'Dumb Dumb').

In case you missed it, Joel and David covered the singles 'Some Girls' and 'Negotiate With Love' in Part One and 'So Good' and 'I Said Never Again (But Here We Are)' in Part Two.

Amidst a puff of smoke machine across a sticky regional gay club dancefloor, Joel and David are meeting you in July 2005, rocking cropped leather gloves for the 'spiritual lead single' of the album. 'So Good' - written by friend of the podcast and brilliant pop songwriter Hannah Robinson and Pascal Gabriel - is a stomping, empowering electro-pop banger. An utterly irresistible way to welcome Rachel's new album and also a key part of Hannah's journey as a songwriter, as we discover.

Your zesty hosts chat to Hannah Robinson about 'So Good' and Barry Stone, the amazing songwriter and producer part of The Alias (previously Jewels & Stone) who did the Adam Ant-inspired single 'I Said Never Again (But Here We Are)'. Plus, legendary director Trudy Bellinger, who did the fun "Bad Girls" prison-themed music video.

Joel and David are joined by music industry legend Peter Loraine of Fascination Management, who was the Marketing Director at Polydor at time, looking after Rachel alongside Simon Fuller's 19 Entertainment (now XIX Management).

As far as content goes - this episode is jam packed with value like the single releases Rachel was giving us in this time. Joel and David take you through her unforgettable live performances in this era including G-A-Y and T4 On The Beach, plus the b-side ('Never Go Back') and interactive PC games!
