Show Notes
MTV burst onto our screens in the 1980s as a vivid blast of loud, animated excess – all music, all the time, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Fast forward to 2025 and it is a shadow of its former self, with more channels under the MTV umbrella set to shut down at the end of the year. Is MTV dead? And just how much of a mark on pop culture did it make in its heyday? Host: Tessa Fleming, Guest: Dave Hanratty
