Each episode of Pop Rocks Radio is your weirdo mixtape from the margins — built to get you excited about these artists and support their work. Like what you hear? Go buy the music and show the love! If you’d like to support this show, you can buy us a coffee on Ko-fi — or send some sats if you’re listening on Fountain, Podverse, or TrueFans. Every boost, comment, or coffee helps keep the mixtape spinning! We also dig deeper on our YouTube channel , where we spotlight favorite bands, uncover long-lost treasures, and celebrate all things catchy. Find more at poprocksradio.online (yeah, I know—it’s a little on the nose).","last_synced_at":"2026-07-24T00:18:39.528001+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pop-rocks-radio-7011864"},"episode":{"title":"The Hook in the Hurt: Pop Rocks Radio Ep. 55","slug":"the-hook-in-the-hurt-pop-rocks-radio-ep-55","published_at":"2025-09-10T12:00:46+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pop-rocks-radio-7011864/the-hook-in-the-hurt-pop-rocks-radio-ep-55","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pop-rocks-radio-7011864","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/pop-rocks-radio/2206407","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/330540/2206407/pop-rocks-radio/2025_09_09_00_43_31_54aff688-3817-4415-9e59-835de93fa027.mp3","summary":"This week, Pop Rocks Radio takes it to Times Square — our Movie of the Week. Allan Moyle’s 1980 cult classic follows two girls who find their voices in the grit and chaos of New York. It’s messy, uneven, and unforgettable — just the way we like it! We’re also featuring the brilliant Tamar Berk , tracing her journey from the Starball days through her solo work, and closing with a brand-new track from her latest album, OCD . Tamar’s music is equal parts jagged poetry and irresistible hooks. 🔗 Links: https://tamarberkmusic.com/ https://tamarberk.bandcamp.com/ https://indivisible.org/ https://substack.com/@swlauden Playlist: The Chelsea Curve - Never Come Down Fastbacks - My Letters Smokey Brights - All in Who You Know Shannon & The Clams - The Moon Is In The Wrong Place PONY - Somebody Kill Me Please PONY - Chokecherry Starball - Say About Me Tamar Berk - Over and Done Tamar Berk - Better off Meditating Tamar Berk - Dandelions in My Flowerbed Tamar Berk - Chicago Tamar Berk - i'm in the day after The Cords - Fabulist Radhika - Future Me The Anti Groupies - Not My Problem The Hellflowers - Spanish Bombs Hunx & His Punx - Wild Boys Momma - I Want You (Fever) The Shivvers - Remember Tonight 👉 Listen now: listen.poprocksradio.com 💛 Share it, support it, and as always: Be good.
