In episode fifteen of Skip’d, Rob & Mike crank up the volume on Terrorvision’s 1994 breakout album How to Make Friends and Influence People—a riotous blend of hard rock hooks, cheeky lyrics, and Britpop-era bravado that turned the Bradford quartet into unlikely chart heroes. Packed with singalong choruses, punchy riffs, and a healthy dose of northern charm, this album became a staple of ‘90s UK rock and a certified unskippable for anyone who’s ever shouted “Alice, What’s the Matter?” at full blast.

What’s inside:

  • Breakdown of the album’s most infectious tracks such as “Oblivion,” the swaggering “Middleman,” and the heartfelt closer “What the Doctor Ordered”

  • Exploration of the album’s core themes: working-class joy, emotional honesty, and the art of turning everyday chaos into stadium-ready anthems

  • Reflections on how How to Make Friends And Influence People became a soundtrack for messy nights out, messy breakups, and messy haircuts—plus the moment Rob discusses his view on Britpop artists…

Stream Skip’d on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your audio fix. Got an album that makes you wanna scream the chorus at the top of your lungs? Send it our way—Rob & Mike are ready to put it to the test and see if it’s truly unskippable.
