Episode #72 of Sound Up! is the first of two special year-end retrospectives. This time, Mark Goodman and Alan Light welcome Madison Vain, digital director of Esquire magazine, to look back at the biggest, most shocking, jaw-dropping music stories of 2024. Together, they discuss scandals and triumphs from the Diddy case to the Eras Tour, the Oasis reunion to the Kendrick/Drake beef, from the breakthroughs of Chappell Roan and Charli XCX to the flops from Justin Timberlake and Katy Perry. Plus, a quick look at some of the memorable responses to our latest Throwback Thursday social media question: What was your first concert?

We want to make you part of the conversation.  Leave us your comments via text or audio message at [email protected]
