Lady Gaga was the Disney villain of late-00s American pop - evil, fun, and extremely gay. But with the release of her second full-length record Born This Way in 2011, she turned babyface by infusing her queer-coded arena-pop with the patriotic nostalgia of heartland rock, the crowd-pleasing pyrotechnics of 80s sleaze metal and the self-flagelising pageantry of Roman-Catholicism. It almost worked. This week, Christopher Macarthur-Boyd and Liam Withnail spent a solid week jamming out to what Rolling Stone magazine named the 484th Greatest Album of All Time, and the hot takes are flying off the mouth-shelves like hotcakes. As well as a particularly scintillating edition of Secret Posho, they get into about Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, the amazing/terrible album cover and United States President Joe Biden. All this and more on episode 17 of Enjoy An Album!
