  • #057 Count to Ten

    Welcome to The MewX Podcast!


    It's a Mew year, and we're back after a couple of weeks off! We kick off 2023 with the song inspired by the Transformers, Count to Ten. Together with guest frenger, Nico, we not only talk about the song in question, but also about the Transformers franchise. There's also another guest stopping by to greet the frengers. What's your favorite Transformers movie or series?

  • #056 White Lips Kissed / 白い唇のいざない

    Welcome to The MewX Podcast!

    Mew-rry Christmas, fellow Frengers! We celebrate the holidays together with MewX founder, Tero, and talk about the beautiful song from, And the Glass Handed Kites, White Lips Kissed, in both its English and Japanese form. The big question we ask in this episode is, is White Lips Kissed actually a Christmas song?

  • #055 Saliva

    Welcome to The MewX Podcast!


    Hate it or love it? Saliva, from Mew's second album, Half the World Is Watching Me, splits the room in this week's episode. Is this Mew's most controversial song? Is it just an annoying sit-com theme tune, or a fun pop song?

  • #051 Symmetry (Feat. Becky Wilson)

    Welcome to The MewX Podcast!


    In the late 1990s, a young American girl, then known as Becky Jarrett, got in touch with a Danish band by the name of Mew. Together they recorded the song Symmetry. Little did she know that the song she recorded as a teenager, would still be played all over the world decades later. We're joined by Becky, now Wilson, as she shares her story of going to Copenhagen to record this iconic song.
