In this week’s DNQ Files Kris attempts to surprise Matti with a song he’s never heard before, plays Matti a song he absolutely has heard before, and we learn that everybody parties! 

In a blatant rip off of the iconic Radio Four series, Desert Island Discs, we've "borrowed" this format, and given it a flaming fake piano, a man in a hamster wheel and that final Eurovision polish, we've given it a key change, and will be bringing to your podcast client of choice, the "brand new idea", Desert Island Discoteque.
