NO ENCORE #038 | The Weeknd Has Landed
With a thud, unfortunately. In the final ‘regular’ episode of the year – LISTMANIA is right around the corner, folks! – the NO ENCORE boys tackle Abel Tesfaye’s latest effort for global pop domination – Starboy. Before that, there’s much to ponder from flat-pack furniture to impromptu quizzes to the use of Nickelback as a drink-driving deterrent to new songs and the usual love-in with Dave, Colm and Craig.
