Episode 61: Checking in on the charts.... hmmm.....

There needs to be a federal inquiry into the Billboard charts girls.... what is going on.... After perusing some of the Billboard charts (SOME not ALL because I am not paying $14 a month to look at an emerging artist chart girl please) I also have a look at the MOST important chart of all - my personal streamings statistics of the last 30 days xx
This episode also includes topics such as: my vitamin C consumption era, poorly disclosed ads, streaming artists vs playlist artists and saurrrr much more

As an Australian, the country's commitment to calling all Megans "mee-gan" is commitment to arts and culture that no other country is replicating

[@MagisterialVoyager]

This comment is scalping me. 😭

[@teiler4277]

oh that's why he did that, I thought he was just making a joke like with ariana grenade lmao

[@yoshita4140]

@@teiler4277 that's just how we pronounce it lol

[@gabriallaxD]

here in India a lot of people are committed to meh-ghun thought you guys should know

[@MagisterialVoyager]

@@teiler4277 It’s not a joke, it’s just Australian accent. 😔👌 (And I’m saying this as someone who also pretty much has an Aussie accent. 🤣)

[@frongychair]

idk why the start of this episode made me feel like mike was my manager and we were doing my annual performance review

[@leafletanon]

"how was the video this week?" fantastic give me 14 of em

[@nannaprstegaard5394]

we loved it

[@erin7770]

365 - Charli XCX 💚

[@SelfInterrupted]

i only exist to listen to watch and to consume this podcast.

[@oriakumia2526]

i guess you could say you’re always jumping in an elevator

[@SelfInterrupted]

@@oriakumia2526 i'm so tired of jumping i fear

the silence after seeing tortured poets at number one on the billboard 200 spoke volumes. michael microphone you international hero

[@emilysegaar8417]

Period

[@bawling]

i knew i could trust him

[@MagisterialVoyager]

As a girlie who does not listen to TS, if I catch the drift correctly, what does this mean, bestie? 😭

[@duyoazzaisin]

@@MagisterialVoyager I'm not a pop-trend follower but if I'm not mistaken Taylor has been re-releasing her album "tortured poets department" over and over again literally *65 times* by now for no good reason, doing it the _moment_ that another music girlie (such as miss chappel roan) has risen in the ranks to almost make it to the top. It's a really dirty tactic that is pretty sure meant to suppress the other contenders for the highest placing on the charts. Though some details might be a bit off since I don't like TS or her music and don't really want to hear anything about her, so I'm not always in the loop with these things.

[@MagisterialVoyager]

​@@duyoazzaisin Thank you very much, bestie. The last time I listened to her songs was a couple of years ago, so I get you. I remember clocking out. That _is_ one dirty tactic and we applaud Mr Michael Microphone for the deafening silence he gave to Ms TS, LOL.

[@zofiar5014]

how can people say that someone as talented as Roan is not cut out for this? i feel like 99% of the human population was not made for the level of attention creating great art gets you in this day and age, i literally don’t expect anything else but good music from a musical artist!! i hope she has the support she needs or goes the fiona apple route and just release music without subjecting herself to uncomfortable situations

[@Sankoi2399]

Pink pony club is definitely my favourite song atm

[@enchantedgoldrush]

IT'S ME JESSIE AND ARI!!! IF THEY TEST ME THEY SORRY!!! AMEN!!! PERIOD!!!!

Immediately starts rapping Nicki’s verse on bang bang and I almost choked on my breakfast lmao I love this man

[@faberquidam]

a sketchbook tour by mr microphone would eat

[@vleriii]

morgan wallen has also been pissing me off. spotify literally decided to start shoving one of his songs down my throat, even when i mostly listen to like indie rock and hyperpop?? and miss morgan is CERTAINLY not a hyperpop girlie...

[@hannywhyy3415]

I’m glad to see your comment I thought I was tripping and my Spotify was glitching when this happened to me and I listen to pop and metal and hate country pisssssed me off so bad 🤣

[@VlogN3rds]

If you go on his Spotify page there should be an option “Don’t play this artist” that will block his music for you!

[@lover-rep-swiftie]

Mike you ate up that intro and left NO CRUMBS

[@babble-on]

not you ignoring Diet Pepsi... diabolical

[@iwouldgiveyouthemoon_]

addison made history

[@cierraking7953]

Overrated

[@oneiromancing]

literally first listen to miss addison diet pepsi was an earth shattering category 6 pussy event for me

[@auditionvideo7553]

michael's mic, you are so right. spotify has been on some crazy shit. i cannot stand "espresso" (sorry) and blocked it after the app kept playing it after every playlist!!! unfortunately it plays anyway. we are sooooo onto you, spotify 😒

I’m so relieved you’re back on the podcast I seriously started memorizing episodes because I had to keep replaying them until you made a new episode

[@shadowfox710]

"Can I get you anything?A gun!" 😂😂😂😂😂 Deceased!!! Also, "It's an American, country loving, chart. Very scary!" As an American, it is very scary!

[@linaleonilla]

The new setup is just perfect. Like go on, Mike, show your physical media off!!

[@PatsProjectsPlus]

Totally agree about Spotify pushing specific songs, for me it was million dollar baby. Couldn’t escape it, and I’m so over it

Angel of my dreams by Jade

[@Kaykokovids]

I've been off Tiktok for 2 years now and I genuinely feel better because of it. The most I do is post speed draws and immediately close the app. I dont want to engage with it anymore just because I think hearing too many opinions made my anxiety worse and was not helping my mental health at all lol. Edit: favorite song rn is California by Chappell Roan. I think its one of the more underrated songs on the album but its my favorite🤷🏻

[@bagel-tg5fl]

favourite song - sympathy is a knife by charli xcx of course

[@alexthorold3496]

mr michaelphone fighting for his life trying to remember the time and temperature

As a fellow chart enthusiast since I was a child, the phenomenon of now knowing or having ever heard MULTIPLE songs in the top 10 is so bizarre. It’s getting weird… Edit: Whatcha Doing - Dua Lipa

[@debdotcom]

Ugh that song is soooooooo underrated

[@liddygrantland8458]

ELON CRUST DONT PISS ME OFF AHAHAHAH

Morgan wallen said the n word and he also threw a chair off a balcony at a bar, which are generally the reasons most people (myself included) don’t like him

👼Angel of My Dreams by JADE 👼 🫡🫡🫡

[@batate]

just because mike asked so politely: my favorite song atm is rain drop by nct 127.... it's literally keeping me sane. if it wasn't this album of theirs i wouldn't even been listening to anything... they are kinda my light, ngl.

[@s2entimental]

omgggg 127 mention!! the new album is so so good 💚

[@batate]

@@s2entimental how they still dont have a grammy idk

[@toxel74]

the production on rain drop goes crazyy omg walk truly aoty mayhaps even album of the decade

[@TheSkinnyZ]

Asking me for *one* favorite song is torture, but I'm obliging: saving flowers by salute feat. Rina Sawayama

[@sofia13690]

I’m late but my fav song rn is Blanket Me by hundred waters… that buildup at the end got me

[@LMason-qd7sq]

I wonder if the chart has to do with where they're collecting their data. Like if country music listeners are accessing a specific way that might affect the chart...Am I making sense?

[@brittnis7294]

I think that could be a factor for sure. The charts need to show their work on the math

[@Alxndrw]

Top song right now is Tilted by Christine and The Queens

[@kmurphy111]

Ah I loved that song when it first came out! I haven’t heard it in forever but now I’ll go back to it, thanks! The music video had fun funky choreo.
