Ep. 44 Tickets To My Downfall

Kiara Gets Drunk and Talks About Music

“You’ll be my bloody valentine tonight.” In Ep. 44 Kiara invites Bonnie back to the podcast to discuss the latest release from Machine Gun Kelly, Tickets To My Downfall (2020). In this episode we rejoice at the return of an early 2000s pop punk sound that got a modern day makeover from a rap star who took a risk that seriously paid off; churning out not just hit singles that combine honest lyrics with punchy power chords like “my ex’s best friend”, but also surprisingly gentle melodies such as “play this when i’m gone” and “lonely”. And with a couple Bloody Valentine cocktails in hand, Kiara and Bonnie share their own personal stories about how this album fed their soul amidst a global quarantine, why it’s one of their favourites to dance to, and the power of being town down to nothing to build yourself back up. But we also make time to share our thoughts on Disney’s greatest villain, why Christina Aguilera makes Bonnie tear up, Kiara’s new obsession with Lil Huddy, and confirm that Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox are truly the hottest couple in the world. There’s a lot that I want to say – but that’s for another day.
