Is there a more annoying rhyme than “arms” and “charms”?

Further nutritious items on the pod’s tasting menu this week include …

… the story of Tubular Bells and how the Exorcist sent its sales through the roof.

… beneath the surface of every band is a drama waiting to kick off: the View’s reunion gig was “a brotherly bust-up that went too far”.  

… one of the following didn’t endorse a credit card, but which? – Beyoncé, Michael Jackson, Kiss, the Wu-Tang Clan, U2 and the Sex Pistols.

… crimes in rhyme perpetrated by Tom Waits, Bruce Springsteen and Boney M - plus do YOU know a better one than ‘You told me love was too plebeian/ Told me you were through with me an’ …”?

… Beyoncé’s tour is “a celebration of black queer dance music” but that didn’t stop her playing a private gig in Dubai for $24m.

… plus stadium tour profits, singing bassists and 2001: A Space Odyssey and the Blue Danube.
