POP Goes The World! is a live radio show, not a pre-recorded podcast. It is produced, broadcast, and recorded live every Friday afternoon from 3-5p.m. on WRIR Richmond Independent Radio (www.wrir.org)
Enzo is a veteran dj of over 40 years in clubs and radio. He’s played everything from hole-in-the-wall punk clubs in the early 80s, to European style techno clubs in the late 90s, and everything in between. He’s also done Top 40, Hot A.C., and Modern Rock commercial radio.
He is currently the program director at WRIR Richmond Independent Radio, and hosts POP Goes The World! every Friday afternoon from 3-5p.m.
He has made it his mission to use his acutely fine tuned pop aesthetic to save the world from mediocrity, and bring joy and happiness to all the good little boys and girls with pure hearts with power chord crunches, soaring three part harmonies, and a smattering of minor chords played on jangly guitars.
He equally enjoys talking about himself in the third person.

(Sigh)
O.k., people, it’s that time again….
My on again/off again love affair with the month of October.
It always happens around this time of year (odd, right?).
It’s such a fleeting love affair we have. Only lasting about 4 weeks, and at the end I’m always telling myself, “O.k., Enzo, this is the last time! She “loves” you and then she always leaves you around halloween, and you end up spending the entire month of November moping around listening to The Smiths.”
Well, NO MORE!
Right?
Oh, who am I kidding?
O.k., October, I’ll give you ONE more chance.

Saturday Aug 03, 2024
Saturday Aug 03, 2024
I have my good friend,Tab, with me in the studio this afternoon. Tab was my upstairs neighbor when I first moved to Richmond 30 some odd years ago. We would hang out all afternoon on our front porch on the corner of Floyd and Belmont playing our guitars. He had just started playing guitar as a rehab exercise for a finger he had just broken, and was told that playing guitar would be a great therapy for the finger, and he’s never stopped playing since. He’s releasing his first album, Slick Justice, today, so I invited him to join me this afternoon to preview some tracks from the album (including one he wrote about me many years ago), and also asked him to come up with a playlist of songs to give us a glimpse into his musical id.

It’s my birthday weekend, so I think some celebratory music should be in order.
I’ll be turning 58, which means I’ll only be able to wear this t-shirt for another two years.
At which point I’l either have to ….
a) get a new one that says “…..I’m in my 60’s”
or
b) I’ll have to actually start acting my age.
I think we can all confidently agree on which one I’ll be going with.

Saturday Sep 09, 2023
NPR did a story 10 years ago on the 20th anniversary of “Britpop”, (https://www.npr.org/2013/09/08/192804290/the-mix-britpop-at-20?fbclid=IwAR0mLlYHR_0ehXQvHNspBfQTiEcyUNiyUD86iNFpFGcsPh_9R51xDUhyDQE), marking the beginning of the era as Sept. 8, 1993 when Suede took home the Mercury Music Prize, Britain and Ireland’s “album of the year” award, for its self-titled debut.While a valid argument could indeed be made for that, on this afternoon’s Pop Goes The World show I’ll do my own “Britpop” celebration playing some of my favorite Britpop tracks of the era, and also taking it back a few years to show who laid the ground work, and also extending it to see who’s currently picked up the torch.
