Jackie & Danielle are the hosts of No More Late Fees Podcast, a retro movies podcast that has been going strong for years!

On October 2nd, we lost a Canadian music legend. Sass Jordan has passed on, and I felt it would be fitting to re-release her episode of DNP in a special tribute to her life. Her humour, wit, and genuineness shine in this conversation. Feel free to leave comments about your memories of Sass.

This is a bucket list conversation for me. My vocal hero, Sass Jordan, is the special guest. Canada's Queen of Rock! Sass shares about the latest live album, heartfelt memories of drummer Taylor Hawkins, vocal care, Joe Cocker, Canadian Idol judging, and I ask her what her ultimate self indulgent set list would be!

Milli Vanilli was a force in 90's pop music. Major success, and major fallout, when it was discovered that Rob & Fab didn't sing on their album. Why did this happen?

The best word to describe Fab Morvan is REAL.

Fab Morvan is here to dispel rumours, open up about the painful past, and how he bounced back from the scandal.

We discuss becoming a massive pop star with Rob Pilatus, bullying, his Grammys style this year, 90's nostalgia tours, being a father, the work he's done to build himself into the man he is today, and so much more, PLUS his new autobiography BLAME IT ON THE GAME, out on October 2nd!

When I think about 90's pop stars, Fab has always been someone I longed to learn his story from, and I respect immensely. A bucket list episode!
