Music duo CASPER & PAM doggedly go through the five tracks they will meet in Hell!

In this special first birthday episode of Hellish, top singing duo CASPER &amp; PAM give us the five tracks they will meet in Hell! Pam Quinn (human) and Casper (dog) have spent the last couple of years delighting the internet with their singing double act. They told us about getting a standing ovation from the judges on America's Got Talent, the history of Casper's special skill, whether or not Simon Cowell was right when he said a singing dog would make a million dollars, AND they introduce us to their forthcoming podcast, Casper's Song Zoo, in which they write a new song to order every episode. (That starts Sunday 27th April.) Pam did most of the talking, but Casper was good enough to serenade us to celebrate Hellish's first birthday. You can find <a href="https://www.instagram.com/casperandpam/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Casper &amp; Pam on Instagram here</a>, and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/casperssongzoopod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the Casper's Song Zoo Instagram is here</a>.If you've had even a dollar's worth of joy from Casper &amp; Pam, here or on social media, then why not <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/casper-s-song-zoo-pod-and-live-show#/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">contribute to Casper &amp; Pam's Indiegogo campaign</a>?

We let romance writer JENNY COLGAN count the ways her Infernal Playlist bugs her.

Best-selling novelist JENNY COLGAN gives us the five tracks she will meet in Hell! Jenny is responsible for producing some of the greatest romantic comedies in all of fiction, as well as some of the greatest Doctor Who stories yet to be seen on TV. We talked to her about both of these things, as well as how she is able to produce a new book every year, how she got into writing novels, her early days in comedy and what it feels like to watch all your friends go off to be hugely successful, the Doctor Who episode she will meet in Hell, and she gave us her Infernal Playlist which, yes, is the point of the show and everything but at least two of the people in the conversation would have been just as happy talking exclusively about Doctor Who for the whole thing.

Musician PAUL CARTER of Flotation Toy Warning gives us the five tracks he will meet in Hell!

We also talk about how even the worst job you've ever done is improved by being a man in the 1980s, we get reacquainted with a band that are fast becoming Hellish regulars, and discuss whether or not Timothée Chalamet is any good. John also chooses his Infernal Playlist, one song of which has a surprising tie to Malick...

The five tracks you meet in Hell

Welcome to Hellish, the only podcast that comes to you from Hell's waiting room. In each episode, Hell's receptionist Daniel Whelan and Satan's tea boy Alex Gale interrogate a newly damned soul, asking them for the five songs they will meet in Hell: the music that we will use to torment them for all eternity. The condemned take us through songs they are embarrassed to have once liked; songs they can't stand that are otherwise universally adored; songs that remind them of bad times; songs they hate by artists they love; and songs that once stuck in their heads, they can never get out.
