Kissing Lips and Breaking Hearts: A U2 -ish Podcast with the Garden Tarts

By Hillary and Jenny

A U2ish podcast for U2 fans, casual and die-hard.

We are two best friends discussing what we love the most: U2, whiskey, politics, travel and the ridiculous adventures we've had together over three decades of friendship. In a fan world full of collectibles, statistics and academia, Jenny and Hillary bring irreverence to the otherwise serious fandom.
Come hang out with the cheeky but astute Garden Tarts. Every Wednesday, a new episode will bring you U2 news, fun facts, album reviews, tour highlights and random musings.

Heavy On the 'ish Again

Heavy On the 'ish Again

We're a U2-ish podcast. Sometimes heavy on the U2. Sometimes heavy on the 'ish. With the band not back in Vegas yet or making any other news, we had to resort to other rambling content. Plus... we finally reveal our listener from the Philippines!

No News is Blah Blah Blah

The boys are back in Vegas but there’s no new details to report. (Other than something we forget until the very end.) So, we had to find our own way through this ep.

Dear Diary: The Tarts Take on Las Vegas

We're trying something different with this ep. We recorded it in bits are we traveled to Las Vegas for two shows at Sphere. We caught up with Julie and Michelle at Zoo Station and also have fan check-ins from Zak, Maia, Austin and Des. This is a fun little one. Enjoy!

Correspondent Jenny from the Sphere

The Garden Tarts didn't make it to opening night but Correspondent Jenny did! She brings us a full report. Plus, our thoughts on some of the visuals, the set list, famous attendees and assholes on the internet. Plus, an intriguing ticketing idea Metallica uses for their fan club. Would it work for U2 and U2 fans? We aren't so sure. We've got questions for Bono over whiskey and cake, too!

A Garden Tart Update

We took a page out of Bono’s book and talked about how we have nothing to talk about but then, we found plenty to say! Other U2ish podcasts we’ve listened to, a SOS listening update, strange and startling things and some updated features. You’ll know them when you hear them! Boom Cha!

Listeners Save the Day: Your Questions

A big thank you to the U2Fam on twitter who gave us stuff to chat about. Songs on SOS that could be at the Sphere. SOS songs potentially replace the original. Why Two Hearts Beat at One and The Fly are amazing. All things Adam, including his garden. What our new (currently hypothetical) show on U2X should be called. Tune in!
