All right.

So this week, we are kicking off a double header that is about Gwen Stefani.

But, of course, we are going to be covering in this

episode her years with her very influential and important band, no doubt, in the 90s and

early 2000s. And then next week, we are going to be biting into Gwen's solo turn as one of

the definitive dance pop divas of the mid-2000s. So this was such a fun

couple of episodes to put together for you guys. I really hope you enjoy this series. I know

this has been heavily fan demanded. People want the Gwen content and we are coming through

with the Gwen content. And it was incredibly amazing to put this work together, to put this

episode together, to put both these episodes

together. Obviously, No Doubt and Gwen were huge for me at various phases in my time growing up.

So this was amazing to look back at fascinating group, fascinating artists, a lot of contradictions,

a lot of great stuff, a lot of weird stuff. Anyway, I really hope you enjoy this series.

Without further ado, here is part one of our Gwen Stefani series on No Doubt. Here it is.
