Hello and welcome to trashy divorces. Everybody's favorite good podcast about bad relationships.

My name is Stacey and Alicia, you have such an example of a bad relationship here.

I have the finale today. It really is everything in a mishmash of bad relationships you could put together in one story.

It is a very long train coming off the

rail story. We are here for the finale of Sid and Nancy the How Does It End Part? Badly for both.

Badly for both. Badly for a lot of folks in this story. We got a lot of contributors. It turns into a little bit of a

choose your own adventure, Stacey, because everything connects to something else. We are here for the

very finale, 1978, really January 78 to the end of Sid and Nancy. Going back in time a bit,

a lot of observations, a lot of sad yeah just

two kids that your heart breaks for so young so tragic thank you for joining us today for the

end of punk rock and some misery if we're going to conclude this story stacey we got to go go go oh stacey let's go ahead and get into the end the how did it end part of this story.

The true crimey portion, I believe.

We got a little bit more, way more, before the true crimey portion.

I want to thank a few listeners who let me know a few cool things.

First up, remember in the last episode we talked about the spots tour sex pistols on on the secret or whatever it was and one of those

bands was called acne rabble well it turns out in jolly old ye england spots is a term for acne

for pimples yeah yeah didn't know that so that's cool one other thing i want you to know is that pete shelley of

the buzzcocks who featured prominently in the last episode named himself because remember he started

with a different name his stage name he named himself after percy shelley okay yep which i thought

was kind of cool you never know what you're going to get into on trashy divorces.

True story.

Okay, so what I want to do is back up a little bit to 1978 for Sid and Nancy.
