This BBC Learning English podcast episode, a co-hosted discussion, explores the lives of aspiring musicians in the UK. The hosts discuss the challenges and rewards of a musical career, featuring interviews with two musicians: Bailey, who started performing at open mic nights at age 11, and Josh, a successful London busker. The episode includes a segment of Josh's music and a quiz about the UK artist with the most number one songs (the answer is Elvis Presley, with 21, surpassing The Beatles' 18). Listeners learn vocabulary related to the music industry and are encouraged to find more content on the BBC Learning English website. The episode concludes with a brief advertisement for another BBC podcast, "World of Secrets."
