  • 121: But I'm a Creep
    By the time you listen to this week's episode, it's likely that yet another batch of powerful dudes have been exposed as predatory trash. So we're dedicating this week to discussing a topic we explored in the early days of our podcast: songs with creepy, misogynistic lyrics, unintentional or otherwise.

  • 120: Last Dance with Tom Petty
    Last month we lost one of the greatest songwriters and musicians of our time, and also one of maybe 7 men in popular culture who wasn't an absolute monster. We had this conversation weeks ago, tbh fam, but it was more important that we release some timely episodes about Halloween candy than honor a one-of-a-kind voice the likes of which we will never hear again. Rest in peace, Heartbreaker. Additionally, we debate about the merits of Vietnamese food.
