  • BTP 018: Fuel on the Hill (Beside the Music #1.5 [Lost Episode])

    THANKS FOR LISTENING!! Please rate us on itunes and we'll love you forever! In an episode we said we might not release, Todd & Joe are joined by returning guest Larry as well as Todd's girlfriend, Heidi, to discuss her experience growing up in South Africa during censorship and apartheid. We were still trying to figure out this whole music-podcast thing, so bear with us... recorded a few months back but put on the shelf until we realized that there was some good content in it we wanted to share. Was Freddie Mercury posessed? Todd starts to express his theories about popular music. What does Joe think about the song "Hey Joe"? What did he do while he was in New York City? What are some of the differences found in South Africa, Heidi's home country? Who is Sixto Rodriguez, subject of the documentary "Searching for Sugarman"? What does BEATALLICA have to do with anything? Does Todd know how to "do music"? Was Larry more of a fan of Tina Turner or the guy that beat her? What was life like for Larry and Todd growing up on the northwest-side of Chicago? Has Larry ever eaten a White Castle? All of these questions and more will be answered in this cut-to-shit edition of "Beside the Music"... Use hashtag #GFOMC when you disagree with somebody!!
