Episode 517- Cheap Trick The Top 25 Songs

3 hours 57 minutes

This Week on America’s Podcast!

We summoned the mathematical wizardry of Ryan T. Russell—armed only with a calculator, a dream, and a list of 50 of our favorite Cheap Trick songs. What did he do? He crunched the numbers, sprinkled some rock 'n' roll sorcery, and conjured up the ultimate Top 25 Cheap Trick songs of all time!

Joining this sonic séance are none other than Ross Warner, author of American Standard: Cheap Trick from the Bars to the Budokan and Beyond, and the one and only Eddy Cannistraci, the man, the myth, the alcohol-powered legend.

By the end of this marathon, we bid a possibly-tearful, definitely-tipsy Auf Wiedersehen to Mooger and Eddy Alcohol Man, but don’t worry—we rally and bring it home with Marc, Ross, and Ryan still standing (barely).

So buckle up, Tricksters—we’re raising hell and counting riffs on this epic episode! Will your favorite make the list? Will someone start singing “Dream Police” off-key? Only one way to find out...

Until next week, say it with us: “Elo Kiddies!” And remember—don’t wake up with a monster.
