March 09, 2019 Ep. 5 - Anti-Nixon Songs of the 70s
Songwriters of the 70s took on Richard Nixon the best way they knew how: with their music. Blaming music for drug use, the Kent State shootings, Watergate, and getting a pardon for "any crimes he may have committed" were all issues that inspired artists such as Jefferson Airplane, CSNY, Gil Scott-Heron, Stevie Wonder, and David Bowie. This episode discusses how music reflected the dissatisfaction and outright anger with President Richard Nixon, even beyond his resignation in August 1974.

Did music help push the sexual revolution in the 1970s or was the music reflecting the changes in how society viewed sexuality? Music has always been used to sell sex but the message was delivered more directly in the 70s. The sexual revolution and music's role in it are explored using the music of Loretta Lynn, Led Zeppelin, The Archies (!), Marvin Gaye, Labelle, Donna Summer, and Patti Smith.

January 13, 2019 Ep. 3 - 70s Southern Rock and Nostalgia (and a certain flag)
The blues-inspired southern rock of the 1970s from bands such as the Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd tapped was loved across the nation. For many southerners, it tapped into a desire for nostalgia, rebellion, and reclaiming the South as a distinct region. How should we think about that music now? And what does the Confederate flag have to do with any of it?
