This week's episode answers a critical question: if we didn't start the fire, who did? Probably those damned Ruskies, that's who!
A companion piece to last week's episode on REM's "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)," this week we delve deep into another list song: "We Didn't Start the Fire" by one William Joel. The whole song is basically just as many political and pop culture references as you can pack into a 3:30 pop song, including some really obscure pulls. We also discuss the iconic music video including Richard being shocked that there was a different mom for each decade.
