Whose sax-pop '80s classic is better: Spandau Ballet's or Wham's? Kirk settle the debate. Meanwhile, Paul defends a list of songs "considered the worst" according to Wikipedia. And in the music trivia quiz, Paul tries to extend his three-game winning streak into an elusive four-game streak.

The idea for this episode has been around for almost as long as the show's existed, and now it's finally here. Paul and Kirk talk about some of their favorite music movies. Not documentaries, and not biopics, but movies that are about fictional bands, music fans, the music industry, etc. Some surprising choices and some strange films to add to your list of must-watch movies.

Who didn't direct the music video for Stevie Wonder's "Fun Day"; Alanis Morissette on tour with Liz Phair and Garbage; Cheap Trick as rock 'n' roll frozen yogurt; the Billie Eilish/Van Halen controversy; Paul tries to extend his two-game winning streak in the trivia quiz.

By special request from a "Music Raygun" fan, this week's episode is all about Stevie Wonder. That it took us 73 episodes to get to this topic with or without a special request is a shame on us. Mea culpa. This one starts at the beginning, i.e., 1963, and moves through 40 years of Stevie Wonder magic. Some hits and some surprises, as always.
