This week, Andrew and Dan venture back into the Billboard annals further than they've ever ventured before. Unfortunately, they return with a truly embarrassing pop song from America's Swing Band Era (or should we say Sweet Band Era). These frat boys love yelling at us about girls that call them "daddy" and we are NOT here for it.

Back before NASA successfully landed a man on the Moon, it was up to musicians to inform the public about the scientific particulars of the great big night orb. Many people tried to score a number one hit with these "science songs" but only Les Paul (the talking guitar) and his wife were successful. Of course, none of this is true, but it's vaguely what this episode is about.

These days, the name Paul McCartney is synonymous with successful career longevity in the music industry. But, there was a time when Paul was just the guy who used to be in that very popular band and now couldn't write a hit song to save his life. Then, in 1973, America finally agreed to let Paul McCartney back into the Number 1 slot, but only if he wrote something truly boring.

It was only a matter of time before Andrew and Dan randomly landed on a song by the butt-shaking, guitar-slapping hit-maker known in these parts as Elvis Presley. We'll likely be talking about him again (and again) in the future, so this episode will focus primarily on his early career, his debut on Sun Records, and his 1957 RCA chart-topper, "All Shook Up."

"This Is America" and its accompanying music video kicked off yet another chapter in Childish Gambino's multi-faceted career. The song deals with complicated and sensitive issues involving race relations, media consumption, and racially motivated violence. Surely, the two very white, very stupid hosts of this podcast are the least qualified people to be talking about these subjects. But we try out best!

After spending the first fifteen minutes discussing the nation's favorite movie, Detective Pikachu, and a Mountain Goats concert that only one of them went to, Andrew and Dan finally move on to this incredibly spooky cowboy song. Apparently, people wanted the shit scared out of them in the late '40s and Ol' Leather Lungs came through for them.

Listen with a friend so you don't get scared!

Back in the 1950s, all you needed to become a big star was a nice personality and reputation for being a great barber. At least, that's what you might assume after looking at Perry Como's career. Before families across the the country invited Mr. Casual into their homes via his various television programs, he recorded a number of hit songs included "Wanted," a ballad about arresting a woman for not dating you. Classic Como!

After spending way too much time talking circles around Endgame spoilers and 2019 Oscars predictions, Andrew and Dan turn their attention to an epic tale about the music industry's most notorious assholes. Join us as we recount all the shitty things Don Henley said, all the stupid theories about what this song is really about, and all the bland guitar riffs that America seemingly fell in love with.

All you young kids listening probably don't know that once upon a time a little thing called "world hunger" excited. You've never heard of it because, at some point in the 1980s, a bunch of nice celebrities got together and completely fixed it with a few bland mayonnaise songs. We spend a lot of time talking about one of those songs this week but we spend even more time talking about the comment section on SavingCountryMusic.com Enjoy!

In the spring of 2013, America got swept up in Macklemore fever as this fur-coat-wearing white rapper from the Pacific Northwest joined forces with a middle school jock named Ryan Lewis to inform people about the great deals going down at their local thrift store. Of course, a backlash ensued, and quite possibly for good reason! Whiteness and controversy abound in this episode. Enjoy!
