- Episode #137: July 6, 1996Roger's two months behind, but the comeback begins with a look at the hits of the summer Will Smith punched an alien and some Scots clones a sheep. There was bilingual rap, a thwarted tryst, a teenage torch singer, a tune to drop from the ceiling by, and some Eastern dabbling from the child of a child star. This episode loves you all.YouTube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDWLXjsOJPQlALuy7ksYAEfnv695QitCF&si=Wvt-bs1tn9RKJ6yVPatreon page: https://www.patreon.com/oldmanyellsatmusic?fan_landing=true&view_as=publicLinktree: https://linktr.ee/oldmanyellsatmusic47 min

- Episode #135: June 22, 1980This time Roger goes back to the beginning of the 2nd Star Wars summer to check out the charts. He finds some metal about a plane that almost crashed, fake siblings kicking it old school, a punk who can't get service, music for a cosmic beach party, a one-hit wonder with a pedigree, an intentionally "stupid" movie theme, and a guy who went from yacht rock to riding with wrestlers. Warning: listening to this episode may cause some kind of ecstasy to get a hold on you.YouTube playlist:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDWLXjsOJPQkm5AFr9Oi0_uuIRfknzEp1Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/oldmanyellsatmusic?fan_landing=true&view_as=publicLinktree: https://linktr.ee/oldmanyellsatmusic49 min
- Episode #134: June 4, 1977
This time Roger travels back to those simpler days when 25 years on the British throne was seen as an impressive accomplishment and we were in the final days of people finding words like "lightsaber" and "Wookiee" kind of odd. On the charts, you had some Caribbean calypso via South America and the Netherlands, a yacht rocker initiating the "relationship talk," a lady questioning her soon-to-be-ex-roomie's questionable baked goods habits, a gentleman having dream sex with his future, disco dancing danger, a song inspired by nudity that inspired puppetry, and a dude who won't touch a potential one-night-stand because he knows where she's been. And more. So grab your things and let this episode take you home.

- Episode #132: May 3, 1986This time Roger looks at a time when moviegoers felt the need for speed, while TV viewers wondered why there was a dead guy in the shower. The chart hits of the day included a returning rock original, musty Britishness, some seaworthy Swiss pop, metalheads showing their compassionate side, a top-tier one hit wonder, bland "country," and multiple stars of the telly singing for or about important causes.Watch it all unfold on YouTube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDWLXjsOJPQnjuMzsegpVVeFsPkcJq6eRSupport the show on Patreon and get bonus content: https://www.patreon.com/oldmanyellsatmusic?fan_landing=true&view_as=publicFollow all the links on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/oldmanyellsatmusicListen to this episode, whether your at home or on a vacation far away.44 min
- Episode #131: Turn On Tune In Rock Out #13 - The Carpenters: Space EncountersIn 1978 space and aliens were the hottest trend in pop culture. They were dominating the movies, and the TV and music industries wanted in on it too. This is how we ended up with Karen and Richard Carpenter meeting some far out extraterrestrial beings played by...a blow-dried All American type and a buxom blonde sitcom star. Will the Carpenters teach the Pluterians the magic of music? Is Charlie Callas a robosexual? And who's on The Love Boat this week?

- Episode #130: April 20, 1974This time Roger goes back to a time when a Swedish quartet was winning with an ode to a big historic loss. On the charts, a tune about a hot-button issue was flopping, while more successful songs included a paean to sex in the sand, a tearjerker by a funnyman who would later be accused of consuming a rodent, an invitation to deception, a tribute to a booty-shaking apparatus, and a singing nun who became the most successful singing nun since...The Singing Nun.

- Episode #129: April 1, 1995This time Roger goes back four score and eight April Fool's Days. While moviegoers were being introduced to a fat man in a little coat, the charts contained a trip-hop ode to uniqueness, a Britpop awakening, a cover of a Japanese translation, a premium 90s party-starter, and some all-star metaphorical engineering.
