One-Hit Wonders! (with Mike Palindrome)

We all know how difficult it is to scale the mountain of success, whether you're a musician or a novelist. But why do some artists reach the summit again and again, while others spend the rest of their careers stuck in the valley, gazing up and thinking about what might have been? In this episode, Jacke and Mike take a look at some classic "one-hit wonders" in the world of literature and popular music.
