It's story time again, this time we start the case for one of the most reviled thrash songs of the 1980's and talk a lot about prep wrestling. Which, who among us doesn't love amateur wrestling talk.  I mean it's a subject that has inspired at least 2 podcasts that I can think of.  Come on along, I'll make it fun I promise. Also 2 albums of the week, a Banger for Beginners and concert recap.

Ok, a rapid rundown of the best 24 songs this year. As chosen by Jesus, or as chosen by me if I was asked by Jesus to choose them. He and I aren't talking right now, maybe when I eventually get baptized into the Church of Cancer Christ we'll mend our fences. Happy Ewe Tears!!
Here's a link to the YouTube playlist of all 73 songs...

The Lists continue, Thanksgiving and it's abject colonial horror history of prolonged bloodshed bumming you the fuck out right about now?  This will not help with that, but there is some good music herein contained. I run down my favorite songs of the year numbers 73-50. Maybe it'll bolster your playlist and you can go for a contemplative walk after eating 6500 calories soaked in the shame of  hundreds of years of broken promises and murder.  That should do wonders for my SEO.

Disclaimer: My timeline is wonky. I placed these events in the last two years of the 80s. They more probably took place in 1986-87....

Right upfront I lie to you...then I keep lying. There's is no Snacks and tracks segment this week as I say in the intro, that's a lie...This week we trim the podcast back to a manageable 30 minutes. We talk story, somewhat, maybe, true story, but actually, probably mostly fable. We get surprising AI psychological profiles of a few pop culture movers and shakers. And Album of the week, Concert Calendar, Banger for Beginners and me talking out of my ass exclusively, for the 13th consecutive episode. That may be some kind of record, wait no, this is podcasting, never mind.

Music in this episode:
Love is a Dog From Hell- Godflesh
You Could be Mine-Guns N' Roses
Give it to Me Good- Trixster
Metal of the Night-Hanover Fist
Heartbreak Hotel- Guns 'N' Roses
Shadow of Your Love- Guns 'N' Roses
Apocalyptic- Goatwhore
Cucker Tarlson Loves M&Ms- The Sound That Ends Creation
Moi?- Empire State Bastard
The Bomb-L7
Carrion-Godflesh

Special thanks to any and everyone listening. Big shoutout to Angel and my Cousin Josh!
