Professional Partier Andrew W.K. explores one of the most deeply embedded songs in American culture — The Star Spangled Banner.  As he breaks down how this lyrically archaic a technically difficult song works as a stirring National Anthem, you may realize that you have your own connection to the song.

We want to hear YOUR stories about the national anthem! Did you see it, did you sing it, is funny or inspiring? Comment, tweet, message, email, or even leave a voicemail with our excellent intern Kelly Seale for a chance to hear your story on the podcast!
