You Got All That?

A melody stuck in our heads took us somewhere we didn’t expect: back to 1973, when Mocedades lifted Eres Tú from a Eurovision stage to the Billboard Hot 100. We unpack why this fully Spanish-language song hit so hard, how it drifted through decades on radio and in memory, and what its weather-soaked lyrics reveal about love that feels bigger than words. It’s one of those rare tracks that makes nostalgia feel brand new.

From there, we swerve into pure slapstick with the new Naked Gun. Liam Neeson commits to the bit, and that commitment is half the joke. We talk about why straight-faced absurdity works, where callbacks add rhythm, and how a star known for gravitas can unlock real laughter by playing it earnest. Not all comedy swings land, though. We break down how Elsbeth’s season opener loses tension by turning wit into homework, why an improv lesson inside a murder plot fizzles, and how even great cameos can’t rescue a script when tone goes off key.

The stakes climb with the Louvre heist of Napoleonic jewels. We walk through the practical realities: why these pieces are nearly impossible to fence, why private collectors—not quick cash—are the more plausible motive, and how arrests, DNA, and rushed exit plans suggest planning without sophistication. Expect a long trail of insurance fights, security upgrades, and international coordination before any resolution.

Then we head to the place where American myth and bulk buying meet: Costco. We trade stories about cheese-counter proposals gone wrong, legendary return-policy victories, and the strange comfort of the $1.50 hot dog. It’s part marketplace, part folklore, and endlessly human in the best ways. We close with a salute to Ace Frehley, the Spaceman whose guitar, makeup, and pyrotechnics helped rocket KISS from clubs to arenas. The riffs were loud, the spectacle louder, and the imprint unforgettable.

If you laughed, learned, or yelled along, tap follow, share the show with a friend, and leave a quick review. Your notes help more curious listeners find us and keep the conversation rolling.
