The guys discuss the 60's Donovan hit Mellow Yellow. A 60's hit and instant classic has some strange roots and an even stranger admission that will follow the Coca-Cola company for a long time.
Seth and Marc bring in Skyler to discuss one of his favorite bands and one of his least favorite songs by them... Green Day's Boulevard Of Broken Dreams. We discuss if this was actually written by an angsty middle school
After an update on Marc's Nashville extravaganza, the guys get serious (more than usual) about the backstory of Pearl Jam's third single from Ten; Jeremy. There was a real Jeremy who suffered an unfortunate end... but do
After years and years, Seth and Marc convince Jen and Amelia (Seth's wife and daughter respectively) to come into the studio to talk about the immensely popular Wannabe. Girl power anthem or jumbled mess? Or mixture of b
Seth and Marc invite Doug back into Dick Castle to talk about the Poison Flesh And Blood-era hit Unskinny Bop. Does it actually have depth? What's right? What's wrong? What's left? And what the hell is an "unskinny bop?"
The guys talk about one of the biggest songs of the early Aughts; 3 Doors Down's Kryptonite. A truly puzzling song about how hard it is to be around someone when they're doing well? What?
The guys get together to discuss the 90's one hit wonder Got You (Where I Want You) from The Flys. I don't think anyone knows what they're trying to do or say here... including the band. Is it supposed to be funny? Poign
Seth and Marc discuss the creepy stalker song It'll Be Me as sung by noted freak Jerry Lee Lewis. If you're wondering if this song is tongue in cheek or not, knowing he married his 14-year-old relative doesn't help his c
This week, the guys discuss one thing Canada doesn't do well at all.... reggae. Specifically, the song Rude by Magic! This song was everywhere and it was very bad. A whiny guy asking for his girlfriend's fathers blessing
The guys discuss 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover by Paul Simon... One of the best songwriters of our generation reduced to a shitty rhyme scheme about cheating on his wife. Bummer.
Marc and Seth go back to the grunge days to talk about the strange lyrics to Spoonman by Seattle legends Soundgarden. Listen to us wax nostalgic about our youth and then talk about how fucking weird these lyrics are.
Wow. Seth and Marc listen to the single Hey Mister by Custom. Truly detestable, this song was banned from MTV after they labeled the song and video "pedophilic and offensive to women". I think that's all we need to say a
The guys celebrate Memorial Day with the best-selling female artist of all time and her song Like A Prayer. This song has it all.. double entendres, gospels choirs, and.... mentions of children?
Seth and Marc talk about the earworm Virtual Insanity by Jamiroquai. A danceable tune that ends up being about a fear of a dystopian future where people live underground and people are changing the color of their babies.
Seth and Marc are forced to listen to Sexy Little Thing by "superband" Chickenfoot; some of your least favorite parts of mostly mediocre bands. Take a trip with them as they try to uncover what some of this means and fac
Seth and Marc discuss the manipulative tactics of Scotland's own Del Amitri and their incel-esque hit Roll To Me. We learned all kinds of interesting things like there is no one in the band named Del Amitri, they're Scot
WARNING - We discuss sexual abuse in this episode. If that is a topic you want to avoid, we will be back with a more light-hearted episode next week. Seth and Marc talk about the disturbing lyrics of Tool's first single
Seth and Marc invite very special guests Tim and Joee back on to tackle the nightmare that is Walk Like An Egyptian by all-female supergroup The Bangles. Marking the beginning of the end of the band, this a confusing not
The guys once again turn to the oeuvre of Steve Miller and his band with the laid back jam Fly Like An Eagle. Is it really as deep as they seem to think it is? And would it have packed more punch if it kept its original
Marc and Seth take a look under the hood of the heartbreak anthem that is Boyz II Men's End Of The Road. Unfortunately the deeper you get, the more the heartbreak gives in two a double-edged sword; cuckolded whiner and m
