Show notes

This week we are truly broadening our horizons as we discuss the Barry Manilow song I Write the Songs, released in December of 1975. Despite being a sleepy song that even your grandma would think is a little boring, this thing was wildly popular when it came out and we can't figure out why. Also in this prepisode music news of the weird, listener emails and we announce next week's album.
In this episode we discuss easy listening music, everyone Tim is legally required to apologize to and make clarifying statements about, who isn't Canadian, trailers for movie trailers, where music comes from, the movie Weapons and running funny, the mutant Apocalypse, Lucifer and his music, the Force, bellybutton tattoos, William Shatner's new album, Kanye in Russia, mandatory Mandy sessions, and so much more!
