204 - Cheap Sunglasses
November 18th, 2024 | 43 mins 21 secs
cheap sunglasses, deguello, eyewear, molasses, sweaters, thick black frames, zz top
The guys listen to the 1979 ZZ Top ode to shitty eyewear... Cheap Sunglasses. Partially about the titular glasses, it's also about stalking a woman because hey! Why not?
-
203 - Fireflies
November 11th, 2024 | 45 mins 9 secs
fireflies, foxtrot, insomnia, lightning bugs, owl city, sock hop
Seth and Marc would like to make themselves believe... that these lyrics are not complete ass. The guys stay up late poring over the lyrics to the nonsense insomniac diddy Fireflies by Owl City. A song about getting hugs ad learning to dance from bugs. Okay...
-
202 - Amber
November 4th, 2024 | 55 mins 3 secs
311, amber, aura, frat guys, from chaos, mood rings
Woooaaah! Seth and Marc struggle to find the real message behind the 311 reggae rock ballad Amber. With lyrics that sound like they were made up on the fly by a horny frat guy trying to get some strange, are we just wasting our time? Probably

201 - Little Red Corvette
October 28th, 2024 | 56 mins
cars, condoms, little red corvette, prince, princetober, women, women as cars
Seth and Marc finish out Princetober with Princes first hit: Little Red Corvette. Yet another episode that compares women to cars and then about having sex with them. But this time, with a little bit of horse imagery as well to make it extra weird.
-
200 - Work That Fat
October 21st, 2024 | 1 hr 18 mins
chubby chasing, diamond and pearls, new power generation, objectification, prince, prince and the new power generation, work that fat
Seth and Marc celebrate episode 200 in the midst of Princetober with the very troublesome Work That Fat. This isn't a single and, in some ways, it's barely a song. A voice-altered Prince makes a bunch of middle school jokes at a fat woman's expense while also saying how much he loves fat women. Yikes.
-
199 - Gett Off
October 14th, 2024 | 1 hr 23 mins
diamonds and pearls, gett off, prince, princetober, rumors, solicitation
Princetober continues with The Guys about Gett Off, a song about a rumor Prince heard about the last time a woman had sex. Seems kind of rude, but it prompts him to let her know that people are talking about her... which also seems a little weird.
-
198 - Sister
October 7th, 2024 | 46 mins 5 secs
dirty mind, incest, prince, princetober, sister, statutory incest rape, statutory rape
Seth and Marc kick off Princetober with his very controversial and very punky song Sister. If you know anything about Prince's hypersexuality, the title should worry you... and with good reason.
-
197 - Kokomo
September 30th, 2024 | 1 hr 9 mins
afternoon sex, carbibean islands, cocktail, kokomo, the beach boys, various vacation spots
This week, Seth and Marc grab a couple of parasols and head down to everyone's favorite destination: Kokomo! A fall from grace from the band that brought us one of the best albums in pop music history, this piece of hot trash is on many lists of worst songs... and the lyrics are definitely a part of that equation.
-
196 - Got My Mind Set On You
September 23rd, 2024 | 56 mins 57 secs
george harrison, got my mind set on you, james ray, money, obsession, precious time, rudy clark, spending money, stalker, time
Seth and Marc get deep into the psyche of an obsessive man depraved of love with the song Got My Mind Set On You as made famous by ex-Beatle George Harrison. Originally written by Rudy Clark and first covered by James Ray, when you start to do some digging, the lyrics bring about more questions than they answer.
-
195 - Wonderwall
September 16th, 2024 | 1 hr 15 mins
britpop, ex-girlfriend hatred, gaslighting, morning glory, oasis, what's the story, wonderwall
The guys bring on dear friend and resident Liam Gallagher hater Fletcher to work through the hit song Wonderwall. A song that was and then was not about Liam's then-girlfriend, the meaning was changed to be about an invisible friend that he's gaslighting... but no one is buying it. Least of all us.
-
194 - Holy Diver
September 9th, 2024 | 1 hr 11 mins
black sabbath, catholicism, dio, elf, holy diver, rainbow, ronnie james dio, snapped chains
Seth and Marc invite past guest favorite Doug (and Rebecca!) to discuss the strangely religious Holy Diver by Dio. Tigers and stripes and hearts and a midnight sea. What the hell?
-
193 - Muskrat Love
September 2nd, 2024 | 58 mins 7 secs
america, captain and tennille, muskrat fucking, muskrat love, muskrat sex, willis alan ramsay
Seth and Marc invite favorite guest Jamie to talk about a song written Willis Alan Ramsay, covered with moderate success by America, and then covered with much greater success by Captain and Tennille... we are, of course, talking about Muskrat Love. One of the only hit songs about a rodent, and the only song about muskrats fucking.
-
192 - Too Close
August 26th, 2024 | 1 hr 15 mins
boner, boners, bump and grind, next, too close
Seth and Marc bump and grind to the late 90's boner-themed Too Close by Next. How did anyone take this song seriously?! A song about getting a hard on from dancing close to a woman who then tells him "enough is enough."
-
191 - Electric Avenue
August 19th, 2024 | 1 hr 15 mins
crooked police, eddy grant, electric avenue, jamaican british, margaret thatcher, racism
Seth and Marc get very deep into the history of Eddy Grant's hit Electric Avenue after a few suggestions from listeners.... and boy, what a background it is. A tale that starts in the 1940s and culminates in a bop with some questionable rhyme schemes.
-
190 - Liquid Dreams
August 12th, 2024 | 1 hr 28 mins
conspiracy theories, emissions in general, hospital visits, liquid dreams, lou pearlman, nocturnal emissions, o-town, orgasm, otown, tlc
A super-size episode! Seth and Marc invite past guests Kristin and Fletcher to talk about the boy band orgasm anthem Liquid Dreams. We discuss whether this song is exclusively about wet dreams, how long it would take of constant coming until you went to the hospital, and Seth's INSANE take on the catalyst for this song.

189 - This Is A Call
August 5th, 2024 | 1 hr 7 mins
dave grohl, fingernails, foo fighters, minocin, nirvana, ritalin, this is a call, visiting
This one's a head scratcher... but is it with good reason? The guys dig deep into the half-assed lyrics for the first Foo Fighters' single This Is A Call looking for some meaning.
