  • 244 - Burnin' For You

    August 25th, 2025  |  1 hr 1 min
    blue oyster cult, buck dharma, burnin' for you, heavy metal, soft white underbelly, umlauts

    Seth and Marc get deep into the repetitive lyrics for Blue Oyster Cult's last hit Burnin' For You. What does it all mean and does it even matter when a song rocks this hard?

  • 243 - Two Princes

    August 18th, 2025  |  1 hr 9 mins
    adoration, pocketful of kryptonite, rockets, spin doctors, two princes

    The guys are on a roll and decide to talk about the Spin Doctor's hit song Two Princes. This one leaves a lot of questions to be answered. Who wants to have rockets bought for them? Should that person be trusted? Are these lyrics all about one prince? And why does this guy think "no future" is a selling point?

  • 242 - If You Wanna Be Happy

    August 11th, 2025  |  49 mins 41 secs
    empty marriages, if you wanna be happy, jimmy soul, roaring lion, sexism

    Seth and Marc dust off the ol' classic If You Wanna Be Happy as made famous by Jimmy Soul. Somehow, it manages to simultaneously make "pretty" and "ugly" women feel terrible in one fell swoop and, at the same time, make marriage sound like a worthless endeavor. Impressive!

  • 241 - Real American

    August 4th, 2025  |  1 hr 4 mins
    hulk hogan, jingoism, patriotism, racism, real american, rick derringer, terry bollea, union busting, wwe, wwf

    Seth and Marc discuss the legacy of Terry Bollea (aka Hulk Hogan) before trudging through the jingoistic 2nd grade poetry that is Real American as sung by Rick Derringer. A song that has aged like the Cold War, there is some interesting history to be learned and some talk to be had about what makes someone indefensible.

  • 240 - It's No Good

    July 28th, 2025  |  57 mins 50 secs
    control freak, depeche mode, domineering, it's no good, yowzers

    The guys talk about the Depeche Mode sleeper single It's No Good. Is it a big surprise that this band wrote a macabre song about being obsessed with someone like this? In hindsight, hell no.

  • 239 - Sacred Trust

    July 21st, 2025  |  1 hr 6 mins
    bee gees, one true voice, sacred trust, what in the hell

    Seth and Marc take on another boy band from across The Pond... this time in the form of One True Voice's cover of the Bee Gee's stinker Sacred Trust. What starts off as a bewildering set of lyrics possibly turns into one of the biggest realizations in L2G history!

  • 238 - Hash Pipe

    July 14th, 2025  |  1 hr 7 mins
    hash pipe, santa monica, the green album, transvestite prostitutes, trix, weezer

    Seth and Marc finally rip off the Weezer band aid and talk about the beginning of the decline of the band with their first post-Matt Sharp single Hash Pipe. What is it, what is it about, and how was it written? Does anything matter anymore?

  • 237 - Good Morning Little Schoolgirl

    July 7th, 2025  |  54 mins 19 secs
    blues, cognitive decline, good morning little schoolgirl, predatory behavior, rod stewart, sonny boy williamson

    The guys just can't stay away from Rod Stewart who always has a creepy one in the chamber. This time, it's a blues cover called Good Morning Little Schoolgirl; his first single for Decca Records. Surprisingly, this isn't the creepiest song he does though it does raise the ol' hackles.

  • 236 - Dead In Hollywood

    June 30th, 2025  |  1 hr 3 mins
    dead in hollywood, dracula, etc., horror movies, leather face, murderdolls, vincent price

    Seth and Marc invite good friend and recovering shitty-music lover Nick back to talk about an embarrassing song that is supposedly a "homage" to horror movies by Murderdolls. The song is called Dead In Hollywood and we wish they were.

  • 235 - Always Be My Baby

    June 23rd, 2025  |  1 hr 6 mins
    always be my baby, mariah carey, stage 5 clinger, yikes

    The guys continue with their guest-a-thon when they invite Jamie back to talk about the Mariah Carey stage 5 clinger hit Always Be My Baby. How much of a pass does Mariah get because she's well... Mariah? Not a whole lot.

  • 234 - Werewolves Of London

    June 16th, 2025  |  56 mins 31 secs
    dance crazes that never were, lycanthropy, warren zevon, werewolves of london

    AWOOOOO! Seth and Marc invite close friend and Zevon-lover Fletcher back to talk about Werewolves of London. Is this song about anything deeper than a Chinese food-loving lycanthrope living in England? Seth and James Taylor say yes, but everyone else disagrees.

  • 233 - Concrete Angel

    June 9th, 2025  |  1 hr 13 mins
    child abuse, concrete angel, depression, martina mcrbride, sad, sadness

    The guys invite past guest Kristin back to wallow in the sadness that she created by suggesting Concrete Angel by Martina McBride. Listed number 1 on Rolling Stones' list of saddest songs, this one is just trying to punch you in the face with depression. And it works.

  • 232 - You Get What You Give

    June 2nd, 2025  |  1 hr 33 mins
    anti-establishment, gregg alexander, mercedes-benz smashing, new radicals, whining, you get what you give

    Seth and Marc discuss the one-hit blunder You Get What You Give by New Radicals. A whiny anti-establishment song by someone who is putting out albums paid for by people who are the establishment is a bit of a strange choice and we hate it.

  • 231 - Busy Woman

    May 26th, 2025  |  1 hr 2 mins
    busy woman, double entendres, horny, horny and scary, innuendos, sabrina carpenter, scary

    The guys talk about the ultra-horny (and ultra frightening) lyrics to Sabrina Carpenter's anthem for this fast-paced world; Busy Woman. Dripping wet with sexual innuendos and shooting loads of double entendres everywhere she goes, Sabrina lets us know how quickly she'll come if you want her and also warns us of what happens if you don't.

  • 230 - Blame It

    May 19th, 2025  |  1 hr 16 mins
    blame it, blaming it on alcohol, goose, henny, jamie foxx, patron, predating, t pain

    The guys listen to the extremely predatory Blame It by famed entertainer Jamie Foxx and featuring T Pain. At last; An anthem for men who purposefully get women drunk to lower their inhibitions even after they're told that they don't want to pursue anything sexual.

  • 229 - The Joker

    May 12th, 2025  |  1 hr 1 min
    gaslighting, midnight toker, smoker, steve miller, steve miller band, the joker, toker

    Marc and Seth delve into the last Steve Miller Band song they'll ever do..... maybe. The Joker by Steve Miller Band is a self-referential nightmare with made-up words that were stolen from other songs that made up words AND nearly a whole verse that was stolen. And all for.... THIS?
