"Back Here" by BBMak (f/Will Carey)

Epiosde 113

BBMak had it all…good looks, great harmonies, relatable lyrics, and a smash hit single with “Back Here”. Despite the trio’s massive success in 1999, they broke up shortly after the release of their second album a few years later. It took them over 15 years to finally reunite, but did the world miss them, want them, need them so? We’re joined once again by comedian and Between Awesome and Disaster podcast host Will Carey to decide if BBMak are the ones we can’t let go, or if we were lucky to be set free from the misery.

"The Safety Dance" by Men Without Hats (f/Ryan Stick)

Episode 112

Pogoing to new wave music in clubs is a god-given right, and no one knows this better than Men Without Hats frontman Ivan Doroschuck. He got his revenge on the bouncers that tried to keep his feet on the ground by writing “The Safety Dance”, a song that truly defined the mood of the early 80s. Was it the infectious melodies and massive synths that took the song to great heights, or could it POSSIBLY be for another reason (that we’ve LINED UP in this episode)? We’re joined by podcaster and musician Ryan Stick to take a deep dive into Montreal’s favorite synth pop act.

"Gucci Gucci" by Kreayshawn

Episode 111

Our Patreon members voted, and they decided to give us the task of deciding whether Kreayshawn’s viral hit “Gucci Gucci” is unlistenable garbage or a low-key masterpiece that challenges materialism and brand worship. Stay tuned to find out where we landed on this 2011 single that really rides the line between thunder and blunder.

"Insensitive" by Jann Arden (f/Robert Bacon)

Episode 110

In 1996, the Christian Slater rom-com Bed of Roses was released. While it was a disappointment at the box office, it helped launch Jann Arden's 1994 single “Insensitive” onto the US Billboard charts. While Jann is a massive star in Canada, this was her only success in the States. Today, we’re joined by 91 Donkey Lane's Robert Bacon, who shares why this song is the ultimate karaoke jam, and together, we push the envelope of what we can accomplish on a podcast by writing a new verse to the song. How do you rid the sweat after the body bliss? How do you slow your blood after the body rush? We’ll answer these questions (and many more) on today’s episode.

"Bad Day" by Daniel Powter (f/Lex the Lexicon Artist)

Episode 109

Have you ever had a bad day? Sure, we all have. Has Daniel Powter’s 2005 hit “Bad Day” ever made that day better, or has it only served to make it that much worse? This week, we’re joined by rapper Lex the Lexicon Artist to answer this question and help us decide if this Canadian singer-songwriter deserved a few more good days on the Billboard charts.

"Flava in Ya Ear" by Craig Mack (f/Wordburglar)

Episode 108

Craig Mack’s “Flava In Ya Ear” was the first single released by Bad Boy Records in 1994. Despite the track’s success, his album was overshadowed by the massive hype behind labelmate Notorious B.I.G.’s debut record which was released only 7 days later. Mack was left in the shadows, but his story only gets crazier from there. We are joined by podcaster, rapper, and hip-hop fanatic Wordburglar to discuss why the late Craig Mack deserves more credit for his futuristic flow.

"Get Free" by The Vines (f/Matthew Milligan)

Episode 107

Wheatus bassist Matthew Milligan makes his third appearance on the show this week. Instead of going the usual route of discussing an artist he loves, he changed it up by choosing a band that he was unsure about. The Vines were once considered “the saviors of rock n’ roll” by some publications, but in a strange turn of events, at least one of these outlets later apologized for the delivering the crown so flippantly. Should we all have paid more attention to The Vines, or were we lucky to “Get Free” of them when we did? Stay tuned to find out.

"Low" by Cracker

Episode 106

While the 90s were full of bands that got signed during the peak of grunge, few bands had the long history and the genre-bending talent of Cracker. The band first broke with their song “Teen Angst”, but it was “Low” that really delivered them into the ears of the mainstream. Our Patreon supporters wanted us to discuss this one, so we took a crack at it.

"Kiss Me" by Sixpence None the Richer (f/Russ Burlingame)

Episode 105

Christian folk group Sixpence None The Richer had an unexpected mainstream explosion with their song “Kiss Me”, after it was featured in the 90s teen film “She’s All That”. Beyond a few low charting cover songs, however, they quickly fell out of the public consciousness. This week, we’re joined by Russ Burlingame - author of the new book “Best Movie Ever: The Oral History of Elfont & Kaplan’s Josie and the Pussycats” - to discuss the band whose music will always be associated with Rachael Leigh Cook.
