Jun 1601:55:38Tap to summarizeRuss is on load management so we have very special guest, Magic Mike 69 to talk about Frank Sinatra, his phrasing, and the first concept album ever. It's basically like when adult stars have sex with their fans except it would be like our fans are better at having sex on camera. Think about it. We talk what (not) to say to your daughter's prom dates, adult social anxiety, Beck being on tour, and Mike's piano journey. Then we get into old blue eyes as he pretends to be sad (we know the reason he is not) and then we have two seperate lists! Don't be like cave divers and just stop and give up! Down load this ep (which you did if you are reading this.) Next week Big Star and Three/ Sister Lovers.

Then we chat about Merlin Haggard (#1 Merle) and instead of a 100 dumb songs we picked 14 and they rip.
