195. Leonard Cohen: Songs of Leonard Cohen (1967)

Yo, sound the bell, school's in, sucker! Just don't tell your parents that you listened to the best podcast about Leonard Cohen and the 195th greatest album of all time, Songs of Leonard Cohen.

 

Before we get to the album, real recognizes real when we talk about the Dunkin' Dutchman's feet, yoga statues, and birthday celebrations. We also discuss card collecting, altering your shorts, and of course...Craigslist Waterbeds! 

 

If you thought the first half of this podcast sucked, hopefully, we can make up for it by bringing out the Ole Lion mascot for a quick halftime show. Oooh lah lah!

.

Then at (1:05:00) we tell some stories of the street and discuss Songs of Leonard Cohen. We cover Leonard Cohen's poetry and musicality and then say good riddance with a list of the best songs about saying goodbye. 

 

Come hang with me next week when we become the best Robyn podcast, and cover her 2010 electropop album, Body Talk. No Coco!

194. Micheal Jackson: Bad (1987)

If you categorize this episode, you would call it the best podcast about Michael Jackson and the 194th greatest album of all time, Bad. You could also call it an SEO scam about the best podcast that gives me a list of albums I can listen to (Reddit confirmed).

 

But before we get to the album, we go deep into the ocean, Titanic style, to talk about cool school teachers, the top 10 country songs of all time, and the MJ touring musical. We also become the best Dungeons & Dragons podcast when we unveil a campaign starring the handyman.

 

Then at (51:00), we discuss Michael Jackson's 1987 album, Bad. We cover Michael Jackson versus Prince, the worst video games (featuring Moonwalker), and the best songs featuring the THX sound.   

 

Next week's episode will feature our master song when we become the best Leonard Cohen podcast and discuss his contemporary folk album, Songs of Leonard Cohen. 

193. Creedence Clearwater Revival: Willy and the Poor Boys (1969)

Some folks are born with silver spoon in hand, and some folks are co-hosts on the best podcast about Creedence Clearwater Revival and the 193rd greatest album of all time, Willy and the Poor Boys. 

 

But before we get to the album we give you a little treat from Big Daddy when we discuss employment qualifications at the Mustang Ranch, agave distillate subscriptions, and the best movies from 1994. Then we head to the store to buy some travel souvenirs and condoms, and it's all business, like changing a tire.     

 

Then at (1:04:00) we take a trip down on the corner to discuss CCR's swamp rock album from 1969, nice. We discuss concept albums, Lead Belly, and get up and down on a list. 

 

Next week's episode is Bad, but at least it's the best Michael Jackson podcast.

192. Beastie Boys: Licensed to Ill (1986)

We are the best podcast about Licensed to Ill. A great fatboys story, the Rock and Roll hall of fame and some native plants. You shut up and listen to this ep.

191. Etta James: At Last! (1960)

Don't get it twisted, according to the transitive property this is the best podcast about Etta James and the 191st greatest album of all time, At Last! Our piece de resistance if you will.

 

This podcast is also the last refuge of the desperate when we sit down at the loser table to discuss the best Sublime songs, the Mouth of the South Jimmy Hart, and whether all sour drinks have egg whites. We also chat about lunch specials, and there's some meat on this bone. 

 

Trust in me, at (55:00) we finally get to Etta James's debut album, At Last! We chat about Chess Records, the best R&B voices, and the most outrageous music take of all time. 

 

Next week you need to fight for your right to listen to the best Beastie Boys podcast when we cover License to Ill.
