E67 Everybody Wants to Rule the World

About this episode

Hop into the car with me as I recount a hilarious ride with my daughter and her friend, where our clashing music choices led to unexpected moments of joy.

Prepare for a star-studded flashback as we recount the SNL 50 Homecoming Concert, where the unexpected twist of Jimmy Fallon launching the night with a Blues Brothers-style act set the tone for the evening. As the stage lights flickered, Eddie Vedder delivered heartfelt tributes through the tunes of Tom Petty and Pearl Jam, while the B-52s, transported us back to the '80s with "Love Shack." And just when you think the night couldn't get more magical, Devo, David Byrne, Post Nirvana, and Jack White made us all fans again.

Our journey wouldn't be complete without delving into tales of classic music that shaped generations. Led Zeppelin's ambitious "Physical Graffiti" offer tales of musical genius and legacy. We reminisce about Tom Petty's chart triumphs, The Smiths', and Tears for Fears 'Songs from the Big Chair' album. With a nod to the power of timeless lyrics, we celebrate the enduring beauty of music, inviting listeners to share their thoughts and memories with us.

"Music in My Shoes" where music and memories intertwine.
