Episode 13: Episode 33: If Only We Knew the Van Der Beek Oeuvre Slightly Better
Manage episode 328553527 series 2941522
Contestants: Alexander Darby, Peter Broda, Ben Zimmer
Who made the man behind "Happy" cry? What are E-Girls, and why are they ruining my life? What innocuous nursery rhyme did Paul McCartney turn into a UK Top 10 hit? Which James Bond theme drew inspiration from the Hebrew Bible? How does one stuff a wild bikini?
Let's Talk About Love, learn How to Truly Listen, and study pataphysical science as we tour the world of popular music in this single-subject episode that covers proto-punk, punk-pop, thrash metal, '80s synthpop, '90s indie rock, drummers and drumming, the careers of Stevie Wonder and Frank Zappa, and our friendly neighbors in the Great White North alongside several topics that no one requested, including children's TV, French literature, Hindi slang, historical gangsters, BBC quiz shows, the Queens neighborhood where I used to live, and lots and lots of Beatles content. And You Will Know These Contestants by The Trail of Knowledge they display!
