New podcast: 1987's one-hit wonders

Shark01 After our earlier sneak peek at the show, we've finally unveiled the new podcast: the one-hit wonders of '87. It's 40 minutes of pure musical torture, if you ask me. Clearly, the 80s jumped the shark musically sometime during this particular year.

Times pop music critic Sean Daly thinks it's our "Mr. Holland's Opus." By that, I guess he means we'd lose out on any awards to Nicolas Cage. He's just very, very excited and he has no idea what he did or said in the actual show. In fact, I secretly saved our electronic conversation at the moment I uploaded the show. Here it is:

SD: Did you do it? Huh? Did you do it yet? Now? Now? .... Now?

SS: Hang on, my friend. Unless you want to learn to do this, stop massaging my thighs and let me finish.

SD: I thought those were pillows. Seriously, dude, you have smooth thighs.

SS: Isn't there a potential female co-host somewhere you can be drooling over.

SD: Um, yeah. And isn't there some e-mail from Marissa you could answering in the time it takes you to do a simple upload?

SS: Touche.

So there you have it. Click here to download the show or click here to download all our shows for free via iTunes. As always we appreciate your feedback in the form of comments, e-mails and cheese danish.
